Blessed & Renewed: A 5-Day Journey With the AlmightySample

Day 3: "Restored & Rejoicing"

In the fourth chapter of Philippians, Paul tells the Philippians to rejoice. This is in all things. In the good times, bad times, and everything in between. When we consistently remind ourselves to always be in a state of gratitude and to give thanks to the best God to ever do it, we also keep ourselves in a posture that is most pleasing to God. He wants us to get to know him more each and every day. The world has so much to present to us and it is very easy for us to be swayed by the things of life on earth, but we must be mindful that we are living here to live again with the Father.

Philippians 4:4 says, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” This clarifies that God is in charge and he knows not only how to handle us with care, but that we need him in every situation, and he will be there to answer and guide us.

Let’s rejoice in the Lord for we know that God does all things well and good.
