God Is Mighty
“The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; he will save, he will rejoice over thee with joy; he will rest in his love, he will joy over thee with singing.” (Zephaniah 3:17)
Today’s Morsel: Zephaniah, which means Jehovah has treasured, states that the God in the midst of thee is mighty. Notice here if you will, what a wonderful rush of exuberant gladness there is in these words. The swift short clause he uses ought to cause your faith to leap inside of you like the baby did in Elizabeth’s womb when she heard the news from Mary that she was with child of the Holy Ghost. He uses clauses such as: He will save, He will rejoice over thee with joy; He will rest in His love, He will joy over thee with singing. This is what the God in the midst of you will do for you. He will save. “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12) He will rejoice over thee with joy. “Therefore the redeemed of the LORD shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head: they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.” (Isaiah 51:11) He will rest in His love. “The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.” (Jeremiah 31:3) He will joy over thee with singing. “For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.” (Isaiah 55:12) Our God is mighty. He won’t leave us, nor will He forsake us.
Sing: What a mighty God we serve, what a mighty God we serve. Angels bow before Him; heaven and earth adore Him. What a mighty God we serve.
