Acts 16:25-26
"About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and other prisoners were were listening to them. Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everyone's chains came loose"
JOYFUL IN PRAISE
Many times, all we do is make requests in prayer. But there’s power in praising the Lord joyfully. There’ll always be circumstances and situations that’ll try to get your attention and knock your joy off. Sometimes, it may be some wave of bad news to make you sad and angry or some issues on your mind. Whatever the case, refuse to worry; be joyful in praise to the Lord.
That’s why it’s important to meditate on the Word of God. Through meditation on the Word, you’re conditioned to have the right mindset; you can’t but be joyful!
The Prophet said, “I delight greatly in the LORD, my soul rejoices in my God...” (Isaiah 61:10). The psalmist said, “Then my soul will rejoice in the LORD: delight in his salvation” (Psalm 35:9). Learn to praise the Lord joyfully always.
PRAYER
Dear Father, my heart is filled with the joy and laughter of the Spirit today. The joy of the Lord in my life is independent of circumstances. It doesn’t matter what news or event tries to make me unhappy; I’m always joyful in the Holy Ghost, with whom I’m ever victorious. Hallelujah!
