Celebrating the Lord in our lives

UV 341/10,000 Amazing principles of the Uni-verse revealed verse by verse Jeremiah 9 v 24 Jer 9:24 But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith the LORD. It is the habit of mankind through the generations to glory or rejoice in riches and wisdom. But, the Lord has proved that riches are vain and wisdom is limited. Instead, He invites us to rejoice, to exult, to glory in our understanding and personal knowledge of the Living God, the Great I Am. Understanding and knowing the Lord enables us to understand almost every thing and any thing in history including our personal biography or in nature. It makes our minds as sharp as a knife that it can cut through any problem as a knife cuts through butter. It makes our heart a continual feast. No wonder the Lord said, “ I will sup with you and you will sup with me.” We can legitimately glory or delight in the immense riches of His character and power. His lovingkindness and righteousness are aspects of His character. His lovingkindness is better than life. Lovingkindness is an unique phraseology of the Bible. It means His love and kindness. His judgement is a manifestation of His power in accordance with His righteousness and love. We must delight in the revelations and manifestations of the Lord’s love and kindness, His power and righteousness in our lives. This comes from enjoying a personal and intimate relationship with Him. When we delight in this, He will delight in us and grant us the desires of our heart. How do we delight in practical ways in our life? We can often remember and give praise and thanks for His acts of love, mercy and grace towards us. You don’t become a millionaire in God’s kingdom by owning a million dollars but you become God’s millionaire or billionaire by recounting the million things He has done in you and for you. We can sing from our hearts. We can dance and celebrate as David did. I often dance in the privacy of my closed room, of course listening in an attitude of joy, worship and wild abandon to some worship songs. We can always exhibit a positive attitude. We can confess positively about our love relationship with God. When we exult in the Lord, we exalt Him. Prateep V Philip
