Something For Today

Love you all, praying for you. 
 
I just love God’s Word.  It tells you little things, and big things, that you need to know that can change and establish your life.  Here’s something God commands.  Rejoice In The LORD Always, and Again I say rejoice.  That’s for today!  Rejoice means to take joy again.  Joy is something God gives, that comes from Him, but you choose it.  You can walk in it, bask in it, or neglect it.  Since the joy of the LORD is your strength, Rejoicing can only help you, change you, establish you.  On beautiful days, and rainy days, on great days, and days of great uncertainty.  Days when things go your way, and days when it seems the wheels are falling off.  Rejoice in the LORD always.   Jesus said, I will never leave you nor forsake you.  God said even in death the righteous have a refuge.  God said He will supply all your need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.  That means He will supply in the good times and in famine.  Rejoice in the LORD, always.  That means today.  That means right now.  Praying that you will think of the Good that God is, and the Good that He does, and the Good things He gives.  He provides a way, He gives wisdom for the asking, Psalms 34:17 – A horse is vain hope for deliverance; despite all it’s great strength it cannot save.  But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love, to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.  Praying that you will choose to rejoice in the LORD today, to fear Him, to love His presence, and crave His Word.  He will save you and keep you, He will fulfill the purpose of your life, and give you grace to overcome every obstacle.  Praying that your faith and obedience will increase your joy, and you will always choose joy over fear, and faith over fret.  God is able, willing, He loves you. He promised.  Clap your hands all you people, shout to the LORD with cries of joy.  How awesome is the LORD Most High, the great King over all the earth… Within your temple, we meditate on your unfailing love.  God is our refuge and strength, He is always present to help in times of trouble.  Therefore we will not fear though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the middle of the sea…  The LORD almighty is with us, the God of Jacob is our fortress.  Praying that you will rejoice in His Word, His Presence, and His promise today and every day.  What a great habit!  Rejoice – choose joy!  That’s something for today.
 
Love you all,
