The good news of the gospel reveals how God’s grace meets us where our own efforts fall short.
Unfortunately, there are no problem free lives. However, Paul had learned to be joyful always even in the midst of hardship? How did he remain positive even though events hadn’t turned out the way he wanted? Through this passage we can learn Paul's secret to a joyful life.
God loves a cheerful giver because God Himself is a cheerful giver. By his great grace, he pours out blessings to those who give so that they may be able to give, and reap a harvest of righteousness, all of it resulting in thanksgiving to God.
Jacob decides it's time to flee Laban, and Laban pursues and catches up with him. The Fear of Isaac protects Jacob. Apart from Christ, God is feared in a dreadful way. In Christ, God is feared in love and reverence, because he provides and protects.
King Solomon was abundantly blessed by God, but over time his heart was led astray by his hundreds of wives, and he began to follow their gods too. An idolatrous heart is like a cheating heart, and God in his anger would tear the kingdom away from Solomon. Yet out of his mercy he allowed Solomon to rule over 1 tribe, that one day a Savior king would come. God is angry with the wicked every day, but he sent his one and only Son Jesus Christ to save us from our sins and bring us into his eternal kingdom.

my heart is steadfast!
I will sing and make melody!
