Joy To The World

                           Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth; Break forth in song, rejoice, and sing praises - Psalm 98:4.

                  The birth of Jesus brought great joy to the world.  But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; He is the Messiah, the Lord" - Luke 2:10,11. The shepherd and the wise men were filled with great joy when they heard about the birth of Jesus. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy - Mathew 2:10.

                 Our God is the king who rules and reigns over the earth. He had given us the joy of salvation. Restore to me the joy of your salvation - Psalm 51:12. We have an everlasting joy as we have accepted Christ as our Savior. And the ransomed of the Lord shall return, And come to Zion with singing, With everlasting joy on their heads. They shall obtain joy and gladness, And sorrow and sighing shall flee away - Isaiah 35:10.

                  There is fullness of joy in the presence of God. In Your presence is fullness of joy - Psalm 16:11. We can be filled with joy in all circumstances as we are in Christ. My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials - James 1:2. Let us spread this great joy to others so that they will prepare their hearts to receive Christ as king. With trumpets and the sound of a horn; Shout joyfully before the Lord, the King - Psalm 98:6.                                                                  

                          

PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank You for filling us with an everlasting joy. Help everyone’s heart to receive You as king. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
