“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” (Isaiah 51:11).
“May I never boast except in the Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ,
through whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world” (Galatians 6:14).
Our boast is in the Lord who has ransomed us. We rejoice in Him. He
has given us a new song of joy. We no longer sing the world’s song.
Now, we are singing the Lord’s song. The world’s way is always there to
pull us away from the Lord. We must “always be zealous for the fear of
the Lord” (Proverbs 23:17).
Psalm 48:1-14 Lord, we worship You in the place of worship – “Within Your Temple, we meditate on Your unfailing love.” Help us to go out from there, and play our part in seeing that Your praise “reaches to the ends of the earth” (Psalm 48:: 9-11). How will other people know of Your love, if we don’t tell them? How will they find their way to Your House, if we don’t invite them? When we share Your Word with others, help us to remember Your promise: “My Word… will not return to Me empty, but will… achieve the purpose for which I sent it” (Isaiah 55:11).
