O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory. (Psalm 98:1)
Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. (Philippians 4:4)

The joy of the Lord is our strength

Paul teaches that in addition to patience and long-suffering, Christians should also cultivate joy and gratitude. The Christian life is not just about enduring afflictions but celebrating the blessings of God. Joy attracts joy and gratitude attracts more reasons to be grateful. Christians who are diligent in using language of gratitude and joy will receive more blessings from God. The joy of the Lord is our strength and it is important to remember that God calls us to rejoice, even in the midst of trials. We have many reasons to be joyful, including our secure life in the Lord, the promise of victory over Satan, access to the power of God, and the blessings God has promised us on Earth and in eternity. Let us cultivate joy and gratitude in our lives. Read more...
