Joy Makes You Strong
As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the Lord is tried. He is a Shield to all those who trust and take refuge in Him. 2 Samuel 22:31
Nehemiah 8:10 says, "Be not grieved and depressed, for the joy of the Lord is your strength and stronghold." Being happy and joyful makes you strong, and being mad or sad makes you weak. But the Lord is a Shield, and the Lifter of your head
Psalm 3:3 But you, O Lord, are always my shield from danger; you give me victory and restore my courage
Satan isn't after your joy, he is after your strength. The devil wants you too weak to pray. He wants you worn out and burned out. But the Lord will lift your head and shield you from the devil's plot against you, if you put your trust in Him.
One Day at a Time
My God, my Rock, in Him will I take refuge; my Shield and the Horn of my salvation; my Stronghold and my Refuge, my Savior- You save me from violence. 2 Samuel 22:3
Trials can come like a freight train--one car after another, after another--but eventually the last car passes. When problems seem unceasing, remind yourself, "This too shall pass."
Deal with one rial at a time in the power of the Holy Ghost until each series of events is over. God will give you fresh anointing daily to handle everything that comes into your life.
Each time you endure a tough day, you can sleep it off and start again the next day. So you may as well enjoy the tough days too, because God's favor is for a lifetime; weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning
Psalm 30:5 His anger lasts only a moment, his goodness for a lifetime. Tears may flow in the night, but joy comes in the morning.
**Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path**
