Joy is an Act of Worship
Commentators emphasize that rejoicing is not just an emotion but a command. God desires His people to thankfully enjoy the good things He provides. Matthew Henry notes that God wills for us to "make the most comforting use" of His gifts, seeing them as streams flowing from Him, the "Fountain of all consolation." This makes joyful gratitude an essential part of worship.
