JOY COMES WITH MORNING
As a woman is about to give birth, there is much sorrow and pain in labor,
but as soon as her baby is born there is joy that is so strong it overcomes
any grief in struggling to bring the baby forth. The same is when Jesus
gave His life at Calvary so that we would be born anew in Him. What gave
Him strength to endure His suffering was the joy set in front of Him
knowing that the price He paid would be the life we would receive.
Now, My children, to enter into the Kingdom comes much tribulation and
suffering, but what should motivate you to endure and overcome is the
joy that is set before you, for if you die in Christ, you rise in Him also a
new creation glorified as He is, for truly suffering lasts for only a night,
but joy comes with morning!
I want you to say that you can do all things through Christ who
strengthens you. Whether you live or die it is all for the purpose of the
Kingdom. It doesn't matter what price we pay to totally die out to the self
life in order to allow Christ to live through you.
He walked it first blazing the trail so that we could walk it courageously by
His spirit in us. He prepared the way that we could walk in it. The joy set
before us is everlasting life, peace, joy and righteousness, and glory
unspeakable. We have so much to look forward to for our spirit man will
live forever with Him. This shell we live in is temporal. If we fight for our
life, we will lose it, but if we let it go, we will gain it. So what do we have
to lose, for the absence of the body brings the total fullness and presence
of the Lord.
So I call you this day to persevere hardships and count the cost. Fear not
what is ahead for we have won already the battle. If we are covered with
the blood of the Lamb and are following our Captain, we will arrive at the
shores of the pearly gates with angelic hosts ushering us in.
His presence will be very strong. His arms are open wide, and He is
waiting for our return. He knew His people before the foundation of the
earth. He knew us before we were born. He knew who would turn to Him,
because our names were already written in the Lamb's book of Life.
He came to give us life by offering up His life as a sacrifice, a pure and
spotless Lamb, making us fit for the Master's use. What a mighty God we
serve!
So when the enemy tempts you to look at your life, at any suffering or
pain, you can say back to him, "Be gone! I have already given My life a
sacrifice to serve the Lamb wherever He may go. The price has already
been paid. The victory has been won! I will live forever, and you satan,
will be in torment forever for the choice that you have made!".
Joy comes with the morning; suffering only lasts through the night.
