17Within your gates you must not eat the tithe of your grain or new wine or oil, the firstborn of your herds or flocks, any of the offerings that you have vowed to give, or your freewill offerings or special gifts. 18Instead, you must eat them in the presence of the LORD your God at the place the LORD your God will choose—you, your sons and daughters, your menservants and maidservants, and the Levite within your gates. Rejoice before the LORD your God in all you do, 19and be careful not to neglect the Levites as long as you live in your land.
Rejoice
“Rejoice before the LORD your God in all you do”
This is a repeating theme and we have to examine ourselves to find out why!
It’s because when we are fat with life’s supplies we forget too easily.
Rejoice as you work, as though you are working for Him.
Rejoice in adversity as though He is guiding you through it and holding your hand!
Rejoice when you refrigerator is full as though He just filled it.
Rejoice when your prayers are lifted up to heaven because He hears your prayers.
Rejoice when your prayers are answered because He knows what’s best for you.
Rejoice because He is your God.
Rejoice continually so that they know you are His!
Don’t stop rejoicing because He called you and declared you are His!
Blessings
