“Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.”- Psalm 32:11
The word of God commands us to “be glad in the Lord and rejoice,” but sadly, many Christians do not take this commandment seriously, for various reasons.
Although some Christians would love to rejoice and celebrate on a daily basis, they have allowed the storms and challenges of life to completely drown the sound of celebration from their lives.
Gladness of heart, rejoicing and celebration are vital to the overall well being of a person.
Nehemiah 8:10 says that the joy of the Lord is His people’s strength.
Proverbs 17:22 teaches that gladness of heart and joy are like medicine that brings healing to troubled souls. It therefore pays to acknowledge God through thanksgiving, praises and worship.
May God’s joy fill your heart and life always, IJN.
Father, please fill my heart with so much joy that my testimonies will convert souls to Your kingdom IJN.
Shalom!
