Can Anyone Really Rejoice ‘Always’? Philippians 4:4-7, Part 1

[@briannahickey2941]

This was so helpful to me, thank you for this beautiful and sound teaching, I am so grateful.

Hallelujah... names are written in Heaven. Therefore, we can endure any discomfort in this wicked world. The troubles of this world are but a passing irritation.

Power of the Holy Spirit www.christianity.com/wiki/holy-spirit/what-is-holy-spirit-power.html The Power of the Holy Spirit Is the Power of God. The Holy Spirit throughout redemptive history has shown Himself through works of power. The Holy Spirit first was seen at creation when, by His power, the world came into being (Genesis 1:1-2; Job 26:13). Additionally, the Holy Spirit empowered men in the Old Testament to bring about the will of God in the following ways: 1 Samuel 16:13, “So Samuel took the horn of oil and anointed him in the presence of his brothers, and from that day on the Spirit of the Lord came upon David in power.” Samson's feats of strength are attributed by the Holy Spirit coming upon him (Judges 14:16, Judges 14:19; Judges 15:14). While the Holy Spirit did not permanently indwell God’s people in the Old Testament, He worked through them to achieve things they would not have been able to accomplish on their own.

We should rejoice in the Lord not in the world 😇.

[@queendevi2492]

@Asherah 1147 Amen 😇

FAITH: gratitude and humility where they should not exist. Faith isn’t simply a belief system, it’s a proactive discipline.

[@mr.c2485]

Asherah 1147 Agreed. I’ve also read in another book that without gratitude and humility our works are as filthy rags.

[@debbibobetty5620]

Amen😊

Thank you, very solidly fundamental in our Christian walk with the Lord Jesus Christ

[@peternumber5791]

May Jesus bless you abundantly

[@febeyan]

Rejoice in the Lord always.....

[@justusalmondwilliams9102]

Yes. When Christ is revealed, you will not be able to stop rejoicing. We were created to serve one purpose - to rejoice in and glorify our Creator. If we claim to be set apart, our actions must differ from the world’s; we must bear fruit. Our external circumstances don’t matter and they should never, ever dictate our moods. We must remain joyful and peaceful and most importantly, our actions must align with this so Gentiles see the love we have and desire it. The only Spiritual discipline that results in hope is suffering. Difficulties must be anticipated, embraced, and welcomed.

I bind the word of philippians 4:4-7, 2 corinthians 6:14-15, matthew 6:24 to be thankful to the almigthy Lord while I will not be unequally yoked and have s common share with any evildoer serving satan and loosen every complaining spirit upon no return in my life, in the name and blood of Jesus Christ, amen and hallelujah!

"Gods Will Be Done" God Will Teach you Humility. He will teach you to be Content with what you Need..who and what He Gives you..not what you Want. He will Teach you to Forgive and Bless your enemies. He will Teach you to do your kindnesses without Reward..getting money and taking glory. He will Teach you to be Honest and Considerate. He will Teach you not to worry about the future. You will Rejoice when the Teaching is Done and you have Learned!

[@edwardvermeulen9781]

And the most important is He wants to love you and be with you❤️

[@kathleenwharton2139]

@@edwardvermeulen9781 Thank You! Jesus has been with me since I was six years old..I can remember Him speaking to me and Helping me then. He has been with me ever since. Doesnt mean I didn’t make mistakes though! Sometimes I didn’t listen.

[@margaretmcguire3241]

Thank u! *1 Thessalonians **5:18**-23* 18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. 19 Quench not the Spirit. 20 Despise not prophesyings. 21 Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. 22 Abstain from all appearance of evil. 23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Remain blessed in Jesus's precious name. 💕🕊💕
