“The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents and private dwellings
of the [uncompromisingly] righteous: the right hand of the Lord does valiantly
and achieves strength!”
Psalm 118:15
I love the picture this verse paints. What a statement right?
This verse is prophetic for me in this time. There were seasons in the past
where the sound of rejoicing had been heard in my home.
But not at the moment.
There are things I am waiting on God for, things I am praying for
and that is why this verse spoke to me.
The victorious rejoice, the sick woman who has had her prayer for healing
answered rejoices, the man who has finally gotten a job rejoices, a young
man or woman who has received a full scholarship to the university of their
dreams rejoices.
Like I said before, this verse is a prophecy, a prophecy for the person who is in the
dark right now, for the person who is crying out to God for an answer, for
a miracle!
It’s declaring that, even though things may seem to be falling apart
in your life and things may seem like they are never going to get better,
and the pain will never go away, don’t despair because the day of rejoicing will
come. The day of rejoicing will come friend.
The healing will come, the breakthrough will come, the answer will come,
salvation will come!
That is a promise!
Let’s read that verse again,
“The voice of the rejoicing and salvation is in the tents and private dwellings
of the [uncompromisingly] righteous: the right hand of the Lord does valiantly
and achieves strength!”
Psalm 118:15
No matter what the enemy throws at us there will be rejoicing and salvation in our
homes. No matter how hard he tries to keep us down he will not succeed. Let’s
look at another amazing passage of scripture,
“When the Lord brought back the captives [who entered] to Zion, we were like
those who dream [it seemed so unreal].
Then were our mouths filled with laughter, and our tongues with singing.
Then they said, among the nations, The Lord has done great things for them.
The Lord has done great things for us! We are glad!. “
Psalm 126:1-3
I love this passage of scripture! The people of Israel condemned themselves when
they forsook the Lord.
They were taken captive because of their unfaithfulness to God.
Their enemies thought they had won. They thought they had eradicated them
for good. But that was not the end of the story for them.
He delivered them from the land of their captivity!
He turned their mourning and their darkness into rejoicing, into laughter!
There was singing and laughter where there was once dismay, pain and crying.
Where there was guilt and condemnation there was now favor and grace!
Where there was hopelessness there was now hope!
This was their testimony,
“The Lord has done great things for us! We are glad!”
Your winter will end. The sound of rejoicing and salvation will be in your home!
You will not die, but live!
Believe in God’s word. No matter what you facing today believe there will be rejoicing
and salvation in your home. You will be rejoicing because God has been good to you.
There will be rejoicing because your prayers have been answered.
You will rejoice because the Lord has been faithful and continues to be faithful to you!
As I end I want to leave you with one more scripture,
“I shall not die but live, and shall declare the works and recount the illustrious acts
of the Lord.”
Bless you friends……
