Rejoice, His Mercies Are New

This is the day which the LORD hath made; We will rejoice and be glad in it. Ps 118:24

Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I say rejoice! (Phil 4:4). God’s mercies never grow old. His heart never darkens, nor turns cold. His mercies never run out, run dry, nor fade. Every morning, the mercies of our Lord are new. His mercies are perfectly sufficient for whatever challenges, disappointments, sufferings, temptations, and struggles that we may face from the sins within us and that surround us. My friend “this is the day the Lord has made, rejoice and be glad in it.” No matter the road you may travel or what may come your way, you can “Rejoice in the Lord” through faith in His promised word that “my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus” (Phil 4:19). As you begin this day, take a moment to rest, reflect, and meditate on the loving kindness that He has shown you. Be reminded my friend that God promises to “never leave you nor forsake you” (Heb 13:5) and that “I am with you always” (Mt 28:20). By His mercies He strengthens you and gives you courage to abide in Him to move forward in each new day. Yesterday is behind you and today is new. So “rejoice and be glad in it.” Dear friend, sing and shout praises unto the Lord, for His mercies are new every morning. Proclaim the truths of the ole spiritual hymn and sing “Great is thy faithfulness! Great is thy faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies I see. All I have needed Thy hand have provided. Great is thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me!” Father thank You for Your love and Your new mercies every morning. I will rejoice and be glad in this day, for You are my Maker, my Creator, my Lord and my God. I will tell of Your righteousness and Your salvation all the day (Ps 71:15). I thank You and praise You in the blessed Name of Jesus. Amen.
