In a gray mid-November Sunday morning, when the thread of snow is at 100%, my heart turns to Scripture for my daily praise. As we read Isaiah Chapter 12 we see that it starts with the expression "In that day you will say..." According to Jon Courson's commentary, this phrase tells the reader that even though there is an application to the events in Isaiah's day, there is also a potential message for the time to come...for us today. Let's worship Our Lord Almighty and give Him Thanks with the inspired words of the prophet, as we read Chapter 12 - Songs of Praise:
In that day you will say:
“I will praise you, Lord.
Although you were angry with me,
your anger has turned away
and you have comforted me.
Surely God is my salvation;
I will trust and not be afraid.
The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense;
he has become my salvation.”
With joy you will draw water
from the wells of salvation.
In that day you will say:
“Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name;
make known among the nations what he has done,
and proclaim that his name is exalted.
Sing to the Lord, for he has done glorious things;
let this be known to all the world.
Shout aloud and sing for joy, people of Zion,
for great is the Holy One of Israel among you.”
Praised be the Holy name of Jesus, Our Salvation. May we always be ready to sing songs of praise to Him. Amen!
