- The joy of you is NOT your strength
Nehemiah 8:10
World English Bible (WEB)
10 Then he said to them, “Go your way. Eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to him for whom nothing is prepared; for today is holy to our Lord. Don’t be grieved; for the joy of Yahweh (the Lord ) is your strength.”
What the Lord rejoices in?
Zephaniah 3:17
World English Bible (WEB)
17 Yahweh ( The Lord ), your God, is among you, a mighty one who will save. He will rejoice over you with joy. He will calm you in his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.
- If you know He rejoices over you, you will have strength
- If you know you are God’s beloved, you will have strength
- “He is my beloved, in whom I am well pleased” – the Father to the Son Jesus
- Then the ministry of Jesus got started and Jesus conquered death.
