"The entrance of thy words giveth light (Psalm 119:130)."
Be Joyful, Prayerful & Thankful
"Rejoice always; pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." {1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 NASB}
The Bible tells us to be joyful, prayerful and thankful. Examine the Scripture and it will help you.
Rejoice always. Joy is a choice. Make an effort to be joyful, every day, regardless of your circumstances. Your Christian life will be easier, and more successful, this way.
". . . for the joy of the Lord is your strength" {Nehemiah 8:10 NIV}
Pray without ceasing: The adverb translated "without ceasing" was used in the original Greek text to refer to a hacking cough. A hacking cough is not something that occurs all the time. But it does keep coming back. And it comes back frequently.
We 'pray without ceasing' because we come under spiritual attacks all day long.
Suggestions:
- Pray, routinely, when you get up, go to bed etc.
- Pray, and give thanks, before meals.
- Pray whenever you come under spiritual attacks.
- Pray whenever you face challenges.
- Pray, before jobs, even when you're not facing challenges.
You will benefit if you get into the habit of praying.
In everything give thanks. For both blessings and challenges. This results in more peace and a more successful life.
God uses trials to make us wiser and stronger. {Romans 8:28}
