The Joy of the Lord Is Your Strength
“Don’t be dejected and sad, for the joy of the Lord is your strength!”
Joy isn’t just a feeling - it’s a source of strength. The enemy wants to steal your joy because he knows it empowers you. But joy rooted in the Lord can’t be shaken by circumstance. Tap into His joy today. Laugh again. Sing again. Rejoice, even in the waiting. Strength rises when you celebrate the goodness of God.
Prayer
Father, fill me with Your joy today. Let it be my strength and song in every moment. Amen.
