The Lord is my...song Psalms 118:14

I will sing of the Lord

I will sing unto the Lord

 When we sing unto the Lord, this is knowing and worshipping God. When the Israelites came through the battle (O.T.) they sang. I will delight myself in the Lord. To know Him and praise Him becomes the sweetest, fullest, freshest, and gladdest time of our hearts when we sing of Him. When you have learned this secret of worship, you have fetched Heaven down to earth. We have no need to envy the angels, when we can sing a song that not even the angels can sing. The song of the "redeemed" the angels cannot sing, being created beings they know nothing about the redeeming power of the love of Jesus Christ. There is no joy to our inner most being singing songs the world sings. One said, I will sing with the spirit and with the understanding also.1 Corinthians 14:15. Nothing sweeter could ever come from our lips, when we can sing in the spirit and with the understanding also. Singing a song about Jesus blocks out the negative things that come our way. Joy and worry cannot both occupy the heart at the same time. Begin today singing songs that cheer your heart. This will drive the blues away. A merry, joyful heart doeth good like a medicine. Proverbs 17:22
