Rejoice in Everything


Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 
Philippians 4:4

There might be moments in your life when this seems impossible. Since God has put you through this trial, why then should you rejoice in the Lord? 

Life is a vaccumm, oh how hard it is to pull away from its grasp. This is when you need to praise the Lord the most! This is the moment when you can transcend to a life of sin and bitterness or stand up to the trial. You have a choice to make, descend into the easy path of darkness or walk up the steep hill to the light.  The second evil thoughts enter your mind is when you should shout out a song, cry out a verse. Let the World know that nothing can snuff out your candle! 


This little light of mine
I'm going to let it shine
Oh, this little light of mine
I'm going to let it shine
Hallelujah
This little light of mine
I'm going to let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

Out in the dark
I'm going to let it shine
Oh, out in the dark
I'm going to let it shine
Hallelujah
Out in the dark
I'm going to let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine

The more you worship Him, the less you focus on your trials. The less attention we pay to our trial, the more tranquility and ease we find in our lives. Making every day easier and easier as the trial delves on.

So when it seems the hardest to press on, praise the Lord.



O let us rejoice in the Lord evermore,
Though all things around us be trying,
Though floods of affliction like sea billows roar,
It’s better to sing than be sighing.

Refrain

Then rejoice evermore, rejoice evermore,
It is better to sing than be sighing:
It is better to live than be dying;
So let us rejoice evermore.


O let us rejoice in the Lord evermore,
When the darts of the tempter are flying,
For Satan still dreads, as he oft did of yore,
Our singing much more than our sighing.

Refrain

O let us rejoice in the Lord evermore,
When sickness upon us is stealing,
No cordial like gladness our strength can restore,
For joy is the fountain of healing.

Refrain

O let us rejoice in the Lord evermore,
For His love is love everlasting.
When we dwell with Him in the heavenly places,
There will be no more sighing and sorrow.

Refrain
