6. Rejoice Always:

My dearly beloved, what do you think about rejoicing always? How do we rejoice always? A question arises – How do we rejoice always as many worries keep controlling our mind?

My dearly beloved, if we truly accept Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior our soul will always accept the words of our Lord Jesus.

Our Lord Jesus Christ says in John 16: 20 – 24 -  Verily, verily, I say unto you, That ye shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice: and ye shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy.

A woman when she is in travail hath sorrow, because her hour is come but as soon as she is delivered of the child, she remembereth no more the anguish, for joy that a man is born into the world.

And ye now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man taketh from you.

And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give it you.

Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

The reason our Lord Jesus Christ is saying that you have asked nothing in my name is because we ask him only for worldly blessings.

 

Jesus Christ said in John 16: 23 - And in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, because he said and again, a little while, and ye shall see me. He said this in regarding The Holy Spirit being given unto us.

That is why, Jesus Christ said in Matthew 6: 33, 34 - But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. He said this so that we will not ask for vain things.

Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.

John 14:26 says - But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

John 15: 10 - If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love.

If we abide along with our Lord Jesus Christ, we will bear much fruit and The Father will be glorified in us.

Therefore, Jesus said in John 15: 11 - These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

When the fullness comes in each and everyone of our souls, emptiness leaves. That fullness is the anointing of the Holy Spirit. If we keep renewing the anointing of the Holy Spirit daily, then all worldly worries and problems will leave from our lives. Then our soul will be filled with joy.

Therefore, in Romans 14: 17 - For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Therefore, in Philippians 4:4 it is written - Rejoice in the Lord always: and again, I say, Rejoice.

Let us receive the gift of The Holy Spirit and be joyful always. Let us pray. May the Lord bless us all.
