GOD SINGS JOYFUL SONGS OVER YOU

Zephaniah 3:17 
For the Lord your God is living among you. 
He is a mighty saviour. He will take delight in you with gladness. 
With his love, he will calm all your fears. 
He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.

I love this verse because it makes me feel like God is wrapping His arms all around us and singing to us.  I’m so glad they’re joyful songs and hope they make you feel that way too. 

It tells us He delights in us so I looked it up and it means He has extreme pleasure or satisfaction in us, that we give Him great pleasure, that He’s glad we belong to Him. How lovely that is!😊

It goes on to say that if we’ll allow Him to, He’ll calm all our fears, and how does He do it? It says He does it with His love. The love of God isn’t like any other love on earth, it goes above and beyond all we can understand and think. It keeps no record of our wrongs because of what Jesus did at the Cross for each one of us. His love is faithful, unconditional, thinks the best of us and will never fail us. There is nothing to fear when we have a God like that.

I wonder if you’ve ever asked the Lord Jesus to come into your life so He can sing over you too? If you’re not sure then why not do it today? Let me invite you to join with us and pray this prayer out loud…

Lord Jesus, thank You for loving me and dying for me on the cross. I repent of my sins and believe Your precious blood washes me clean of every one of them. I make You my Lord and my Saviour, now and forever. I believe in my heart that You rose from the dead and that You are alive today. Because of Your finished work, I am now a beloved child of God and heaven is my home. Thank You for giving me Your Holy Spirit, Your eternal life, and filling my heart with Your peace and joy. Amen. 

He loves you and sings over you with great joy and His love casts out all fear.  Why not tell someone and spread your joy? Or let me know in the comments. I’d love to hear from you.😊
