HE GIVES US JOY

Psalm 19:1The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands. 2 Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they reveal knowledge.  3 They have no speech; they use no words; no sound is heard from them.  4 Their voice goes out into all the earth, their words to the ends of the world.

 We can see God's glory all around and in us, and His presence gives us a feeling of joy. The transformation that has taken place in our lives comes from the joy and peace we receive from Him through The Word.  When we observe the power and blessings of God, we can't help but praise Him.  There have been times that I would stand through the whole Church service; because of the overwhelming feeling of God's presence around me and the joy in my Heart because of Him.  God created us from nothing, just like He created the world, and in light of His creation, our purpose is to do His work and to live with joy in our hearts.  Knowing He is Lord and our Savior.

Father, Your will, is perfect for our Souls; Your promise is trustworthy, and Your love gives us joy. Lord, Your rules and standard for a living are righteous, and it gives joy and peace to our hearts.  Father, Your wisdom and knowledge have the power to establish us in a place of permanence. Lord, the love, joy, and peace that Your Word provides is more precious than gold; it is sweeter than honey, and being obedient servants of the Word.  Thank You, Lord, for the forgiveness of our hidden faults, and forgive us for willful sin against You; let not our fleshly desires rule over us.  Father, thank You for keeping us through the night, and bless the families of those who were called home; and we pray that they had given their Souls to You.   Lord, You are with us, the Mighty Warrior who saves us; thank You for taking great delight in us, and because of grace, You will no longer rebuke us, in Jesus' name, Amen.
