Our Daily Manna Devotional 22 July 2018
TOPIC: LAUGHTER IS COMING! ISAAC IS NEAR!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: GENESIS 21:1-12
I woke up early in the morning of Saturday 21st April, 2018. Still on my bed, I picked up an old edition of Our Daily Manna (ODM). It was the January to March edition of 2015. Sometimes I do that as I am led! I opened it and started glossing through some of the old stories therein. Suddenly these words dropped into my spirit, “LAUGHTER IS COMING.”

Oh, what great words of courage, hope and encouragement. I do not know who I have been sent to today, something is sure for some one reading this write-up today: LAUGHTER IS COMING! When Sarah went to bed the night before the angels visited her home in Genesis 18, little did she know that the following day, the good news of the birth of Isaac (laughter) would be broken to her. But alas, angels visited her home and there was a complete turnaround.
A Carrier Of Good News Of Laughter Will Visit Your Life This Season In Jesus Name! When the army of Syria captured the little girl and she became a housemaid in the house of General Naaman, little did he (Naaman) know that laughter was coming his way (2 Kings 5) and little did the little maid know that she was going to SEE LAUGHTER MANIFEST THROUGH HER TO HER GENERATION!

Listen: You cannot become AN AGENT OF LAUGHTER RUBBING OFF ON YOU! In no distant time, Naaman’s leprosy of many years became history!There is something around you that will cause you to laugh and laugh this season!That season is coming! IT IS SO NEAR!That is why you MUST NEVER QUIT NOW! Refuse to quit before your laughter shows up! Abraham nearly quit trusting God before ISAAC(LAUGHTER) was born!
What he got is called, ISHMAEL – a source of sweat and blood on earth today! Learn from his human mistake! Don’t run ahead of God to create your own laughter! It will turn to TEARS! Hold on till your laughter comes because I have just been shown again: Very soon! Very, very soon, you too will laugh your own laugh and dance your own dance in Jesus name! Pray now!
