DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE
Saturday, March 14, 2020
TOPIC: NIGHT
Read Genesis 1:1-19
MEMORISE: For His anger is but for a moment, His favor is for life; weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning (Psalms 30:5)
EXPOSITION
Night is a solar season that God created for the benefits of mankind. It demarcates a day from the following one. It is called night, because there will not be enough activities in it, as in the day time. In the day time, there is the sun rising and shining over it. But in the night, God has commanded the moon and the stars to have field day.
One thing about the night is the fact that it harbours evil more than the day, despite the fact that it is a period of the day that there will not be enough light. Those nocturnal dangerous elements, both naturally and spiritually, operate in those unholy hours.
Night symbolises many things in the record of the Bible and the experience of man. The hour of God starts from the night. 'And the evening and the morning...' (Gen. 1:5). Jacob had his life transformation dream in the night (Gen. 28:10-22).
He fought with the angel in the night (Gen. 32). The Passover in Egypt was in the night (Exo. 12). The lamb of the Passover was to be killed in the night. Joshua fought till dusk and called for the light of the day and night to stand still (Jos. 10). Samuel heard the voice of God, thrice, in the night.
Jesus Christ was betrayed in the night, and was tried, three times, in the night (Matt. 26; Mk. 14; Jn. 18). The Psalmist talks about the evils in the night (Psa. 91). The thieves come in the night.
Weeping may endure till the evening or night. One thing is that night stands for many things in the Bible. There is joy in the morning. There are bountiful blessings after the night. What are you passing through now? That could be your night. No matter what characterises your night, there is DAY after your night. There is the morning, coming. Now is your morning.
PRAYER POINTS
1. Father, I sincerely pray that you turn my night to day, with glory and power.
2. Lord, visit all Your children that are passing through difficult nights, and turn such experiences to bright days, for them.
3. Lord God of all flesh, stretch forth Your hands and turn the nightly experiences of Your ministers and members, in places that are hostile to the Gospel to day of victory.
EXTRA READING FOR TODAY: Numbers 31 & John 7
