The Complete Devotional With Josh NormanNäide

The Joy of the Lord is Your Strength

Recall a moment when you were exhausted, both physically and emotionally, and a loved one offered words of encouragement that lifted your spirits. Their joy and faith in you reinvigorated your resolve, giving you the strength to push through your difficulties. This experience mirrors the way the joy of the Lord functions in our lives. God’s joy is a wellspring of strength that renews us daily, empowering us to overcome challenges with a sense of purpose and hope. When we tap into this divine joy, we find ourselves equipped to face any adversity with renewed vigor.

Practical Application: Reflect on the joy you find in the Lord. Allow this joy to strengthen you today, especially in areas where you feel weak or discouraged. Share this joy with others who may need encouragement.
