Filled: A Devotional to Fill Your Life With an Abundance of Hope, Peace, Joy & Love

DAY 4 OF 14

Day 4: Finding Joy

Do you ever have days where you just find yourself filled with a sense of gratitude? That’s what this Psalm is all about.

Yes, we have inflation, we have shortages, we have problems, we have variance, right? But we have Jesus too and He said, “In this world you will have trouble, but take heart because I have overcome the world.” It is why he came. He came to rescue you, not just from sin, but from hopelessness, from that lack of peace, from that terrible anxiety that just pulls at you. He came to rescue you.

This Psalm is a great one to read out loud. There is something about reading God’s word out loud that really allows it to sink in to our hearts and minds. Give it a try now.

I imagine you reading this and as you go into each section your voice gets stronger and stronger as you realize how faithful God is! He is so very faithful.

After you read Psalm 136 out loud a few times, take a moment to think about your own life. How has God been faithful in your own life. When did he keep showing up even when you were afraid he wouldn’t, when you didn’t think you deserved it? This is your God never quit story. Write it down as a testimony to God’s faithfulness in your life.

His love never quits. His faithful love endures forever!

Today you can hold on to the assurance that God is for you. He is faithful. He loves you. He wants the best for you. Lean in to that love today.

PRAYER: Lord, I know and acknowledge that you are for me! If I am harboring any anger or resentment, I give that up to you today. Lord, I recognize that you came to rescue me and I ask you again to fill my heart with your peace and assurance. I love you, Lord!

REFLECTION: Read this Psalm out loud every day. It might feel weird to read it out loud but do it anyway. Hide in the closet or the bathroom if you need. Get your family together to read it with them over dinner. Let this be the theme of your new year. A theme of being filled with gratitude for all God has done!

About this Plan

Filled: A Devotional to Fill Your Life With an Abundance of Hope, Peace, Joy & Love

FILLED is designed to fill your soul with truth from Psalms. Psalms are wonderful because the authors were crying out all their emotions to God. They are crying out in mourning, praising God with gratefulness, and shouting from the mountaintops in celebration. They are a reflection of our own hearts and minds and help us see that we can come to God with any and everything that we are thinking.
