Luke 10:17-20
17 Then the seventy returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in Your name.” 18 And He said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. 20 Nevertheless do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven.”
Rejoicing in Christ is being eternally grateful for our reconciliation to our Father through the unwarranted and undeserved punishment to death of His Son for us. Because my name is written in His book, I rejoice, no matter what things I am able to do in His strength and in His name here.
