Mighty Warrior Who Sings

Zephaniah 1-3; John 9 

“The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.”

Zephaniah 3:17

What an amazing description of God is given in this prophetic word to us. God is with us in Christ and now within us through the Holy Spirit. He is mighty to save, or literally, he is a mighty warrior.

 “…there is no other name under heaven, given to men by which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12) 

The saving power of God’s nature is complemented by his tender love. He delights in his family. He quiets us with his love, like a mother rocking and singing to her children. He rejoices over us with singing, like a Dad that doesn’t care what anyone else thinks. A mighty warrior who saves us and a tender loving father who rejoices over us -this is our God!

In what ways do we need to experience him today?

“Lord God, I thank you for your saving power and tender love toward me.”
