Say It Again


Memory Verse:
Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice!  Philippians 4:4

I say it again…. It is a phrase found several times in the Bible. Say it again. Whatever has been said is worth repeating. Say it again. Jesus and Paul repeated their teachings.
I'll say it again—it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!" Matthew 19:24

I'll say it again. If you are trying to find favor with God by being circumcised, you must obey every regulation in the whole law of Moses. Galatians 5:3

For I have told you often before, and I say it again with tears in my eyes, that there are many whose conduct shows they are really enemies of the cross of Christ. Philippians 3:18

In this verse…Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice…consider what is worth repeating. In this verse…joy. Be full of joy in the Lord. Joyful. God created joy for a reason…to give people a happy feeling. He wants us to be full of His joy…to rejoice. Always.

Choices? Choose joy.

Prayer ~ Lord God, I say it again… fill us with Your joy…overflowing. Pure joy that was created by You and infused into our lives by Your very presence. Joy unexplainable and full of mercy.
