Rejoice In Him
Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I will say, rejoice!
Philippians 4:4
God wants Christians to be happy people! However, our generation has become well versed in Christian terminology, but is neglectful of the actual practice of Christ’s principles and teachings. Hence, our greatest need today is not more Christianity but more true Christians. The world can argue against Christianity, and the Church as an institution, but there is no convincing argument against a person who, through the Spirit of God, has been made Christlike. Such a person is a living rebuke to the selfishness, rationalism, and materialism of the day. The Lord Jesus said to the woman at Jacob’s well, “Whosoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst.” This sin-sick, disillusioned woman was the symbol of the whole human race. Her longings were our longings! Her heart's-cry is our heart-cry! Her disillusionment is our disillusionment! Her sin is our sin! But her Saviour can be our Saviour! Her forgiveness can be our forgiveness! Her joy can be our joy! Her rejoicing can be our rejoicing, if we put our trust in the Saviour Jesus Christ.
