Power of God's Word - Joy

Wednesday: March 17,2010
Isaiah 55:12
For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace; the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
The verse before this says that the Word of God will accomplish the purpose for which God has sent His word and will give prosperity down the line of the purpose for which it was sent. The Word of the LORD is so glorious and His promises are so wonderful that all nature will rejoice with singing and clapping.
Imagine the sound of that resounding song of praise; some might think that it was thunder. Imagine what it would be like if all nature and all humankind would shout and sing; clap and dance in joyful praise and thanksgiving to the LORD. Oh what a glorious day! Oh what a glorious sound!
Do we have to wait for that day? I feel that outburst of exaltation every time I read the Word of the LORD. JESUS speaks in every page and every verse. His great love has caused His Word to reach to the ends of the earth. We can receive His love daily and we can feel the great joy that unfolds by reading His Word.
A friend of mine used to say: "The Bible is GOD'S Love letter to humanity. I read His love letter every day." John 15:13 says: Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. JESUS gave His life for us out of great love, all we have to do is reach out and receive Him.
There is such power in the Word of the LORD that all nature sings and claps with joy.
Rejoice in the Lord all ye people; shout with joy to the GOD of our salvation
