*“LAUGHING SESSIONS”*

_(Laugh Your Way To Victory)_

*TO THE BIBLE:*
*Psalm 2:4* 
_“He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall hold them in derision.”_

*LET’S TALK*

Psychologists have identified a common trait in people who thrive despite difficult circumstances. It’s called *“cognitive reframing”*—the ability to find humour or perspective in hard situations. They aren’t pretending problems don’t exist; they’ve simply learnt that how you interpret an event shapes how that event affects you.

The Bible reveals an even more powerful truth: when you see your circumstances through the eyes of God’s Word, you can respond with joy instead of fear. That’s why Proverbs 17:22 declares that *“A merry heart does good, like medicine, but a broken spirit dries the bones.”* Why wouldn’t you laugh when you know that you’re more than a conqueror? Why shouldn’t you laugh when you know that all things work together for your good?

Refuse to allow circumstances dictate your happiness. It doesn’t matter what comes against you in life; learn to laugh your way to victory. Unsatisfactory grades, drama with friends, online pressure, family issues—none of these get to decide your joy. The opening scripture shows us that God laughs at the ranting of His enemies. Like your Heavenly Father, learn to laugh the enemy to scorn when he starts throwing his tantrums at you. When tough times come, that’s the time to laugh, for there’s absolutely nothing the enemy could do to harm you.

No wonder the Apostle James admonished that you *“…count it all joy when you fall into various trials”* (James 1:2). If you’ve been facing trying times, I recommend to you *“Laughing sessions.”* Sit all by yourself and meditate on the victorious life Christ has brought you into, and begin to laugh! At first, you might even look ridiculous to yourself, but keep at it. It won’t be long before you’ll find yourself declaring the Word of God that’ll change everything. Glory, Hallelujah!

*GO DEEPER*

*Psalm 126:1-2* When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. *2* Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them.

*Proverbs 17:22* A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.

*SPEAK*

_I’m laughing my way through life, from victory to victory and from glory to glory! I laugh at the devil and challenging circumstances because I know I can never be disadvantaged. I’m soaring high on the wings of the Spirit. My mouth is filled today with laughter and my tongue with the songs of triumph, in Jesus’ mighty Name. Amen._

*DAILY BIBLE READING*

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6TH 2025 LET THE GOSPEL BE YOUR PASSION For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth... (Romans 1:16). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of God to save, heal, deliver and transform lives. That’s why it must be a message you understand, live by, and burn with passion to share with others especially as the coming of the Lord draws nearer than we’ve ever known. Paul the Apostle declared that he was not ashamed of the Gospel. That statement came from a place of deep conviction and unwavering commitment. For him, preaching the Gospel wasn’t optional but life itself. He lived for the Gospel and was willing to die for its advancement. Read His inspiring and heart-stirring words in Acts 20:22-27, “And now, behold, I go bound in the spirit unto Jerusalem, not knowing the things that shall befall me there: Save that the Holy Ghost witnesseth in every city, saying ...

RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL

  SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 16TH 2025 THE KINGDOM, THE FIELD, AND THE SEED Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field (Matthew 13:24). PASTOR CHRIS OYAKHILOME Dsc. Dsc. DD. The Lord Jesus, in His remarkable teachings about the Kingdom, used parables to unveil profound truths. One of such examples is the parable of the wheat and tares in Matthew 13. He said, "...the kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field" (Matthew 13:24). That "man" is the Lord Himself, while the "good seed" represents the children of the Kingdom. The "field," as He later explained, is the world. This is extraordinary. The Lord sowed good seed, not in someone else's field, but in His own field. That tells you the world is His field and part of His Kingdom. It belongs to Him. No matter what we see in the world today, no matter how polluted it appears, the field still b...
