Scripture Reference : Phil 4:4-8
When I was in Melbourne, I hurt my ankle to a point I found difficulty to stand for too long, much less dance. In the midst of my whining and complaining, I contemplated to not attend the church service that sunday since I was not feeling too well already. But, I felt God speaking to me "Rejoice in the Lord in all your circumstances". Then, I realise my pain was not only physical, I have doubled my pain when I wallow in self-pity over my circumstances. Well, I forced myself to attend church, and even chose to dance before the Lord when I can. After the worship service, I realised I was completely healed! :) Praise the Lord!
How is it possible to rejoice in the Lord in our hurts and pains and when the road ahead seem so difficult to move on? Let us learn to trust in the Almighty Lord for his guidance and providence. Our God is a father who will not abandon us in ALL our situations. All we are required to do is to pray and commit everything in his hands! With the knowledge that God WILL give you the victory, REJOICE in the Lord in all your circumstances. No mountain is too high for him, no river too deep for him to overcome, so Rejoice!
Sisters, today, will you tell the Lord that you will discipline your emotions and align them to the word of the Lord, that you will rejoice in all your circumstances? Will you hand over your circumstance to God and in complete obedience, Rejoice knowing that the God of miracles can breakthrough your circumstance? Today, will you shine for Jesus in your workplace/family by displaying that peace and joy of the Lord that transends everybody's understanding?
May you find strength and experience the miracles of the Lord in your life as you rejoice in all your life's circumstances! :)
