Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
I needed some joy today in my outlook, so I scrolled through Spotify and found The Messiah done by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Then I searched YouTube and found a ton of videos. This production is more than a Christmas program. It’s glory come down to earth.
I listened, and The Messiah lifted my spirits. Of course, when I got to the “Hallelujah Chorus,” I started to cry.
That’s what happens to me when the Holy Spirit falls on me. I cry.
Tears of joy, gratefulness, humility, conviction, calling. All the things that remind me who I am and who God is.
How great and mighty God is!
Take a listen to this song and pray a little prayer of praise.
(I picked their latest world-encompassing virtual version. How cool is that?)
We belong to a victorious God!
Lord God,
You are Wonderful!
You’re a Mighty God,
an Everlasting Father,
the Prince of Peace!
You are not swayed by the chaos of this world
or worried about the choices I made in my life.
You lead me,
comfort me,
guide me,
and wait me out when I stray.
You never leave.
You never panic.
You are sure, steadfast, unchanging.
I praise you, God!
I don’t understand you,
but I’m thankful for you!
In Jesus’ powerful name,
Amen.
