Whoever presents a thank [praise] offering honors me. To whoever obeys my commands, I will reveal my power to deliver
Psalm 50:23 (NET)

Count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
James 1:2-3 (NKJV)
[Jesus] is able, once and forever, to save those who come to God through him. He lives forever to intercede with God on their behalf.
Hebrews 7:25 (NLT)


Earlier this week, I woke up remembering the words of Psalm 50, verse 23. I received them as God’s instruction for the day. Clear and simple. Give thanks and sing songs of praise. Later in the day when feeling discouraged and tired, I remembered this instruction. I began singing. I began walking. The Spirit gave me a new song. As I sang the words, I felt strength in my body and joy in my heart.

I’ve been meditating on the above Scriptures and the words of my song all week, asking God for additional understanding. I’m sharing these words with you so that if you desire, you may meditate on them this weekend, as we remember the death and resurrection of Jesus, our Savior and Lord.

For those of you who, like me, tend to become despondent, may the words of this song renew your faith and increase your joy in Jesus.
