Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise from the end of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that fills it, the coastlands and their inhabitants. Let the desert and its cities lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar inhabits; let the habitants of Sela sing for joy, let them shout from the top of the mountains. Let them give glory to the LORD, and declare his praise in the coastlands. The LORD goes out like a mighty man, like a man of war he stirs up his zeal; he cries out, he shouts aloud, he shows himself mighty against his foes. For a long time I have held my peace; I have kept still and restrained myself; now I will cry out like a woman in labor; I will gasp and pant. I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their vegetation; I will turn the rivers into islands, and dry up the pools. And I will lead the blind in a way that they do not know, in paths that they have not known I will guide them. I will turn the darkness before them into light, the rough places into level ground. These are the things I do, and I do not forsake them. They are turned back and utterly put to shame, who trust in carved idols, who say to metal images, “You are our gods.” Hear, you deaf, and look, you blind, that you may see! (Isaiah 42:10-18 ESV)
When have you felt like singing? All the time?
We are sometime down in the dumps and don’t feel like singing the praises of God, and we do not feel it.
But think about it for a moment…
Jesus always sang the praises of God everywhere He went. Even on the cross He was asking God to forgive those who were doing this to Him…
So what situation are you in that you can not sing the praises of God? He is always with you and will always be there through whatever darkness you face, and it is not as bad as the cross…
