Dear Christian friends, we should always be excited for God. When we look at the Bible, we see many people who were full of excitement for the Lord.
One such example is King David. He was a man after God’s own heart. When he brought the Ark of the Lord back to Jerusalem, David danced with all his might. We see there that his joy overflowed, because he knew that God’s presence was always with him.
We see another example when the Holy Spirit descended on His disciples after the Lord Jesus Christ returned to heaven. When His disciples received the Holy Spirit, they went out on the streets and preached the gospel with boldness. Their excitement for God was amazing to everyone.
Dear friends, usually when we are excited about something, we want to share it with others. Our excitement for God should be the same. We should structure our lives in such a way that we can show our love for the Lord Jesus to others. But let us remember that this excitement we have is a gift from Him, so that we can share it with everyone.
Dear friends, now let’s see the Bible scriptures below that talk about ‘excitement for God’.
