Joy
And Strength Of His Presence
The Joy of The LORD is your Strength (Neh. 8:10).
Strength comes from His Joy. And where does this Joy
come from?
Thou wilt shew me the path of Life: in Thy Presence is fulness
of Joy; at Thy Right Hand there are pleasures for evermore.
Psa. 16: 11 KJV
So, we receive Joy by abiding with Him in His
Presence—and this Joy is actually Strength.
We receive Joy when we worship Him in spirit and in
Truth.
We receive Joy when we meditate on His Word.
In the midst of this, Strength is born!
And when we have His Strength what happens?
When we receive Strength we can praise and worship
Him even the more.
True worship only begins when Strength is born in
us!
But we must know and never forget that He said:
My Grace is sufficient for thee: for My Strength is made perfect in
weakness.
2 Cor. 12:9a KJV
His Power is made perfect in our weakness but, we
have to be totally surrendered to Him.
So, when we surrender all to Him; our weaknesses,
our pains, our failures, our shame, our tragedies, our sorrows and even our
defeat—then The Almighty GOD shows up strong at the neck of time.
Only the strong can walk with Jesus.
Only the strong can match in His endtime army.
Only the strong can survive the times.
Only the strong can soar high like the eagle…
But they that wait upon The Lord shall renew their Strength;
they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and
they shall walk, and not faint.
