« You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore »
17 Though the fig tree may not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines; though the labor of the olive may fail, and the fields yield no food; though the flock may be cut off from the fold, and there be no herd in the stalls—
18 Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
19 The Lord God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, and He will make me walk on my high hills.
Nehemiah 8:10 says the joy of the Lord is your strength.
Joy produces strength and strength is the ability to do work.
- Joy is the energy drink that heaven gives you to keep you strong and healthy enough to work.
The thing about this energy drink is that it has different concentrations, depending on how much of it is needed per time.
The one with the smallest concentration is what I will call regular joy.
You are supposed to have a dose of it every morning.
Psalm 30:5 says weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning.
People who suffer depression find it difficult to even stand from their beds in the morning.
If you are experiencing any form of depression or sadness, I pray that the Lord will fill you with joy and strengthen you, in Jesus’ name.
One of the ways of getting joy is through hearing good news. Psalm 51:8GNT says,
« Let me hear the sounds of joy and gladness; and though you have crushed me and broken me, I will be happy once again »
A brother returned from work so tired he refused dinner and just went to bed. As soon as he got to his room, his fiancée came to visit. His mother welcomed her but said the brother was very tired and had gone to bed. However, the brother heard his fiancée’s voice and rushed out. He went to his mother and asked what he could offer the young lady. She replied, “There is rice but you will have to cook it”. He said, “No problem, I will cook”. The mother looked at him with surprise, wondering how he who had been too tired to even eat was now ready to cook. The good news that his fiancée was around had given him strength that even he did not know he had.
You will hear good news every morning, in Jesus’ name.
- The word of God is good news, it gives joy.
Study it every morning; you will experience joy and receive strength. Jeremiah 15:16ISV says
« Your words were found, and I consumed them. Your words were joy and my hearts delight, because I bear your name, LORD God of the Heavenly Armies »
Before you read the newspapers or blogs where you will most likely hear bad news, read the word of God to get the good news you need to strengthen you for the day.
Application – God’s word energises you for your daily activities.
