The Joy of The LORD

PRAISE THE LOVE OF Our Lives, THE LORD GOD JESUS CHRIST!

For God so loved the world, that He gave His ONLY begotten Son; That whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  {17} For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. - SAINT JOHN 3:16-17 - Emphasis mine.

Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength. - NEHEMIAH 8:10

JESUS GREETINGS Friends,

     When JESUS CHRIST, our LORD AND GOD {SAINT JOHN 20:28} Chose to SUFFER AND DIE On a Roman CROSS, RESURRECTING FROM THE DEAD For our sakes {SAINT JOHN 19:30, SAINT JOHN 20}, we, as believers in HIM, HIS BLOOD, AND in HIS POWERFUL, YET LOVING NAME, have Received all the benefits that King David Spoke upon in PSALM 103.  The Psalmist declares that we will "...Bless the LORD...and forget not all His benefits {PSALM 103:1-3}."  One of these benefits is ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD FORGIVING all our sins or iniquities {PSALM 103:3}.  Another benefit is ALMIGHY JEHOVAH GOD's Healing of all our diseases {PSALM 103:3}.  Sure, these promises bring hope and comfort as do all the HOLY SCRIPTURES to all of us who have receive3d the free Gift of Salvation by Grace and through the Faith of and in THE LORD GOD JESUS CHRIST {EPHESIANS 2:8-9}.

     With this in mind, we need to ascertain that when times are good, and we are abiding consistently in a place of faith and holy-rest in our LORD AND GOD JESUS CHRIST, we would do good to remember these "good days", knowing that ALMIGHTY GOD Has Delighted in us {PSALM 147:11} HIS PURCHASED BYTHE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF CHRIST {ACTS 20:28} Children.  In contrast, however, when things aren't going well in our lives, it would do us a great deal of assurance as we remember to find our "Joy" in JESUS and not in our circumstances.  My mind brings me to the remembrance of how far my LORD AND SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST Has ALREADY BROUGHT me.  HE'S BROUGHT me through three major spinal cord surgeries, two minor ones, being placed in a mental facility from the age of 10 at least 24 or25 times, sicknesses, disease, and all manor of adversarial complications, yet my faith is stronger now today than it's ever been.  As a matter of truth, as I type this, I'm recovering from two minor surgeries to heal a flesh wound on my body.  HALLELUJAH!  GOD IS GOOD, MIGHTY, GREAT, AND GREATLY TO BE PRAISED!  HALLELUJAH!

     In today's Foundational HOLY BIBLE SCRIPTURE we see Nehemiah and our brethren having completed the wall in Jerusalem in fifty-two days {NEHEMIAH 6:15}.  This brief moment of construction was in itself a Miracle of ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD, THE PRECIOUS HOLY GHOST, AND JESUS CHRIST, THE SON OF GOD, in that the building of a sturdy wall as the one built in Jerusalem is normally, I'm sure, more than a fifty-two day project.  However, the HOLY BIBLE exclaims that "the people had a mind to work {NEHEMIAH 4:6}".  This mind to work showed forth a unified spirit amongst our brethren, and it is exactly this same unity that caused the people to hear the Book of The Law of ALMIGHTY GOD, and weep when they realized they had not been keeping it {NEHEMIAH 8:9}.  If only we would have a heart like this concerning ALMIGHTY JESUS'S HOLY WORD!  This mourning was seen of ALMIGHTY GOD, and HIS HOLY SPIRIT INSPIRED Nehemiah to encourage the Children of Israel with these  comforting words:

Then he said unto them, Go your way, eat the fat, and drink the sweet, and send portions unto them for whom nothing is prepared: for this day is holy unto our Lord: neither be ye sorry; for the joy of the LORD is your strength. - NEHEMIAH 8:10

     This Popular HOLY BIBLE VERSE Demonstrates HOLY GOD'S HEART FOR us HIS People, in that it tells us not to mourn but instead to rejoice.  The only way any of us can truly rejoice is By The GRACE of ALMIGHTY JESUS CHRIST, our LORD AND GOD!  When we are downtrodden, our remembering where JESUS Has Brought us from, Helps to Equip us with the necessary memorial articles within our minds and hearts whereby we might attend to the truth of HIS GREAT DELIGHT In HIS Giving unto us the desires of our hearts {PSALM 37:4}.  

     When we have joy, we have hope.  When we have hope we have faith.  We cannot please ALMIGHTY JEHOVAH GOD without faith {HEBREWS 1:6}.  However, with faith in the FINISHED WORK OF CHRIST JESUS {SAINT JOHN 19:30, SAINT JOHN 20}, we can do all things {PHILIPPIANS 4:13}.  So, please remember that NOTHING is too hard for our GOD {GENESIS 18:14}.  If GOD Said it in HIS WORD, HE'S GOING TO DO IT!  Your Joy will be fulfilled; fulfilled only through ONE NAME and ONE WORD, JESUS!  "Little children keep yourselves from idols.  Amen {1 JOHN 5:21}."
