Honor and majesty are found in His presence; strength and joy are found in His sanctuary. 1 CHRONICLES 16:27
Emotional trauma drains people of their energy. But the Word says, "Be not grieved and depressed, for the joy of the Lord is your strength and stronghold" Nehemiah 8:10. the devil wants to steal your joy because he knows that joy is your strength. He wants you to be weak so that you won't resist the turmoil he sets against you.
That is why sometimes we need each other.
Some days God will send messengers to build you up in faith and renew your joy. Some days He will send you to someone else who is in a weakended conition because satan has been pounding on them. Be someone's friend today. They may need a friend to stand beside them and encourage them and to lift them up and pray for them.
