Theme: WEEP NO MORE!
Text: Isaiah 30:19, Luke 7:12-17.
Mark 9:17-27, Psalm 30:5-12.
EXHORTATION
"Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. -2 Corinthians 2:14. Glory be to God for His enduring goodness and mercy, for the victory we have in Christ through His death and resurrection. Hallelujah! Indeed, God has been gracious to us since the beginning of this year -every step of the way. The testimonies have been mind-blowing! He has calmed the storms of the enemy for us as we continually march into victory. His name alone be glorified forevermore. Amen.
This month, the LORD has given His word again by declaring to us: Weep No More! There are situations that make people weep in life; Situations you have laboured to sort out and you have exhausted all options, yet with no positive change; situations the devil orchestrated into your life to disgrace you and put you to shame. It could even be that God Himself allows those situations for a purpose --to humble you or bring you to repentance and make you a better person. Whatever it is, the word of the LORD is clear and reassuring: "For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning". Psalms 30:5.
Hannah had her weeping turned into joy when she took her case to God in prayer (1Samuel 1:19-20, 2:1). The woman of Zarephath and that of Shunnem rejoiced when they met God through His prophets [1Kings 17:8-24, 2Kings 4:8-37]. The wife of one of the sons of the prophets got her deliverance from financial hardship and she wept no more when she encountered God through Prophet Elisha [2Kings 4:1-7]. Our mother Sarah attested to the fact that her mourning was translated into joy and laughter, when Isaac was born (Genesis 21:1-7). In like manner, at Nain, the only son of a widow died but was raised back to life, with a reassuring word from Jesus Christ "Weep not" (Luke 7:11-15). You may have been sowing in tears with little or no reward [profit or positive result]. You may have been praying with little or no testimonies. In whatever ways you may have been weeping, your joy has come without fail, in Jesus' Name (Psalm 126:1-6). The Psalmist concludes by saying: "Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness; To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever" -Psalms 30:11-12.
One thing is very pertinent here; all those who had their weeping translated into joy had certain things in common: they were obedient to prophetic instructions, they believed God for Who He is, they took the step of faith with decisive action in the direction of God's word.
My earnest desire is that, as we pray together this month, all trials shall be turned into triumph, all struggles and challenges into breakthroughs and prosperity; weeping shall be turned into joy, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ (Amen).
Remember, with Jesus Christ, Victory is always Sure!
Shalom!
