Shout For 'JOY' To The LORD!

"Shout For 'JOY' to the LORD, all the earth."
Psalms 100:1

Today, being Monday, the first busy day of your week, we pray that you get your 'JOY' ON and praise the LORD with us, the whole week long!

"A psalm. For giving thanks.  Shout For 'JOY' to the LORD"  Giving thanks to the LORD includes Shouting for 'JOY'.  This is not a comfortable idea for many Followers of JESUS but none the less, there are times when Shouting for 'JOY' is the only true form of giving thanks to HIM for HIS bountiful blessings in your life.

There are many stories on the Mission Fields of the world how when great numbers of people rushed forward in a Gospel Meeting to receive JESUS as their personal SAVIOR that a Shouting for 'JOY' began without prompting and numerous miracles took place in the lives of people who were not ashamed or embarrassed to express radical, thankful, 'JOY' before the LORD.

You do not have to live in far off lands to experience and express Shouting for 'JOY' to the LORD for all HIS goodness and love for you.  You can practice this form of thanksgiving in your own home and even in your Church.  Before dismissing Shouting for 'JOY' to the LORD, as something that only people from fall off lands do, remember that this 'JOY' verse ends with these words; "all the earth."  That includes you!

It is probably not a great idea to walk through a Grocery Store Shouting for 'JOY' anymore than doing so while shopping at the local Mall. The idea is to begin today in your own private prayer closet by speaking HIS praises and just naturally lift your voice louder and louder until you are Shouting for 'JOY' for all the good things your HEAVENLY FATHER has done, and is doing for you.  Today and everyday, live your life in the 'JOY' of the LORD!
