Christian Perspectives - Rejoice And Be Glad In The Lord


Rejoice And Be Glad In The Lord

Greetings Reader

Good Morning, or whatever time you are reading this email. According to the calendar, today is Friday the 13th. Do you know what that means? Yes, we are one day closer to the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Plus, it's another day for us to rejoice and be glad in the Lord.

In the Psalms, David often made a contrast between the godly and the ungodly. He encouraged the godly to rejoice and be glad in the Lord. He also sent a warning to the enemies of the Lord. In Psalm 68, he suggested ways that the Lord could deal with the ungodly. Things are different today because we know how God is going to deal with them.

What happens when we come to the place of rejoicing and praising God with a testimony on our lips? With David, he wanted to tell everyone about God's power and mighty strength in the heavens. Since we know the destination of the ungodly maybe we too should do as David and tell everyone about God. Enjoy today's post.

God Bless

When You are Depressed And Feel Far From God Greetings Reader Have you ever felt so depressed that it seemed like everything was going against you? Even David in Psalm 13 experienced a depressed state of mind. Four times he asked of God, "how long?" · How long will you forget me? · How long will you look the other way? · How long must I struggle? · How long will my enemy have the upper hand? Fortunately David didn't stay in that mindset. Depression doesn't need to get the best of us. It...

The Lord Is Our Strength, Whom Shall We Fear Greetings Reader What assurance do we have that the Lord is with us and will provide us with His strength? Outside of our own experiences with Him, the only other assurance we have is the Word of God. David wrote many of the Psalms that encourage us to worship, praise and trust God through all our circumstances. Psalm 27 focuses not so much on David asking God to get rid of his enemies, but instead that his relationship with the Lord would grow...

Stand Before God And Declare His Praises Greetings Reader Could you stand before God and say the words David wrote in the final verse of Psalm 26? He said, Now I stand on solid ground, and I will publicly praise God. David did not live a perfect life. Once, God sent Nathan to David to expose a series of sins that David wanted to keep hidden. Yet, throughout the Psalms, we can read the evidence of David's changed heart. In today's Psalm, the king declared his innocence and the integrity of his...
