The One Who Rejoices Over You With Shouts of Joy!


The LORD your God is in your midst,
A Warrior who saves.
He will rejoice over you with joy;
He will be quiet in His love [making no mention of your past sins],
He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.

—Zephaniah 3:17 (AMP)


O LORD My God,


Make me always conscious of Your ever-abiding Presence with me—that I would honor that Presence by my faithful obedience to Your Word and Your Spirit.  And help me to believe, and never forget, that it is You who rejoices over me with shouts of joy!


Thank You that You always remain with me, that You never leave my side, but continue in Your unrelenting pursuit to have all of my heart—even when I yield to the temptation to wander from You, to follow after my own rebellious desires.

Thank You that You are the Mighty and Victorious Warrior who saves me—my Rescuer, my Redeemer, my Defender, and my Guardian—both now and forevermore!

Thank You for drawing me into the quietness of Your love—a place where the power of Your love has separated me from all my sins, a place where they are remembered against me no more, and I am seen as righteous in Your eyes.

Thank You for being the One who rejoices greatly over me—with thundering shouts of joy—because You have set Your affection on me, and take great delight in calling me Your own.


Make me always conscious of Your ever-abiding Presence with me—that I would honor that Presence by my faithful obedience to Your Word and Your Spirit.  And help me to believe, and never forget, that it is You who rejoices over me with shouts of joy!


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
