PSALM 30

11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;

12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O Lord my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.

DANCING WITH DELIGHT

Don’t you just love Psalms? I know that I do!

Each psalm speaks of the psalmist’s deep personal experience of every emotion known to man.. from depression to joy. You can find a psalm for every situation.

I just love what David says in this wonderful ending to his psalm. You remember that David danced with all his might, before the ark, wearing just an Ephod in 2 Samuel 6:14.

 Aren’t these verses the most wonderful picture of Salvation? This is what God has done for us.

God has turned our mourning into dancing, He has put off our sackcloth and now we are clothed with gladness. You see when we come to Christ in repentance and faith, we are turned upside down and inside out. We are clothed in the pure white righteousness of Christ, we have on his robe of righteousness, all our righteousness is dirty rags and we exchange those for a pure white robe.

We have to share this privilege with others, let us make sure that we are never silent about sharing this wonderful truth. Lets also give thanks to God at all times for doing these great things in our lives.

We can dance with delight only because of the great sacrifice of Christ on the cross.. let’s sing hallelujah and let the world know what he has done for us.

Are you dancing with delight because of what Christ has done for you?

God bless you
