In Nehemiah 8:10 the word of the Lord says this. " Then Nehemiah the Governor, Ezra the priest and teacher of the Law, and the levites who were instructing the people said to them all, "This day is Holy to the Lord your God. Do not mourn or weep" For all people had been weeping as they listened to the words of the Law. Nehemiah said," Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. Do not grieve, for the joy of the Lord is your strength." So many today feel they are being held captive. Last night at our Fixx we spoke about a God ordained captivity and a self imposed captivity. One has a purpose they other does not. I thin of the Israelites being freed from their captivity, which was self imposed. Why do I say that. Well we we disobey Gods word He takes and opens His hand removing the covering. Mind you He never leaves us, but in or decision He allows us to wander and receive the consequences of our decision. He is such a gentlemen that He will not interfere. How many today have made a decision to be angry, how many have been bitter about what has been given as for some a health declaration. When all was said and done the Israelites were so grieved by what they had done they weeped. You see when all is said and done we become remorseful. Lol a little late after all the disobedience has been decided. Now listen when we look at things we have two choices. 1 We can look at all things as the world portrays which is usually very bad, or two we can look at things through the eyes of Christ and find the truth of the matter that can and will set you free. So will you Choose Joy or misery, and by the way if it's misery I'm sure you will find plenty of company.
