THE LORD IS MY SONG

Memorise:
The LORD is my strength and song, and is become my salvation. .. Psalm 118:14

Read:
Psalm 126:1-6

Message

It is wonderful to know Jesus and trust in Him. Over the past few days, I have been discussing the benefits of having Jesus as your Lord. Those who are still yet to totally surrender to His Lordship are depriving themselves of the tremendous blessings or being children of the Most High God.

People love good songs and love to sing new songs. When you make Jesus your Lord, He will not only give you a new song, He will become your song. He will not just fill your mouth with laughter, He will become your laughter and the source of your joy. After God brought the children of Israel out of Egypt and led them through the Red Sea, they began to sing a new song to the Lord:

    The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father's God, and I will exalt him.    ...Exodus 15:2

When God becomes your song, He will fill your mouth with joy and laughter. When He became Sarah's song, He filled her mouth with laughter, and people laughed along with her(Genesis 21:6). I pray that everyone who has mocked you will laugh with you, in Jesus' name.

When the devil thinks he has the upper hand or when he thinks he has done too much damage for things to ever become good in a Christian's life again, such a Christian should know that God is about to become his or her song. When the devil attacked Job and his family, he thought he had the final say. However, God came through for Job and gave him double of all he had lost (lob 42:12).

When God becomes your song, He will fill your mouth with songs of victory. When He wanted to destroy the wall of Jericho, He put a loud shout of victory in the mouth of His people.

    So the people shouted when the priests blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat, so that the people went up into the city, every man straight before him, and they took the city.    ...Joshua 6:20

Beloved, God wants to become your song. He wants to continually give you new songs of joy and victory. Surrender your life completely to him, and your days will be full of laughter and singing.

Bible In One Year:
Luke 7-8

Hymn:
Praise My Soul, The King Of Heaven

Key Point:
When you surrender your life completely to Jesus, He will become your song.

King James Version

Psalm 126:1-6

A Song of degrees. When the Lord turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. [2] Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The Lord hath done great things for them. [3] The Lord hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad. [4] Turn again our captivity, O Lord, as the streams in the south. [5] They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. [6] He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.
RCCG Hymn

Praise my soul, the king of heaven

  1. Praise my soul, the king of heaven,
    To His feet thy tribute bring;
    Ransom'd, heal'd, restor'd, forgiven.
    Who like thee
    His praise should sing?
    Praise Him! Praise Him!
    Praise the everlasting king.
  2. Praise Him for His grace and favour
    To our fathers in distress;
    Praise Him, still the same for ever
    Slow to chide and swift to bless:
    Praise Him! Praise Him!
    Glorious in His faithfulness.
  3. Angels, help us to adore Him!
    Ye behold Him face to face:
    Sun and moon, bow down before Him:
    Dwellers all in time and space,
    Praise Him! Praise Him!
    Praise with us the God of grace.
