Read Zephaniah chapter 3

VERSE:

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.

TRUTH:

As Zephaniah finishes out his prophecy, he reminds the people that God is with them. This is such great comfort in the midst of all the difficulties and trials that we go through. We can know that God is there with us and He is the Might One who saves us. No matter what we have done, if we will come to Him, He takes great delight in us. He looks to shower us with His love as He draws us closer to Himself and He rejoices over us with singing. I know that the very thought of God singing over me brings a feeling of peace in the midst of every circumstance. I know that I am His beloved and He is mine. His banner over me is love, just as it says in Song of Songs. Will we allow God to be the mighty warrior and to save us and rejoice over us in every situation?

RESPONSE:

Father, I know that You are my Mighty Warrior. I will trust in You to save me. Thank You for taking great delight in me, more than any other person will ever delight in me. I love that Your love is over me and that You will rejoice over me with singing. Thank You for Your comfort and Your guidance as I go through the difficult times in my life. I will rest in Your love, delight, and joy.
