Grace and Peace be multiplied unto you, through the knowledge of God and of Jesus Christ. Beloved, today you have moved into a new phase in your 21 day journey. Today is day number 11. You have moved into double digit days on your journey. Congratulations to each and every one of you. That is awesome. Remember this is a process. You don’t have to be perfect, but you want to be committed.
For me, day number 11 is always a good time to rejoice. Why? Because at this point, I have passed the half way mark. So I want to give God the credit. I am transforming, by renewing my mind today, by rejoicing in hope. This is what the Apostle Pail tells us to do in Romans 12. Here is the text:
KJV
Rom. 12:12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;
Rejoice in the hope of victory. Rejoice now in what God said he will do. So rejoice with me today.
This text is awesome because it encourages us to praise the LORD for the victory he has brought us to. Let’s look at the text.
NLT
Psa. 98:1 ¶ Sing a new song to the LORD,
for he has done wonderful deeds.
His right hand has won a mighty victory;
his holy arm has shown his saving power!
Psa. 98:2 The LORD has announced his victory
and has revealed his righteousness to every nation!
Psa. 98:3 He has remembered his promise to love and be faithful to Israel.
The ends of the earth have seen the victory of our God.
Psa. 98:4 ¶ Shout to the LORD, all the earth;
break out in praise and sing for joy!
Psa. 98:5 Sing your praise to the LORD with the harp,
with the harp and melodious song,
Psa. 98:6 with trumpets and the sound of the ram’s horn.
Make a joyful symphony before the LORD, the King!
Psa. 98:7 ¶ Let the sea and everything in it shout his praise!
Let the earth and all living things join in.
Psa. 98:8 Let the rivers clap their hands in glee!
Let the hills sing out their songs of joy
Psa. 98:9 before the LORD.
For the LORD is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with justice,
and the nations with fairness.
Beloved, this text is encouraging us to sing and new song, shout to the LORD, break out in praise and sing for joy. We should sing our praises with the harp, with trumpets, and make a joyful symphony before the LORD. Nothing about our worship should be subdued.
Rejoice beloved because VICTORY belongs to you. Drink all the water you can and hang in there.
Live Life on Purpose and Not By Mistake,
Yours Because I am His,
