How should we respond to a living God who has done all the work of redemption for us? Since the price for our sin has been paid by Jesus, we worship Him by offering ourselves as living sacrifice available for God’s use.
Joy is found in God Alone. God causes the Israelites to have joy and commit themselves to joyous praise. He teaches them where to locate their joy and how to have joy that isn’t based on feelings or circumstances but based on an everlasting relationship with Him.
