MONTHLY DEVOTIONAL FOR 6TH MAY

THE 6TH OF MAY

WE CAN TRULY REJOICE IF WE KEEP OUR HEARTS PURE AND THANKFUL

Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous, for praise is becoming and appropriate for those who are upright. – Psalm 33:1

The more we choose not to compromise our right standing with God in every area of our lives, the more we are to rejoice in our Lord. By doing so, we can handle every disappointment or failure better and allow the Holy Spirit to comfort us. There is so much joy in praising God, because it is the easiest way to enter into His presence. As David said, we should bless and worship our Lord “at all times,” enjoying spending time with Him. “O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together” (Psalms 34:3). If we wait to get our joy from those around us or from our circumstances, we may wait for a long time! The source of our happiness is the presence of the Holy Spirit and it is up to us to ask Him to make His presence known.

By learning to keep a grateful heart, always being ready to praise God no matter what and finding the good in every situation, we may have the abundant life that Jesus desires for us to have.

SUGGESTED PRAYER: My dear Lord, please help me keep a pure heart and never compromise my right standing with You, because I cannot be righteous without Your help. Please help me never forget to praise You and keep a grateful heart towards You, too. You are so worthy of all my obedience, love and praise! I do not want to live any other way, but to praise and honor You. I am so blessed to be Your child, Thank You so very much, heavenly Father! Praises, glory and honor to Your holy Name. Amen
