Have you had your JOY JUICE today? It is AWESOME! The JOY of the Lord, that is!
One of the
best ways to teach about the joy of the Lord is to truly grasp the awesomeness
of God! You can see it in the beauty of His creation. Just watch the sunrise or sunset. Examine the intricate markings of a
butterfly. Enjoy the cool breeze after a
summer rain. Observe the ebb and flow of
the waves at the ocean. There is a
limitless supply of examples when we are talking about our awesome God.
Let's look at
two of the many passages in the Bible that express the joy of God’s awesome
deeds:
Psalm 66:1-3
and 5 says:
Shout with joy to God, all the earth! Sing the glory of his name; make
his praise glorious! Say to God, “How awesome are your deeds!”
Come and see what God has done, how awesome his works in man’s behalf!
And then Psalm 111:2…(“God’s Word” translation):
The Lord’s deeds are spectacular.
They should be studied by all who enjoy them.
They should be studied by all who enjoy them.
Let’s
not take the awesome ways of the Lord for granted. And we should pass along our love for and awe
of our God to our children and all those under our influence. Point out the uniqueness of our fingerprints,
the way a hummingbird flies and the countless other examples of the awesomeness
of God.
