LAUGH AND REJOICE IN THE LORD

Psalms 2:1&4 (GNB), Zephaniah 3:17-18 (GNB)

Why do the nations plan rebellion? Why do people make their useless plots? *From his throne in heaven the Lord laughs and mocks their feeble plans. *The LORD your God is with you; his power gives you victory. … in his love he will give you new life. He will sing and be joyful over you, as joyful as people at a festival.” The LORD says, “I have ended the threat of doom and taken away your disgrace.

Laughing can be an expression of joy, just like singing, dancing and shouting. So many believers do not know that God actually laughs. The major thing God laughs at is the plan of the wicked against Him and His children. He laughs because He has already declared that no weapon formed against us shall proper (Isa.54:7), all things will work together for our good and no one can be against us (Rom.8:28 & 31). What you therefore ought to do whenever it seems like there is a plan or weapon being formed against you is to join God to laugh. Psalms 2:4b (NKJV) says, “He who sits in the heavens shall laugh…” You are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, (Eph.2:6).

By His cross, Jesus has destroyed the power the devil had over you, (Heb.2:14-15). God wants our eyes opened to this. There is no situation or circumstance that can stop or limit you anymore. You always have the victory in Christ. It is this consciousness that made Paul and Silas pray and sing aloud at midnight though they had been falsely accused, beaten, chained and imprisoned, (Acts 16:16-26). Our joy as children of God are not based on what is happening or what is going on around us. They are based on the love of God, the presence of God, the promises of God and the glory, power and blessings of God that are always available to us because of all Jesus has done for us.

Faith Declaration:
I laugh and rejoice in Christ always because I am unstoppable. God is with me and all things are working for my good!
