NEHEMIAH 8:10

THE joy of the Lord, not our joy in Him, is our strength.

  1. The joy of the Lord’s compassion is our strength in testimony, as we remember we are saved by Him (Luke 15:1-7).
  2. The joy of the Lord’s treasure (which is His people), is our strength in Christian life, as we recognise we are His property (Matt. 13:44).
  3. The joy of the Lord’s Cross is our strength in persecution, as we consider Him in prayerful meditation through His Word (Hebrews 12:2-3).
  4. The joy of the Lord’s oneness with us is our strength in fruit-bearing, as we abide in Him (John 15:11).
  5. The joy of His presence is our strength in our walk, as we look to Him in faith (Psalm 105:43).
  6. The joy of His joy is our strength in communion as we have fellowship with Him (Zeph. 3:16-17).
  7. The joy of His presentation and commendation shall be our strength in glory to praise Him for all His grace given (Jude 24).
