In Your name they rejoice all day long, and in Your righteousness, they are exalted – Psalm 89:16
When the bible says, ‘In Your name’, it means in many place ‘in according to the will of God’. We will always have cause to rejoice when we are walking in the will of God. The will of God is simple: It is to love God by being obedient to Him, and to love our fellow men by serving them with our gifts to meet their needs. Thus, the will of God is both vertical towards God and horizontal towards man, just like the cross is both vertical and horizontal. Next time you think of the cross, consider that God wants us to love Him and to love our fellow man just like Jesus showed on the cross. No one operating in the will of God to love will be sad or downcast for long. And when we make the right-choice of operating in love, we find that we are exalted by God. Do you want things to change? Do you want to get and feel better? Then focus your life on one thing: Love.
The degree to which I love is the degree to which I will experience joy and exaltation
