SHOUT IT OUT!

Psalm 70:4 NLT

But may all who search for you

be filled with joy and gladness in you.

May those who love your salvation

repeatedly shout, “God is great!”

People often seem to have things to shout about, whether it’s politics, or some issue they want us all to know about!

But our Psalmist wants us to shout about the greatness of our God, to magnify Him, not just once, but over and over again. One translation says ‘continually’.

Why are we do it? It’s because we love the wonderful truth and reality of His salvation. Without it we would have no hope, we would be lost for all eternity with no help, no forgiveness, no grace, no right standing with God, no healing, no future and no Jesus to rescue us.

But praise God we do have Jesus our Redeemer, and we do have all of those things, so just in case you haven’t done it for a while, why not go round the house and shout it out, “God is great, let the Lord be magnified.” That’ll chase away the enemy pretty quick because we know our praises defeat him for sure and we have so much to praise God for!

David was in trouble but he reminds us that searching for God will bring its own reward because it will fill us with joy and gladness, and I can’t imagine why anyone wouldn’t want that, can you?😊

So let’s praise our God today and as we search for Him we’ll find Him in the smallest daisy, as well as in the cosmos of stars and galaxies, but especially in the challenges of the day, because He’s there too. And tomorrow we can do it again, and the next day and the next and the next….😊

Our God is worthy of all our praise today. Hallelujah. Let’s shout it out, “Our God is Great, and greatly to be praised.” Amen.
