The Good News: A Shout of Joy Comes in the Morning!

Psalm 30

New American Standard Bible

Thanksgiving for Rescue from Death.

A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House. A Psalm of David.
30 I will exalt You, Lord, for You have lifted me up,
And have not let my enemies rejoice over me.
2 Lord my God,
I cried to You for help, and You healed me.
3 Lord, You have brought up my soul from Sheol;
You have kept me alive, that I would not go down to the pit.
4 Sing praise to the Lord, you His godly ones,
And praise the mention of His holiness.
5 For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for a lifetime;
Weeping may last for the night,
But a shout of joy comes in the morning.

6 Now as for me, I said in my prosperity,
“I will never be moved.”
7 Lord, by Your favor You have made my mountain to stand strong;
You hid Your face, I was dismayed.
8 To You, Lord, I called,
And to the Lord I pleaded for compassion:
9 “What gain is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your faithfulness?

10 “Hear, Lord, and be gracious to me;
Lord, be my helper.”
11 You have turned my mourning into dancing for me;
You have untied my sackcloth and encircled me with joy,
12 That my soul may sing praise to You and not be silent.
Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.

Father God, Your Mighty Right Arm shimmers with Power as You show us Your Works of Deliverance.  Show us Your Face, Father, that we may Love like Jesus. Amen!
