Word for the day

8/27/25

Let all the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound, and all that is in it. Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them; let all the trees of the forest sing for joy. Let all creation rejoice before the Lord, before He comes, He comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in His fullness. Psalm 96:11–13

All creation will rejoice at God's final coming to the earth, when the long night of oppression, evil, and sin will be ended. The trees will sing praise when the world healer finally returns to judge and renew the earth.

Have you ever given it a thought that where God rules His humble creatures can be themselves; where God is, there is singing. At the creation 'the morning stars sang together'; at His coming, the earth will at last join in again.

Will you rejoice to see that day, knowing that in Christ there is no condemnation of you, only loving acceptance into God's family?

Heavenly Father fill us with the daily joy and hope that come from our desire to see you face-to-face on that final day." Weak is the effort of my heart, and cold my warmest thoughts; but when I see Thee as Thou art, I'll praise Thee as I ought." In Jesus name AMEN
