Being glad in the Lord involves experiencing joy and satisfaction from His presence and works.
To be glad in the Lord signifies a deep-rooted joy that stems from understanding His goodness and grace toward us. As Psalm 32:11 states, 'Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you righteous; shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart.' This kind of gladness is not dependent on external circumstances but is deeply rooted in our relationship with God, acknowledging His love, mercy, and redemptive work in our lives. The joy we experience from being in communion with God impacts our worship and interactions within the body of Christ, fostering a culture of exuberance and thankfulness for His blessings.
