Psalm 40:16a "Let all those who seek You rejoice"
Day 350 – Psalm 40
“Let all those who seek You rejoice” Psalm 40:16a
THE THINGS THAT THREATEN TO TAKE AWAY JOY
There are a number of things that threaten to take away joy from our hearts. David identified a number of these things.
1. The presence of innumerable evils can take away joy.
2. The problem of personal sins can also rob us of our joy.
3. The powerful feelings of depressive sadness can drain our joy very swiftly.
REGAINING JOY
David knew that he must regain joy. He must help others who stood with him to find joy in the Lord. To lack this joy would only make the battle against evil much harder.
“Let all those who seek You rejoice
and be glad in You…”
Psalm 40:16a
