What does the Bible say about happiness for Christians?

The Scriptures indicate that true happiness is not derived from worldly possessions or achievements, but rather from a deep awareness of being chosen and beloved by God. In Psalm 65:4, we see that happiness is linked to approaching God and being satisfied with His goodness. This happiness is God-given, rooted in grace, and stems from knowing our sins are forgiven and that we are united with Christ. Ultimately, happiness for the believer is found in knowing we are His and trusting Him for both our salvation and daily sustenance.
