PSALM 30:11-12
You have turned my mourning into joyful dancing. You have taken away my clothes of mourning and clothed me with joy, that I might sing praises to You and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give You thanks forever!
Today as I reflect upon my journey with You, my Lord, I reflect on how much I have to be thankful for! The many many times You have turned my troubled times into times of joy, for You have heard and answered my prayers, You have heard my cries and answered me!
Psalm 31:22
As for me, I said in my alarm, “I am cut off from Your eyes.” Nevertheless You heard the voice of my supplications (specific requests) When I cried to You [for help].
Psalm 118:21
I will give thanks to You, for You have heard and answered me; And You have become my salvation [my Rescuer, my Savior].
I’m forever thankful that You hear me when I pray. When I lift my heart to You, You are never too far to hear!
Psalm 6:9
Yahweh has heard my supplication, Yahweh receives my prayer.
What a blessing to my life and comfort You are!! YOUR responses always bring me great comfort, supernatural Peace, Strength, and unspeakable Joy!! You lift me up from the place of despair the enemy would like to keep me in. You help me to lift my eyes above the circumstances until I am face to face with You and once again I can see the circumstance from my place of secured victory!
1 Corinthians 15:57
But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
You turn everything that the enemy planned for me to my good!!! Your plans for me are always the very BEST!!! How then can I not want to praise You for Your Goodness and Your Love toward me?
For it is without limits and reaches to the very Heavens!!! With every breath and all of my heart, I give You praise and Thanksgiving!!! You Alone are Worthy.
I pray that all of us will do better at honoring God and being faithful and quick to offer up our praise and thanksgiving when our Father answers our prayers. May we be ever mindful of His constant Faithfulness to us, in so many ways each and every day!!
I leave today’s endnote reflection with this question: how many times have we cried out to God for help and then when He answers our “immediate” response is to praise and worship Him? Or to dance for joy because He has turned our mourning over the problems into dancing?
Saying thank you, is good, yes, but I do think that there are so many times we can offer more than just “thank you.”
Do you dance before the Lord offering up your praise? Have you ever thought to do that? Did you know that it would bring Him great joy if you did? Why not start today?
I’LL DANCE FOR JOY
I’ll dance for joy
And praise Your Name
I’ll dance for You
Without any shame.
I’ll dance for joy
When days are bleak
I’ll dance for joy
When I am weak.
I’ll dance for joy
Because You are My King
I’ll dance for joy
For the Love You bring.
I’ll dance for joy
With all my heart
Abiding with You
We’re never apart.
I’ll dance for joy
To bring You pleasure
For You are My Love
My Truest Treasure.
I’ll dance for joy
All of my days
Thankful for Your Love
In so many ways.
I’ll dance for joy
To show You how much
I treasure Your Love
I treasure Your touch.
