God rejoices over you - Bro. T. Stephen

My Dear Brothers and Sisters, I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. The blessed word that God has given for you today, is from the book of Isaiah 65:19, “I will rejoice in Jerusalem, And joy in My people. The voice of weeping shall no longer be heard in her. Nor the voice of crying.”

My Dear Brothers and Sisters, From the above context we understand that God himself rejoices in his people, as they are considered in Christ. He manifests his love to them and rejoices over them to do them good. He rejoices in the exercise of his own grace in them, as He has chosen them for himself. The Bible says, “’For Yahweh has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel as his treasured possession.” Therefore He rejoices over them. God’s plan is to make known his secret to his chosen people. This rich and glorious secret which he has are for all people. And the secret is that , Christ is in you, which means that you will share in the glory of God.

My Dear Brothers and Sisters, God further says, that we should be glad and rejoice forever in what He has created. He will create Jerusalem to be a joy, and it’s people to be a delight. Just as God wants to bless Jerusalem, He wants to bless you and your family too. It is not about the city of Jerusalem but the sons and daughters of Jerusalem that is “’you and me.”’ God wants to give you an experience of joy in your life. God does not want you to be in bondage. He wants to liberate you from all your problems and enable you to rejoice in the Lord. Because you have shed tears in the past due to various reasons, God says, the voice of weeping and voice of crying shall no longer be heard in your families. You may be crying as to when your weeping will come to an end. When your debts will come to an end. You are saying, when will my shame and humiliation come to an end. The tears you have shed because of your sorrows has reached heaven and shaken the heavens. God is comforting you through this message. From today onwards the Lord is going to rejoice over you. God very well knows that you who have trailed a sorrowful life, needs a life of rejoicing. God will never test anyone beyond your capacity.

My Dear Brothers and Sisters, God knows every incident, that took place in your life, the pain, the loss, the agony and the tears you have shed were beyond your limit. And he realizes that you need a period of rejoicing for all that you have patiently endured. You have been too good to have suffered in the hands of those whom you trusted much. You have been despised by your own people, so God wants to comfort you by saying “I will rejoice over you, and there shall no more weeping or crying be heard in your life.”God says, “I will do better for you, and settle you than at your beginning.” God bless you.

Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. We thank You because you recognize our life of sorrow. And thereby wish that we rejoice in the Lord. Thank you for promising us that there will be no more weeping and crying in our families. Help us Lord to see better days in life. Grant us a life of rejoicing.

In Jesus name we pray.
Amen.
