Key
Verses:47:1,6
“Clap your
hands, all you people!
Shout joyfully to God with a joyous shout! Sing
praises to God! Sing praises! Sing praises to our king! Sing praises.” CEB
Sing, shout, clap, make a joyful noise!
Let us rejoice, let us dance and sing. Let us take a moment to revel in all
that is good, all that is beautiful, all that can make us smile. So much in our
lives draws our attention to what is wrong, to what is hurting what is broke.
Let us stop, let us take a moment to see the beauty, to experience the joy, to
laugh, to smile, to remember in it all God is good. The darkness, the brokeness
the hurting and the pain swirl around, with 65 mile house winds like the
hurricane which just passed up the East Coast. But God is still good. God is at
work in this world, bringing righteousness, salvation and redemption. Each
moment of redemption deserves a song. Whenever the light conquers the darkness
we should dance. Shout to God. Clap. Let the world know that there is joy and
beauty in it all. Let us remember who God is and how much in our life is good because
of God’s grace and forgiveness.
