"God has gone up with a shout; the LORD, amid trumpet blasts. Sing praise to God, sing praise; sing praise to our king, sing praise. For God is king over all the earth; sing hymns of praise." Psalms 47:6-8
Psalms 47 - Salvation. As man, Jesus went into the desert to prepare Himself for what was coming. In that time of reflection, did He contemplate these words, did He know that He would be raised up? He said so in scripture. "saying, "The Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed and be raised up on the third day.""
Greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. 1 John 4:4b

Luke 9:22 Jesus knew His story, do you know yours? Contemplating God's word and your own life brings about a joyful heart for you know Truth. Being rescued from a past that lead to destruction, being cleansed of sin, all bring about a joyful heart, for you know how God operated in your life. Maybe you haven't gotten there yet, sing praise. "Each must do as already determined, without sadness or compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver." 2 Corinthians 9:7 Sing Praise for death has been defeated, God is King over all the earth and of you, if you allow Him.
What is God saying to me: Listen
Dear Father, so many memories this morning that brings about a joyful heart, even in the troubles You were there when I wasn't. You prepare the way Father and You prepare the heart for a joyful day that just wants to sing praise. I thank You for the blessings of this world being in the desert, at times a little scary but also with the realization that You will not, can not forsake us. We are Your children and we are called to give You thanks. "In all circumstances give thanks, for this is the will of God for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Speak Lord for Your servant is listening. Triune God be my all. Triune God be my all. Triune God be my all. Amen.
