"The LORD your God is in your midst, a Mighty One who will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you by His love; He will exult over you with loud singing." Zephaniah 3:17
God gave me this verse to share with you today as a reminder that He is always in your midst and that He never leaves your side. This is also a reminder that He does rejoice over you. Can you believe it? God actually rejoices over us, and He exults us with loud singing!
I looked up the definition of exult, and it says, "To be extremely joyful, to express great pleasure or happiness, to rejoice exceedingly, or to be highly elated.", and this is how God feels about us! So much so, that he expresses it with loud singing! What happiness this brings, knowing that we are never alone, even when we feel like it. What happiness this brings, knowing that God is mighty and He WILL save us, and what happiness this brings knowing that He takes pride in all that we do because He is a proud parent and we are His children!
So, with that being said, I encourage you to take a moment today to thank Him for this word, and to praise Him for the happiness that it brings. Let's also thank Him for the comfort that it brings as well as we are reminded that His love is what quiets us and brings us peace. Amen!
