Rejoice
The way you become joyful is to rejoice in the Lord. The joy of the Lord is inside you if you are born again. You have to stir up that joy that is in you and as you rejoice, which is part of praising, the strength of the Lord becomes yours. Remember Nehemiah 8:10 which says that the joy of the Lord is your strength. Also, recall Psalm 8:2 which says this: Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. Jesus quoted this scripture in Matthew 21:16. …And Jesus saith unto them, yes; have ye never read, Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings thou hast perfected praise. Here Jesus was telling us that praise is the foundation of our strength in the Lord.
Today let’s look at scriptures on rejoicing. Take these scriptures and speak them until the praise of the Lord rises in you. As you can imagine, many of the references will be in the book of Psalms.
