My Comfort Is Jesusনমুনা

I Will Rejoice

Some days I feel downcast, and I don’t know why. I find myself saying with the psalmist, Why are you cast down oh my soul? I have everything to be thankful for. Plus, all my sins are forgiven, and I have everlasting life! Then there are times when I’m in the lions’ den yet have unspeakable joy. My only explanation is that it is perhaps spiritual oppression.

The way to battle the demonic realm is through prayer. David said, “O my God, my soul is cast down within me; Therefore I will remember You from the land of the Jordan.” (Psalm 42:6). He prayed and then he remembered God from the land of Jordan. In other words, he thought about his relationship with God before he crossed over to the promised land. That’s what we must do. We must remember what God has saved us from. He hasn’t treated us according to our iniquities. Therefore, I will rejoice and offer the sacrifice of praise even though I feel down. That is evidence of trust in God.

Father, I am so thankful for what you have done in my life.
