Subject: When God Sings |
Bible Note: "There is an unrivaled picture in the word where the Lord is even represented as singing with joy over His people. Who could have conceived of the Eternal One as bursting forth into a song? Yet so it is written. (See Zephaniah 3:17 above.) "As He looked upon the newly created world, He spoke and said, 'It is very good,' -- but He did not sing. And as He views the works of providence, I do not read that He sings. But when He gazes on His people, the purchase of Jesus' blood, His Own chosen ones, the great heart of the Infinite restrains itself no longer, but, wonder of wonders and miracle of miracles, God, the Eternal One, sings out of the joy of His soul!" --Charles H. Spurgeon Brothers and Sisters, The statistics say this is my 1000th note and that I've responded to 700 questions. Thank you for your patience with my long winded posts! Thank you, also, for correcting me when I've been wrong! In celebration of this statistical, but otherwise meaningless, anomaly, I just wanted to share this awesome verse with you. I cannot begin to fathom what it will be like to hear the Lord Himself sing! The very thought of it helps me to continue to persevere in Him. May the hope of such an experience and all the others He has in store for us (Ephesians 2:7), encourage each of us, in the Holy Spirit, to seek to show Him glory in the few remaining days we have yet to serve Him in this life. It won't be long, dear brothers and sisters! God bless you all! In Him, Doc PS I also love being the first to post on a verse. :-) |
