Streams of Joy Devotional 15 August 2025 by Pastor Jerry Eze
TOPIC: MOVE, MAKE PROGRESS
SCRIPTURE: “Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.” (John 5: 8)
That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.
In our Focal Scripture, apart from instructing the man at the pool of Bethesda to rise and take up his bed, Jesus also instructed him to walk. This was a man who had been stuck in one place as a result of his condition. He had been stagnated by his challenge. He had been unable to walk for years unending; but Jesus showed up, and commanded him to walk. Jesus showed up, and commanded him to do what he previously could not do.
Friend, it’s time to rise and do what you have been unable to do all these years. It’s time to rise and take those steps that the enemy stopped you from taking all along. It’s time to rise and explore the capacities that have been dormant in you. It’s time to rise to the occasion of doing what you have failed to do in the past. It’s time to walk the talk. It’s time to take a step. You may not have everything figured out, but dare to rise and walk.
Walking meant that the man at the pool was not going to remain at the place where he got his healing. He was going to make fresh movements, away from where he met Jesus. He was going to move forward from where his infirmity left him. Jesus is giving you same instruction today: rise and make movements. Rise and make progress. It’s not enough to rise and remain in the same place. Rise and make progress that is discernible.
If indeed you are risen with Christ, stagnation is not a part of the deal. If Jesus has set you free, you have no business remaining at the same place where you have been. Jesus did not set you free so that you can remain on the same level. Jesus raised you so that you can make movements in your walk with him, in your family, marriage, finances, health, vocation, business, etc. Jesus set you free so that you can make fresh movements.
Welcome to that season where you must arise and move. Welcome to that season where stagnation is not allowed.
Psalm 18: 33 says: “He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet, and setteth me upon my high places.”
Declare With Me: I rise, I move, I cannot be stopped, in Jesus’ name!
