“But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; With favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.”
Psalm 5:11-12 KJV
The psalmist David had a simple way of being in relationship with YHWH. He just worshipped and expressed himself from his heart and speaking with his mouth to let them all be glad, those who turn aside to hide themselves in God. May they keep shouting for joy forever! He asks God to overshadow such people in His presence as they sing and rejoice. Then every lover of God’s Name will burst forth with endless joy. David tells YHWH how wonderfully He blesses the righteous. God’s favour wraps around each one and covers them under His canopy of kindness and joy. Through the Lord Jesus Christ, we who are not Jews, can worship God and be joyful in the midst of evil around us. This is the inheritance of those who are righteous by the Blood of the Lamb and who put their trust in Christ and rejoice. Let’s raise a Hallelujah to the Lamb!
