"This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it."
Psalms 118:24

Today, being Monday, the first busy day of your week, we pray that you get your 'JOY' ON and praise the LORD with us, the whole week long!

You probably remember the song; "This Is The Day".  

This is the day, this is the day,
That the LORD has made;
That the LORD has made,
I will rejoice, I will rejoice;
And be glad in it, and be glad in it,
This is the day that the LORD has made;
I will rejoice and be glad in it,
This is the day, this is the day,
That the LORD has made.

Some people like to substitute; "I will rejoice and be glad in HIM".  Like your 'JOY' Scripture, this song is full of 'JOY', rejoicing, and gladness.  Praise the Name of JESUS for this wonderful Scripture and the 'one' who penned this powerful song for our 'JOY'.  Just singing this song will drive your blues away.  You just cannot remain sad and depressed when you sing HIS Powerful, Life-Changing Word. Once you begin to sing, your heart is lifted above your personal circumstances and problems.  The HOLY SPIRIT takes over your heart, your mouth, your mind and soul, and HIS blessings flow from HIM to you!

It is so amazing that in this world you are given all kinds of advise on how to be happy or joyful by people who may not have a clue to what 'true' 'JOY' even is.  Only JESUS can fill you with life changing 'JOY'!

Now ask yourself; "Am I able to experience this kind of GOD given 'JOY' in my life?"  If the answer is "no", then:   (1) -  I am probably a Christian who has lost the confidence in GOD'S Word to meet all my needs in JESUS, or  (2) -  I am a nice person who has never accepted JESUS as my personal SAVIOR.  In either case, although the circumstances would be miles apart, they are both a matter of personal choice.

No matter how horrible you feel and how desperate you are, begin now, as you read these words to lift up your voice and sing the Scripture Song above and trust HIS Word to deliver you from all circumstances.  Nothing is too difficult for your LORD. HE will prove HIMSELF in your behalf, and you will be filled with HIS 'JOY'.

If you are not yet HIS child, sing the words to the 'JOY' song, pour out your heart to the LORD in prayer, ask JESUS to become your Personal SAVIOUR, thank HIM for forgiving you of all your sins and for loving you so much that HE would make you a child of GOD.  Today and everyday, live your life in the 'JOY' of the LORD!
