Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us! What joy! Restore our fortunes, Lord, as streams renew the desert. Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy.
Dear Ones: Shouts of Joy! Even in perilous times, Christians have reasons to shout with joy. We are like the parched soil of the desert being renewed by the natural rain. There is a witness right now in the natural. The Death Valley region has received so much rain in recent months that a lake has developed. (See the link below.) When the rain comes, the desert blooms. This is how the land gives shouts of joy.
Nothing is too hard for our Father to accomplish for those who call upon Him. The tears that we shed in prayer over our families and other issues important to us are captured by Him. These tears are liquid prayers that are very precious to our Father. Think about it, He gave us emotions and the ability to express joy and sorrow. He made us able to cry tears of joy and sorrow. This was not an accident. We were made in His image and likeness so we can only believe that we have inherited this ability from Him. (See Psalm 56:8.)
Consider these things when you go to Him in prayer. Let shouts of joy come forth for He is good, and His mercy endures forever. He will do amazing things for you, your family, and your nation. As the blessed of the Lord, you will be a blessing to those who are in your sphere of influence. Have a joy-filled day. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
