Rejoice In The Word!!

-
Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice (Philippians 4:4).
The Word of God leaves us in no doubt as to the way we ought to live as Christians. We ought to live a happy and joyous life always. You ought to ‘rejoice’ in the Lord, no matter what happens around you. I want you to notice the double emphasis on the word “rejoice” in the opening scripture. It lets us know that it’s your season to rejoice and the set time for your joy to be full!
“What if the circumstances of my life aren’t such that should give room for singing and rejoicing?” You might want to ask! Well, respond with songs and rejoice all the same! You have to understand that your happy spirit dictates what goes on around you. Refuse to allow the circumstances of life dictate your joy. I’m talking about being joyful in the Spirit-the kind of joy that transcends physical circumstances and emotions and responds with songs! When your faith is challenged, that’s the time to rejoice and sing unto the Lord.

Understand that sin, sickness, poverty, failure and the devil have all been defeated; so nothing can successfully stand against you! No wonder the Bible says to you, “rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory” (1 Peter 1:8)! Refuse to allow anything make you sad, discouraged or despondent, for you were born into the life of rejoicing. You don’t need a comedian or humorist to make you joyful; the joy of the Lord is in your spirit! So, learn to be joyful; and to respond in faith with singing unto the Lord. Hallelujah!

What does the Bible say about setting goals?

The Bible offers a balanced approach to setting goals that includes making plans yet doing so with wisdom and humility. Jesus’ illustration of building a tower implies that it is a good thing to have set goals ( Luke 14:28 ). To live with no motivation or planning is not God’s desire.  Proverbs 6:6-11  says, “Go to the ant, O sluggard;     consider her ways, and be wise. Without having any chief,     officer, or ruler, she prepares her bread in summer     and gathers her food in harvest. How long will you lie there, O sluggard?     When will you arise from your sleep? A little sleep, a little slumber,     a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber,     and want like an armed man.” Laziness causes a person to neglect work and fail to exploit the window of opportunity. Summer is the preparation time for winter, and we dare not wile it away. Failure to plan ahead will result in “poverty” and “want.” Wisely setting goals leads to better results: “Th

How do I know if I am a Christian?

Jesus taught that the condition of a person’s heart will manifest itself in his or her behavior: “No good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. Each tree is recognized by its own fruit. People do not pick figs from thornbushes, or grapes from briers. A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart” ( Luke 6:43–45 ; cf.  Matthew 7:16 ). So, when considering whether or not you are a Christian, you can consider the kind of fruit that is produced in the life of a Christian: 1.  Complete trust in Christ’s death and resurrection as sufficient payment for the debt we owe God.  A Christian is one who  trusts Christ  exclusively. Doubts come when we fear we must add something to the work of Christ to ensure our salvation.  Ephesians 2:8–9  makes it clear that we are not saved by our works, but by God’s grace alone. No matter how righteous we may appear, none of us come close to e
