Is God concerned with our own personal happiness? I’m going to say “Yes!” and “No!” Though the Bible does indeed talk about being happy, it’s not as straightforward as you may think. Allow me to unpack this idea through the lens of one of King David’s psalms, written while he was at war. Here, David explicitly wrote that God’s people are happy people. Let’s find out why.

I. Because of Life's Conflict

II. Because of our Commitment

III. Because of God's Care

IV. Because of God's Character

Talk with God: Meditate on Psalm 144:2 and thank the Lord for His faithfulness as you “take refuge” in Him.

Talk with others: Encourage a fellow believer to intentionally spend time in the Word and in prayer this week.

Talk with kids: How can we be reminded that God loves us and cares for us?
