Nehemiah 8:10(b)
“Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.”

As we sat together in the prayer room, I looked around at the faces of those praying. Some appeared to be cheerful before the Lord as they prayed and rejoiced before their King. Others, however, were sombre and appeared to be fatigued. It was only Tuesday evening yet these dear ones seemed overloaded and weary. I noticed wrinkled brows and bloodshot eyes. I prayed, “Lord, lift these heads. Lift these hearts. Lift these heavy loads and restore garments of praise for spirits of heaviness.” Suddenly, I had a vivid impression in my mind’s eye of the Lord Jesus, sitting high upon a high rock looking down on us as we prayed. And he was smiling!

Jesus is called the Rock of our Salvation. He has overcome the enemy of our souls and is enthroned in glory, power and joy. He made a spectacle of Satan when he triumphed over him at the cross. By his death and resurrection, Jesus brought us life and peace. He is our immovable foundation when we are tossed about in the gale-force winds of life. By the Holy Spirit, he gives us love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, gentleness, faithfulness and self-control. In Gethsemane, for the joy set before him, Jesus endured the cross and saw himself exalted at the right hand of God. Jesus is smiling at you today. The joy of Jesus is the source of your strength that you may face the weariness of life.

Come to Jesus if you’re feeling weary and overloaded. If you feel overcome by the burden of responsibility and the load of labour, come and rest at the feet of Jesus. His joy is your strength. Indeed, something to smile about.

God-tracking is something to smile about.

SO, DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY

“Help me to face tomorrow and help me to face all the difficulties in my life with joy and a smile.”

“My Lord, thank you so much that you are always in control in my life as I continue to acknowledge you in all my ways. There is nothing in this universe that can separate me from your love and your strength. You are my Rock and I lift my eyes to look into your smiling face. Thank you that you rejoice over me like a father rejoices over his child. It is this joy of yours, O my God, that is my strength. Thank you for your joy and your strength today. Help me to face tomorrow and help me to face all the difficulties in my life with joy and a smile. In you, I can leap for joy, always. Amen.”

What is GodTracker?
GodTracker is a weekly e-mail Christian motivational thought, written by Dudley Anderson, based on the premise that God has a plan for our lives. His Word calls us to seek his plan by acknowledging him in all our ways and by tracking his purposes, in faith. Most of what you’ll read is based upon the author’s personal experience of tracking the plans of God.
