JESUS REJOICES

“At that same time Jesus was filled with the joy of the Holy Spirit, and he said, “O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, thank you for hiding these things from those who think themselves wise and clever, and for revealing them to the childlike. Yes, Father, it pleased you to do it this way.”

(Luke 10:21, NLT)

Jesus rejoiced in thanksgiving, following the results of deliverance and healing from the ministry of the seventy disciples He had sent out – and especially for the salvation of the people

ACTION:  “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18). Is that easy? No! Can it be done? Yes! So, do it!

PRAYER: Grant me the grace, Oh God, to count my blessings, even when difficult challenges arise!
