The Joy of the Lord is Your Strength – How to be Strong in a World of Distractions - Daily Devotional

 “ The Joy of the Lord is your strength” - Nehemiah 8:10

- INSPIRATION -

In a world full of distractions, it can be hard to stay focused on what's important in life. In this section, we will discuss how to find joy in God and how that joy can help you stay strong in a world full of distractions.

1. The Joy of the Lord is Your Strength - How to be Strong in a World Full of Distractions

2. How to Find Joy in God

The strength of the Lord is our strength. As we embrace the joy of the Lord, our strength is increased and we are made strong in a world full of distractions.


Distractions may be external and internal, but they steal our happiness, weaken our joy, and sap away at our strength. The world around us takes up all of our time. Even inside a church building, there are many distractions stealing away at your time and attention. Phones ringing, people talking to you across the aisle, friends who want to stop by for quick prayer or for prayer requests - these are just some of the distractions that can distract you from your worship.

It’s not human nature to be able to ignore those distractions – that’s why it’s so important to enjoy

In today’s world, it's easy to get distracted from our goals and lose sight of what's important. It’s also hard to stay focused on the tasks at hand when it seems like there are so many other things that need to be done.

So, how do we find joy again in a world full of distractions? How do we find strength in the face of adversity?

The answer is that we must focus on what is important and remember how strong God has made us. As we lean into Him and depend on His strength, He will bring us joy in all things.

Joy is an excellent tool that the Lord has given us to use against our inner struggles. It is a weapon that we should not overlook and neglect.

When you are joyfully focused on Christ, it becomes impossible for distractions to overwhelm you. You will not only experience peace like never before but also joy that is unending and full of hope.


Joy can be found in different ways when we are not looking for it. The power of laughter is one example; it loosens up the tightness inside of us and allows Joy to flow in freely. We should always strive to find joy in every day moments, even if they are just little things like how the sun shines through the clouds or how brightly a tree smiles back at us, because these things make a life worth living!

His Plans Are Good - Daily Devotional

  Verse: Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Devotional: Today, let us take comfort in the assurance that our heavenly Father has plans for us, plans that are filled with goodness and hope. It's easy to become anxious or uncertain about the future, but God's Word reminds us that His intentions for our lives are nothing short of remarkable. In Jeremiah 29:11, we discover a promise that speaks directly to our hearts. God is not a distant observer of our lives; He is intimately involved, and His plans for us are purposeful. Even when circumstances appear challenging, we can trust that God's intentions are for our ultimate well-being. In times of uncertainty, we often question what the future holds. However, God invites us to place our trust in Him, the One who knows the end from the beginning. As we do so, we can find peace in the know...

Walking By Faith - Daily Devotional

Verse: "For we walk by faith, not by sight." - 2 Corinthians 5:7 (ESV) Devotional: As Christians, our journey is one of faith. We are called to walk by faith, not by what we see or understand with our natural senses. This can be both a challenging and a rewarding path. Walking by faith means trusting in God's promises even when circumstances seem uncertain or difficult. It means believing that God's plan is greater than our understanding. Imagine walking in a dense fog, unable to see more than a few steps ahead. In life, we often face situations where we can't see the road ahead clearly. It's during these moments that our faith is put to the test. But just as a person walking in the fog relies on each step they take, we can rely on God with every step we take in our faith journey. The Bible tells us that faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1). It's like having a confident assurance in God's promises e...

Happiness - Daily Devotional

  Bible Verse: "This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it." - Psalm 118:24 Happiness is something that we all desire and seek in our lives. It is a feeling of contentment, joy, and satisfaction. As Christians, we know that our ultimate source of happiness is God. However, sometimes in our daily lives, we can get caught up in the challenges and struggles we face, and we forget to be happy and grateful for what we have. The Bible verse above reminds us that every day is a gift from God, and we should rejoice and be glad in it. No matter what we may face in our daily lives, we can always find something to be grateful for and something to be happy about. It could be something as small as a beautiful sunrise, a kind word from a friend, or a moment of peace in our hearts. As Christians, we have the assurance that no matter what we face, God is with us, and He will never leave us or forsake us. This should bring us great joy and happiness, even in the mids...
