Let's live happily (Hab 3:17-18)
It is a very good thing that people live happily.
There is a saying that if you smile once, you will become younger once, and if you get angry once, you will grow old once more.
It is also said that you cannot spit on a smiling face.
Medically, it is said that when you laugh, endorphins are released from the body, which is good for health, and when you give out your temper, adranin, the opposite, is released, which is very bad for your health.
The Bible says, “You should always rejoice.”
I hope that all of you who come to church today to worship, eat the medicine full of laughter, and have a time of joy.
There are many kinds of joy.
First). Sarah gave birth to a son and said, "God makes me laugh, and we will all laugh with me."
In Genesis 24: when Isaac was sad and distressed after his mother's funeral, he said, "I was very happy that I got a wife." That the couple met and rejoiced in each other. It seems to be power.
I hope that your couple will be able to enjoy each other when they meet too.
On the other hand, there is the joy of being saved spiritually.
Psalm 13:5 says, “My heart rejoices in your salvation.”
Ok!
I'm just thankful that the Lord has called me,
In addition to that, he gave me a mission, so I'm thrilled,
Even though it seems to be useless from a human point of view, it's just amazing that you're still holding on to me.
I am just thankful that you gave me the conditions of joy so that I can be happy.
Above all else, he made me believe in Jesus and let me live while looking at the kingdom of heaven, so I can't take away my laughter.
I pray that the great joy of salvation will always overflow to you as well.
If you accept Jesus as the Christ, and you have the assurance of salvation, you will go the way you were going.
Before, I thought that if I left university, got a job at a large company like Hyundai, and got a promotion, that was all.
But these days, it is said that happiness is living while making use of one's major and doing what one wants to do.
A lot of people see poor people living their lives exhausted, losing their smiles.
Because that's not the path you have to walk.
However, in John 6:21, it is said that if we accept Jesus as the Christ, we will come to the land to which we are going.
Dear all!
We also hope that those who have been saved by accepting Jesus as the Christ will settle in the land of joy that we must enjoy.
Because Jesus is with me, I am not afraid of temptations
Let's live for Jesus, the source of joy
Serving you every day, always honoring you
Let's live in that love and don't go the other way
So how do I live with no one to take away and enjoy the real joy of not being taken away?
First) Psalm 19:8 says, “The word of God is honest and rejoices in my heart.”
Even if I close my eyes, the words come to mind,
Sitting or standing, I just remember the words,
Every time you open your mouth, the word of God is memorized line by line, line by line, line by line,
And if we live by moving our actions according to the word of God,
You will live a life full of joy that no one can take away.
That's why the Bible tells us, 'Write the Bible on the forehead and stick it on the forehead, and write the word of God on the doorpost, the doorpost, and on the doorpost.
How do we live?
Even if we do not write the word of God on doorposts and doorlins,
Be sure to write
remember,
think,
We keep,
I hope that you are filled with true joy that no one can take away.
Second) He said that joy can be enjoyed in the Lord.
Philippians 4:4 says, “Rejoice in the Lord always.”
Last week, an executive training session was held in Gyeongju.
However, an unexpected daughter came to Gyeongju.
I thought it wasn't.
how? Did I ask you if you came here?
He said he wanted to surprise his father.
No matter how surprised and delighted I was, I held back my tears.
It's so fun to meet my daughter, how much more terrifying that the Lord is in me?
That's why Paul said, "Rejoice in the Lord always."
But what is the meaning of 'juan' and 'juan'?
The first thing that came to mind for me was the mission.
What is the mission entrusted to you? was doing,
Did I actually carry out the mission happily and happily while fulfilling the mission? was to do.
If I fulfilled my mission happily while carrying out my mission, and fulfilled the mission given to me with gratitude,,,,
It means that I am abiding in the Lord.
Going to church can be daunting.
How many parishes were there at the last executive retreat?
All-night prayer, morning prayer, torch prayer, intercessory prayer school, community clean-up
While doing it, he expressed that it was difficult and burdensome.
Still, you have to do it when you do.
When you do, it's about what it looked like.
Everyone! While happily carrying out the given mission,
No matter how hard and difficult it is,
I pray that the joy that no one can take away overflows in your hearts.
Should I be happy even when it is difficult?
“Many afflictions have made us imitators of the Lord.”
Ok. This is really cool.
I didn't have much trouble.
It was a bit difficult in middle school, but it was a difficulty that all seniors had to bear, and I was just a mango river.
But I got sick.
It's really hard. It is difficult. Sometimes I think it's tough.
However, even in these difficulties, if I happily and joyfully fulfill the mission given to me, the Lord will make me feel the pain of the cross and make him an imitator of the Lord. Hallelujah!
Finally) we must rejoice as we look forward to the day when we will see the Lord again.
According to 1 Thessalonians 2:19, “Our hope, our pride, is us when the Lord comes again.”
One day, the resurrected Lord will come to this earth again.
Then the Lord saw me,
Yes, you did well, you endured well, was it hard? Was it difficult?
He is wiping away all these tears from our eyes.
So we cry today.
“Amen, Lord Jesus, please come.”
What if you cry and laugh? What are you saying?
But we cry now.
When I happily carry on the mission given to me even in the midst of crying and difficulties,
no one can take it away,
The joy that nothing can take away will overflow and a healing history will take place.
I bless you all who are full of real joy and real healing.
