Do You Want Joy?

Psalms 16: Do you long to have joy and fullness of life? Psalm 16 is the place you need to run to then.

Psalm 16:11 ” You make known to me the path of life;
in your presence there is fullness of joy;
at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”

Before you get to the joy, there is a pathway. That path is to walk in the Father’s will.

16:1 Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge.
2 I say to the Lord, “You are my Lord;
I have no good apart from you.”
5 The Lord is my chosen portion and my cup;
you hold my lot.
6 The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places;
indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance.
7 I bless the Lord who gives me counsel;
in the night also my heart instructs me.
8 I have set the Lord always before me;
because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.
9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices;
my flesh also dwells secure.

As we dwell in His presence and journey our life in His way, we know peace and joy because we know we are abiding in Him. That is why dwelling in His presence there is FULLNESS OF JOY. Just like the passage says because we are walking right with God there are pleasures FOREVER MORE!

Fullness of joy and Pleasures forever more, now that is something to shoot for daily!
