"The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I
have come that they may have life, and have it to the full" (John 10:10
NIV).
We know how to
recognize the enemy--it's been told repeatedly, but know let's take a
look at the other side of the coin-having life to the full or as the KJV
states, "abundant life."
Unfortunately, so
many Christians feel they have to be "somber and sour" (their version
of holiness) and never enjoy life because if they did, they wouldn't be
"saved." I have news for those who think that way. Once we
are saved, born again, born anew--having become new creations in Christ,
we should enjoy every moment we live--because we have access to
eternity with the King of Kings and Lord of Lords! He intended for us to
enjoy life!
We have been told to laugh--for laughter is like medicine and good for the soul. How can we laugh if we think we are too holy to laugh and enjoy life? Well, what we are waiting for today?
Get up and out and find a reason to smile, laugh and enjoy life because
we are expected to enjoy the abundant life He has given us.
I
don't know about you, but I'm going to enjoy every moment of life on
this side of heaven, no matter what the enemy does or attempts to do. I
will not allow him to steal my joy and trust me, he tries, daily!
This
is the day and this is the moment that I shall enjoy the joy of the
Lord in everything I do and I will ignite the joy of the Lord in others
so they will want to be in my presence! My proclamation for the day! Enjoy the moment--if
we can't find any other reason to laugh, laugh at the devil and remind
him that he has no power over our lives because we have victory in
Jesus!
