EUPHORIA Devotional (The spirit of joy, an ecstasy that comes from God) November 25, 2025 HIS FACE SHINES ON YOU REV. AROME E. TOKULA Numbers 6:23 —26 23 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: “Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the way you shall bless the children of Israel. Say to them: 24 “The Lord BLESS YOU and KEEP YOU; 25 The Lord make HIS FACE SHINE UPON YOU, And be GRACIOUS to you; 26 The Lord lift up HIS COUNTENANCE upon you, And give you PEACE.” Under the Law, the high priest blessed the worshippers at the end of their service by speaking these Words of benediction over them. They held those words tight because they knew that the favour of God made things happen for them. The favour of God distinguished them on their jobs and businesses because an integral component of the blessing is the favour of God. A blessed man is favoured. Never forget that you are blessed because you are in Christ you are a blessed person(Ephesian 1:3)! It doesn’t even matter how people treat you! It doesn’t matter what you go through and your challenges – IN CHRIST YOU ARE BLESSED and the blessing is irreversible. Never start your day without reminding yourself that you are the blessed and the favoured one. Your High Priest – Jesus, is sitting in the heavenly shrine in heaven right now and He is declaring over you: _“The Eternal Father of mercy bless you and keep you; The Eternal All able One make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The Eternal Self existent One lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.” To ‘keep’ means to ‘guard, hedge, preserve and direct.’_ It means that God is your protector against evil, losses, scams and He is directing your paths in the right direction. He is causing you to be in the right place at the right time. Your God is your keeper today. To ’make His face shine upon you’ actually means ‘to have God smile upon you in approval.’ It means that you are the One that God has approved. When God approves of you, no man can disapprove of you. Ephesians 1:6 says, “… to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us ACCEPTED IN THE BELOVED.” Because of Jesus ’ sacrifice on the cross, we have God’s approval. The Amplified translation renders it as, “[So that we might be] to the praise and THE COMMENDATION OF HIS GLORIOUS GRACE (FAVOUR and MERCY), which He so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved.” We have God’s commendation because we are in His beloved – Jesus. It has nothing to do with our qualification, who we know or do not know, it has everything to do with Jesus! When God’s face is upon a man or woman, victory and peace is assured! The high priestly blessing pronounced says: “The Lord lift up HIS COUNTENANCE upon you, and GIVE YOU PEACE” and this peace means all round prosperity! It means victory! DECLARE I have a High Priest in the heaven Who speaks life over me and all that I do! His name is Jesus and I boldly declare that the Father’s face shines upon me and all that I put my hands upon to do prospers wonderfully because I am under the watching eyes of my God in Jesus name. PONDER Never start your day without reminding yourself that you are the blessed and the favoured one. #IOFWithPastorArome #MorningDevotion #Euphoria #Devotional #November #TheCaravansAreHere #2025_TheChristOurLord
