“But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.” Psalm 5:11 (KJV)
What a great thought: Trust breeds joy! Of course, the One in whom you trust is important. The Psalmist is encouraging a rousing event of hallelujahs.
Rejoice because you trust in God. Shout for joy because God has defended you from the enemy. And just generally be joyful, all the time, because you love His name. Just let those rays of joy shine out throughout the day . . . everyday.
Stop and think for a moment. What your day would be like if you walked joyfully . . . if you talked joyfully . . . if your attitude was joyful? What would your week be like if all these were true of you? What about the month and year . . . your life? It would make a difference, don’t you think?
Revolutionize your life. Begin right now to trust God and start rejoicing. When He defends you, no one can defeat you! That is reason to love Him and shout for joy. It is enough to make you love Him.
Dear Father, thank you for your love and care. Thank you for being our defender. Empower us with the joy that comes from trust you. This I pray in the name of Jesus. AMEN
Be encouraged today by rejoicing in God,
