"[20]After the flood, Noah began to cultivate the ground, and he planted a vineyard.
[21]One day he drank some wine he had made, and he became drunk and lay naked inside his tent.
[22]Ham, the father of Canaan, saw that his father was naked and went outside and told his brothers.
[23]Then Shem and Japheth took a robe, held it over their shoulders, and backed into the tent to cover their father. As they did this, they looked the other way so they would not see him naked."Genesis 9

When miracles happen, caution should not be thrown away. When you are happy, you cannot afford to be careless. This is because there are dangers lurking around to be avoided.

In joy, it is possible to be drunk in any form which can cause you to reveal top secrets to people who should not know them. The consequences are always grave.

In the Scriptures quoted above, after Noah and his household members were saved from the flood that swept the whole inhabitants of the Earth away, God also blessed the work of Noah's hands. What followed? He was overjoyed to the extent that he exposed his nakedness to his children.

Not only that, he destroyed the destiny of the son who saw his nakedness. All because he over enjoyed himself in comfort.

Therefore, it is essential to watch your actions and reactions when you have just received a miracle or a letter of joy in any form. An hour of joy will not bring destruction to you and your household in Jesus mighty name
Stay blessed and prepared for the imminent coming of the Lord.
