Delight in the Lord (Part Two)

Delight in the Lord (Part Two)

Earlier the same night that my husband was reading to me, I'd been to a meeting. The meeting opened with a song I'd only heard, in part, on the radio. (It's this song I'd listened to over and over again on the way to work that caused my heart to dance).

That night, as the song began to play my heart began to well up within me. Unlike David my worship took the form of tears, free flowing tears! The song wasn't even a little bit sad. However, something in the words struck a deep part of me, so much so that my soul responded. Just being in the room at that time was the culmination of something that only God Himself knew. He alone knows and knew how my heart longed to express and how I hadn't for such a very long time. The words were simple and yet powerful to me.

All Things Are Possible (Australia Hillsongs)

"Almighty God I lift You up My hiding place My safe refuge No other name like Jesus No power can stand against you.

My feet are planted on this rock And I will not be shaken My hope it comes from you alone My Lord And my salvation!

Your praise is always on my lips! Your Word is living in my heart And I will praise you with a new song My soul will bless you, Lord

You fill my life with greater joy Yes I delight myself in You And I will praise You with a new song My soul will bless You, Lord.

When I am weak You make me strong When I am poor, You make me rich For in the power of Your name All things are possible! All things are possible! All things are possible!"

I wish that I could share that song with all of you in person and we could have our own dance of worship, celebrating the God of our salvation, who has led us from victory to victory.

The songs tempo was happy, upbeat and so encouraging to my spirit that I asked to borrow it and that's how I wound up with it in my car, playing it over, over, over, over and over again. I couldn't help myself!! I wanted to experience the joy expressed in the song and each time I heard it was a delight!

My friends, today, whether it's in a recorded song or some other thing, find something to praise God for and then rejoice; worship with all that is presently in you.
