Psalm 100 tells us the way to succeed each and every day as we live our lives for Jesus. Let’s take a look…

1 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. 2 Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. 3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. 4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. 5 For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations. Psalm 100:1-5 (KJV)

Many people will try to tell you what you need to do each day to be successful. But, if you really want to know the truth, turn to the Bible.

To start off each day right, your daily prescription is found in Psalm 100!

15 ways to ensure success each day:

1. Praise God with a joyful noise.

2. Sing in God’s presence.

3. Be glad as you serve God.

4. Know and declare that God is God. (and you are not)

5. Know and declare that God made you.

6. Know and declare that you belong to God.

Psalm 100, in verses 1 through 5, tells us 15 ways to ensure success each and every day as we live our lives for Jesus.

That is good news worth sharing!

If you want to ensure success each day, begin by praising the Lord and declaring the truths found in Psalm 100.

You make known to me the path of life; in your presence there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Psalm 16:11 ESV

Happy New YEAR!!!!!!!!

We’ve been talking the last few times together about happiness.

It is something that everyone wants.

In America we even have in the United States Declaration of Independence that happiness is an “unalienable right”.

It states: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

In Chinese, they have a character that translates as “double happiness”. It can also be translated as “double happy” or “double joy”. This symbol is a Chinese ornamental design commonly used as a decoration. You will see it on Chinese lanterns, and on greeting cards.

The truth is, God created you, and wants to you to be happy.

But you will only be truly happy if you know your Creator. Jesus came so that we might be reconciled to God. He came so we could have a relationship with Him. He knows that will bring us joy and happiness.

God would like to double your happiness, as you spend your time with Him. Worship and prayer are key. Praise, rejoicing and thanksgiving are key.

Find time to experience the “fullness of joy” today that can only be found with God.

God can give you double happiness this year! Let’s make 2015 the best year ever!
