CELEBRATE– by Stephanie M. White
Celebrate the Feast of Harvest with the firstfruits of the crops you sow in your field. Celebrate the Feast of Ingathering at the end of the year, when you gather in your crops from the field. Exodus 23:16 NIV
Celebrate! Celebrate God’s goodness in your life! Celebrate the harvest His Word produces in your life! Celebrate all that you are blessed with!
God has blessed us in so many ways and there are too many times that we fail to remember to celebrate His goodness. We can even overlook His goodness when we allow our minds to focus on the things that appear to be negative in our lives. What are you focused on? Are you focused on your problem or God's promise concerning the problem? Focus matters!
Celebrating is an important part of life. Too many times celebrating gets put on the back burner. We get entangled in the day-to-day and we endure life instead of celebrating it!
How can we incorporate celebrating into our lives? We can set time aside on purpose. We make our schedules; we choose what to do with our time. It is true that we make time for what we deem as important – we need to see celebrating as important.
David knew how good God was and he wasn’t afraid to celebrate (2 Samuel 6:21; Psalms 145:7). Are we? We need to abide in His goodness; we need to focus on the Word of God that declares all that God has done for us and celebrate. He has made us righteous in Christ – that is something that should keep us celebrating for life!
