What the Bible says about Rejoicing with Purpose
(From Forerunner Commentary)

Leviticus 23:40-43 Deuteronomy 16:15 uses an even stronger phrase in relation to rejoicing and the feasts: "so that you [shall, KJV] surely rejoice." The wording is so strong we might be misled into thinking it is to be one big blast! Make no mistake, He desires us to rejoice, but He wants us to rejoice with purpose. If we are not rejoicing with His purpose in mind, we will have merely titillated our senses. John W. Ritenbaugh Preparing for the Feast Related Topics: Feast of Tabernacles | Praise | Praising God | Rejoice | Rejoice in the Lord | Rejoicing
