Last night, Andres Bisonni gave a precious message, but this one comment he made stood out to me above the rest:
If we are Christians, we truly have something to REJOICE about!
Here are some reasons right here:
Psalm 146:5-10
Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob,
whose hope is in the Lord his God,
the Maker of heaven and earth,
the sea, and everything in them—
the Lord, who remains faithful forever.
He upholdsthe cause of the oppressed
and gives food to the hungry.
The Lord sets prisoners free,
the Lord gives sight to the blind,
the Lord lifts up those who are bowed down,
the Lord loves the righteous.The Lord watches over the alien
and sustains the fatherless and the widow,
but he frustrates the ways of the wicked.The Lord reigns forever,
your God, O Zion, for all generations.Praise the Lord!
Andres shared these scriptures with us last night. Blessed are WE whose God is the God of Jacob! He is our help and He remains faithful forever! He cares and provides for us! He sets the captives free and gives sight to the blind. He lifts us up, watches over us, and sustains us.
Yes, we have a reason to SHOUT and REJOICE!
I am linking with Barbie for her Fresh Brewed Sundays. We share a scripture with our thoughts. If you would like to join along or read other posts like this, click on Barbie’s button below.
Sometimes I think adult Christians need to sing the song we all learned as kids “Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say rejoice (clap)(clap)!” Thanks for the encouraging word 🙂
Even in the midst of hard seasons, there is always something to rejoice in. He is worthy of my heart rejoicing in Him. Be blessed this week my friend.
Yes we do have reason to shout for joy! After all, we are redeemed and forgiven. My heart is so thankful for that.
Blessings and love,
Debbie
