Does this Facebook post find you rejoicing? Actually, rejoicing ALL DAY LONG! Maybe I hear you responding, “What are you saying? You have no idea what I am putting up with here today. You’ve got no idea of the fiery trial I am enduring.”
Yes, I know. You can’t always rejoice in your circumstances. David went through many trying and difficult times, often nearly to the point of death. He couldn’t rejoice in His sufferings, but what did he do instead? He rejoiced in the name of the Lord. Psalm 89:16 says: “IN THY NAME shall they rejoice ALL THE DAY.” Can I encourage you to lift up your eyes from your problems and instead trust in the name of the Lord? You can’t trust in man. You can’t trust in all that’s happening around you. But you CAN trust and rejoice in the name of the Lord.
Proverbs 18:10 says: “The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.”
Rejoice in the name of the Lord. Your circumstances may not change but your attitude will. Instead of turmoil you’ll have peace. And the atmosphere of your home will change.
Psalm 71:8: “Let my mouth be filled with thy praise and with thy honor ALL THE DAY.”
Be blessed.
