Have you thanked Him?
Have you praised Him?
Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?
Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?
1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)
1-3The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.
Circumstances and frustration draining you?
Are they trying to steal your joy?
They CAN drain us, upset us, confused and confound us when they are not going our way.
Don’t let them today.
Be reminded!
Psalm 30:5 (ERV)
…The deepest pains may linger through the night, but joy greets the soul with the smile of morning.
JOY has greeted and smiled on you with the rising of the sun. It has because it is bathed in the new and indomitable mercy of GOD Himself and HIS JOY is so strong it is even “CIRCUMSTANCE proof”
Nehemiah 8:10 (NIV)
…the joy of the Lord is your strength.
That is why GOD encourages us to find JOY in Him at all times even when circumstances dictate otherwise. Because He knows therein lies the strength we need. So we should…
Philippians 4:4 (MSG)
Celebrate God all day, every day. I mean, revel in him!
GOD encourages us that even in the midst of hardship, we can purposefully CHOOSE to live with JOY. In fact, GOD expects that of us. He even equips our SPIRITS for the job so HE is doing the heavy lifiting!!
Galatians 5:22 (ESV)
But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, JOY, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness…
So while difficulty may be inevitable, God's JOY-LADEN truth is unshakeable and it WILL sustain and strengthen you today!
So TRUST HIM for:
Psalm 28:7 (ESV)
The Lord is my strength and my safe cover. My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. So my heart is full of JOY. I will thank Him...
“Joy is thankfulness, and when we are joyful, that is the best expression of thanks we can offer the Lord…”― Thaddeus of Vitovnica...
Have an AMAZING weekend!
I love you all!
