Be Happy!
Devotion by Pastor Shane - March 21, 2022
The Psalmist has written in Psalm 40:16: “Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.”
To be a happy Christian, one must be in the center of God’s will. As Christians, we are saved by God’s grace, and salvation frees us from sins control. As believers, we are free to live as God created us to live. Of course, this does not mean that we are free to do as we please (1 Peter 2:16); We are now free to obey God. When we obey, we are in the center of God’s will.
No person can ever be happy until he has learned to enjoy what he has and not worry about what he does not have. The Bible says in Hebrews 13:5, “Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. He has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
Do you know the secret of happiness? It’s found in Ephesians 1:3, where the Bible teaches us to count our blessings while others add up their troubles. Amen!
