GOD REJOICES OVER YOU AND YOUR CHILDREN!
God loves to rejoice over His children. Zephaniah 3:17 tell us that God rejoices over us with joy. He even sings over us. Isn’t that wonderful?Deuteronomy 28:63 and 30:9 tell us that God rejoices over us for GOOD. He loves to do good things to us and for us. The interesting thing is that the first good thing He wants to do for us is to multiply us. To give us children. Lots of children. Who thinks that’s good?
Well, if we don’t, we are opposite to God, aren’t we?
Do we have the same heart as God? Do we rejoice to embrace children? We shold also rejoice over our children. Not complain about them but rejoice over them. And when our children grow up and get married, we’ll rejoice when God gives them children.
Isn’t it sad that many parents warn their children to wait a few years before they have children. I think many of you have been reticent to tell your parents that you are pregnant again, knowing you will receive negative remarks from your parents.
Isn’t that strange? Parents should REJOICE that God is blessing their children with a new precious life. That they are building the family dynasty. This is for their GOOD. There is no greater blessing than a precious new life, filled with potential, given to the parents to prepare for God’s destiny for them in this life, and for the eternal world.
Read Psalm 107:41-43 which tells us that God loves to make “families like a flock.” A flock is more than one or two. And then it tells about the response of those who see these growing families. It says that those who are wise will rejoice and understand the lovingkindness of the Lord and “all iniquity shall stop her mouth.”
Let’s be a rejoicing people in the goodness of the Lord.
