February 2: Heavenly Happiness.

Satisfied With His Works.
May the glory of the Lord endure forever; may the Lord rejoice in His works.--Psalm 104:31, NKJV

HEAVEN AND EARTH were filled with rejoicing.  "The morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy."  Job 38:7.--Testimonies for the Church, vol. 6, 349.

The creation was now complete.  "The heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them."...Eden bloomed on earth....No taint of sin or shadow of death marred the fair creation....

The great Jehovah had laid the foundations of the earth; He had dressed the whole world in the garb of beauty and had filled it with things useful to man; He had created all the wonders of the land and the sea.--Patriarchs and Prophets, 47.

Peace brooded over the world; for earth was in harmony with heaven.  "God saw everything that He had made, and, behold, it was very good;" and He rested in the joy of His completed work.--The Desire of Ages, 281.

                                              "You are worthy, O Lord,
                                       To receive glory and honor and power;
                                               For You created all things,
                                    And by Your will they exist and were created."
                                                                           --Revelation 4:11, NKJV

                                  God  saw all that he had made, and it was very good.
                                                                                             --Genesis 1:31, NIV
