Nehemiah 8:10 (NKJV) 10 Then he said to them, “Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”
The redemption of mankind is a serious topic. It has eternal ramifications and consequences.
And if we’re not careful, we can focus so much on the seriousness of it, and the trials that we face in life, that we lose sight of the joy in it.
Remember, our redemption is a miracle of God!
We need to be sure we view it as such and take joy in what that means.
One of the ways we can do this is to remind ourselves of the sin that we have been forgiven for and redeemed from.
That is a bright spot that we can’t ignore.
And we can find joy in knowing that no matter what we face in life, God walks us through it, guiding us by the Holy Spirit.
Take note of the words of Jesus.
John 15:11 (NKJV) 11 “These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full.
And let these words below, penned by Paul, be etched in your heart.
Romans 15:13 (NKJV) 13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Amen 🙏🏻
