Psalm 118:24-This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

In practical terms, what does this actually mean for us, especially for the sons and daughters of Daddy God? Definitely throughout the day, we will have opportunities to showcase Jesus Christ through our lives. This day we are moving closer to Daddy-God’s unrevealed or revealed ultimate plan being fully manifested in our lives. It means Daddy-God will provide for us the portion of needs for this day. He will provide the needed and correct amount of opportunities.

We will encounter the needed number of smiles and well-wishes to aid in infusing our day with the ability to give smiles and wish-wishes to others.  The right amount of happiness, so that we won’t be overwhelmed with the realities of life’s difficulties.  He will provide peace for this day so that even in the midst of the trials and tribulations allotted for this day, we can remain calm and yet trusting in Him. We will have the needed portion of food for our nourishment to strengthen us for today’s activities.

We will encounter for this day the needed connections and interactions with others. As we have sown compliments, we will receive this day’s portion of compliments to brighten our day. A daily portion of any needed rebukes or encouragement have been assigned for this day, whether verbally from others, unction in our mind and spirit, through what is read, etc. We will gain lessons of wisdom during this day. There will be opportunities to agree and say yes, as well as encountered opportunities to disagree and say no. 

There will be opportunities to meet new friends, as well as, opportunities to enhance established relationships! We will be able to exercise our natural and spiritual gifts.  There will be opportunities for us to bless others as needed, as well as to receive our needed blessings from others. We will experience the needed favor of God for this day. There will definitely be protection this day from dangers seen and unseen.

There will be new levels of learning and revelations for this day. We will have the opportunity to mature and grow even the more both naturally and spiritually.  This is the day for new beginnings, regardless of what has been our past. This day provides the possibility of what has been plaguing us to cease, never to be experienced again.  Opportunities to embrace and be embraced! Opportunities to display compassion and to receive compassion!  

This is the day of opportunities to work and achieve new dimensions. Daddy-God has given us the needed grace and strength; EVERY THING WE NEED to victoriously and effectively run the race of this day and to cross the finish line for this day. Therefore, this is certainly the day which the Lord has made FOR YOU since you are still alive and experiencing this day. He will handle the needs of this day FOR US so that WE CAN FOCUS ON OUR MANDATED ASSIGMENTS FOR THIS DAY!

Therefore, we should keep our eyes on Him and follow His lead.  Since we have His faithful promises and displays of provisions for this day, we don’t have to be jealous of others and their provisions for this day. Because we know that Satan is NOT HAPPY with OUR “LOVED BY GOD STATUS”, we are to be diligent of his attempts to steal, kill and destroy our opportunities of this day and NOT ALLOW HIM TO DO SO. We will survive and experience all which Daddy-God has for us as we remember no matter what this day brings, God is Yet God and in charge of our lives. We are His special people! Therefore, for this day, let it be another day that we keep on keeping on in Jesus’ name!  God bless you and yours!
