KEY VERSE: “They that sow in tears shall reap in joy” (Psalm 126:5).
TEXT: Psalms 126:1-6 (KJV)
1 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.
3 The Lord hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad.
4 Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as the streams in the south.
5 They that sow in tears shall reap in joy.
6 He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
Life has many twists and turns and ups and downs. There are good and bad times, just as we have day and night. But there are instances when the bad times appear so long and tough and do not seem to have an end. At such times, one tends to despair and resign to fate, especially when all possible efforts to seek a solution have been exhausted. But no matter how long, dark, and stormy a night may seem, there will always be the break of day.

Today’s Psalm offers us hope in trouble and tears. It assures us that the times of trouble do not last. The Psalm looks back to when the captives of Judah returned to Jerusalem following their long captivity in Babylon. They had suffered much and for so long in captivity, and suddenly, they found themselves back in their homeland, free again! This sudden turn of events appeared too good to be real to them. They seemed to be in such a sweet dream from which they did not wish to be awakened! But it was not a dream; they truly have been set free. Their long night of captivity has broken into a bright day of freedom and joy. No more sorrow; no more tears!
No matter what we may be going through, an end is in sight. You may be experiencing hard times or gripped by sorrow. Your medical report may not give you any chance of survival. The economy and other situations in the land may appear bleak and offer no hope of reprieve. No matter the situation, don’t throw hope away; don’t give up in despair. The morning of joy is coming.

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
