REJOICE IN OUR NEW LIFE

Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.

‭Philippians 4:4 KJV‬

The first word the Lord spoke to the women when He resurrected was , Rejoice! The Bible says, “Along the way, Jesus suddenly appeared in front of them and said, “Rejoice!” They were so overwhelmed by seeing him that they bowed down and grasped his feet in adoring worship.” (‭Matthew 28:9 TPT‬)

We should rejoice as the Lord commanded us irrespective of our circumstances for this is the new life our Heavenly Father gave us in Christ. God is the only giver of good gifts.

Remember what the Jewish authorities did upon hearing the good news of resurrection, “The chief priests met with the elders and made their plan; they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers and said, “You are to say that his disciples came during the night and stole his body while you were asleep.” (‭Matthew 28:12-13 GNT‬) The enemy will stop at nothing to steal our joy with pressures from our everyday life, or even the bad news of the world .

Therefore, let us always be armed with the joy of the gospel “Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.” This is the new life the Lord has made and we shall be happy and be glad in it!

WE PRAY FOR THE GRACE TO REJOICE ALWAYS IN JESUS NAME AMEN!

THANK YOU JESUS!
