Rejoice in Him in All Things!

(today's devotion is brought to you by Sarah)

Scripture Reference: Philippians 4:4-13

God wants us to rejoice in His name and have faith in His works.

When we get into trouble, it’s unlikely that we feel like giving thanks. Perhaps what fills our minds are regrets & worries. God wants us to realise that in spite of our concerns, He has a great plan for us and can take care of what is bothering you. God is telling us to believe that w are able to “do everything through Him who gives me strength.” Indeed, “in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”

The reason Paul is able to say all that with confidence is that he has learnt to be content in every situation & he has experienced first hand the goodness of God who gives him strength even in trying times. If you are unable to experience or believe in God during tough moments, perhaps you could check your heart, to see who or what is reigning there.

Then seek Him out.Tell him of your good days, your bad days and most of all trust in Him to pull you through. The Devil may make things seem dark and without any future, but God will turn those circumstances around to bring us great blessings and to glorify His name. He is fully capable of turning lemons into lemonade!

The more we trust in God, the more we will be able to see Him come through for us.

Therefore, we can rejoice in the Lord! All the help & blessings come from Him! Rejoice that you have a God who loves you so much He not only sent His only Son, Jesus to die for you, but cares about every detail of your life and has given you the privilege to go to Him 24/7.

Take Him up on His offer & you will find Him strengthening you with His joy!
