PRAISE & WORSHIP

MFM Devotional 4 May 2026 | Monday Message

Choosing to be happy is a powerful decision that can transform our lives. Happiness doesn’t depend on our circumstances but on our attitude and mindset. On this World Laughter Day, let us reflect on the importance of joy and laughter in our lives.

I recall the story of Ade, a man who faced numerous challenges, including financial difficulties and health issues. Despite these hardships, Ade chose to focus on the positives in his life. He found joy in the little things, such as spending time with his family and enjoying the beauty of nature. His infectious laughter and positive attitude inspired those around him. Ade’s story reminds us that happiness is a choice, and we can find joy even in the midst of trials.

Similarly, there’s the story of Nneka, a woman who lost her job during a company downsizing. Instead of succumbing to despair, Nneka chose to trust in God and maintain a joyful heart. She used the opportunity to develop new skills and eventually started her own business. Nneka’s resilience and joyful spirit were a testament to her faith and determination. Her story encourages us to choose happiness and trust in God’s plan, even when faced with setbacks. God’s word reminds us of the importance of joy and laughter.

Proverbs 17:22 says, “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.” Laughter and joy have healing properties and can uplift our spirits. Psalm 126:2 also emphasizes the power of laughter: “Our mouths were filled with laughter, our tongues with songs of joy. Then it was said among the nations, ‘The Lord has done great things for them.” By choosing to be happy, we reflect God’s goodness and attract His blessings.
Philippians 4:4 encourages us to “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!” As we celebrate World Laughter Day, let us choose joy and make it a daily practice.

Remember, happiness is not a destination but a journey. By maintaining a positive attitude and trusting in God’s promises, we can experience true joy and fulfilment.
