God rejoices over you. He finds great delight in you and will protect you like a mighty warrior. Sometimes we need to hear that and be reminded of how God is with us. Just those words read during our devotion time can encourage us for that day. You don’t have to worry about impressing other people; God finds great joy in you.
Zephaniah 3:17
The LORD your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.
God Finds Great Joy
Israel had been through a lot, Idol worship, judgment, captivity, and now returning from exile. Life was rough, but God wanted to remind his children that he hadn’t forgotten about them, but instead found great joy. He loved them so much that he sang over them. You have to have a lot of love and joy in you to sing over someone. God does that for his children.
God Is With You
When you are down, remember that God rejoices over you. He is a mighty warrior in your corner. He will fight to save you, and in his love, he will no longer rebuke you for your failures. It doesn’t matter where you have come from or what you are going through right now God hasn’t forgotten about you. In fact, he is right there with you finding great joy in you.
You might be going through a tough season where God is hard to find in the midst of your struggle. He is there with you. He is fighting for you and finds great joy in you. Press in to know the Lord. Block out all of the distractions and let the Holy Spirit minister to your heart. Rest in the Love of Jesus Christ and wait on him.
