God Sings

On that day they will say to Jerusalem, “Do not fear, Zion;  do not let your hands hang limp. The LORD your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.”
Zephaniah 3:16-17 (NIV)

We are facing a situation that might lead us away from God, letting our hands hang down and failing to praise and acknowledge God in our midst. Yet He is here, singing for us and taking delight in us His people! So God likes to sing too! He even likes to share his lullabies with those he loves. Not only is God Abba Father, he is also like a mother. He gently rocks and quiets his children with his affectionate care. Do not allow the noise of the world to drown out His singing!

Prayer:  O God, I pray that when the storms of life rage against me, I will remember these words and find refuge, comfort and peace in your sheltering care. Make me aware, O God, of your singing in my life as you make your salvation more clear to me each day. Through my Savior Jesus I pray. Amen.
