Rejoice before the LORD your God

* Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. Psalms 100:2
* Rejoice before the LORD your God, you, your sons and daughters... Deuteronomy 12:12

As we get ready this morning to worship the Lord in the congregation of fellow believers, let us remember these verses and the emphasis today is on gladness.

In Isaiah 35:10 we read, "...the ransomed of the LORD will return. They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads. Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away."

Aren't we the "ransomed of the Lord"? Are we glad this morning? In spite of everything going on in our lives let us rejoice in His presence singing joyful songs, worshipping Him from the bottom of our hearts.

The more we worship, the happier we get, the joy of salvation will be renewed in us and no man can take that away from us. Amen!

Love you in Christ. God bless you.
