Shout to the Lord
by Denise Hartmann-Echterling
“Rejoice in the Lord and be glad, you righteous; sing, all you who are upright in heart!” Psalm 32:11 The Psalms are filled with exhortations to “shout” and “rejoice,” to praise God enthusiastically.
At times, however, we sure do not feel like praising God, and certainly not aloud. Loss and pain seem to push us from Him, causing us to focus on our hurts and our tears. Doubt, fear, and defeat also become the enemies of joy, bringing with them an almost suffocating cloud of depression.
At these times, we need to raise our hands and our head and look again at who God is and what He had done for us. We must remind ourselves that He is our Savior, comfort, shelter, refuge and our strength. No one can ever compare to our powerful and loving God.
What is stealing your joy? Bring it to the Lord and then thank Him for being with you and working in you. We must always remember, who He is, what He has done, and what He has promised in His Word. Our praises may start as a whisper, but we must be determined to “press in” and to always keep praising!
Soon we will be singing and shouting for joy for NOTHING can ever compare to the promises we have in Him!
