“For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning.”
Psalm 30:5 KJV
David wrote this psalm for the feast of dedication, “I’ve learned that His anger lasts for a moment, but His loving favor lasts a lifetime! We may weep through the night, but at daybreak it will turn into shouts of ecstatic joy.” The wrath in God’s anger was poured out on Jesus when He hung on the Cross taking the punishment for the sin of all humanity. The shouts of ecstatic joy came in the morning when resurrection life was gifted to mankind as Jesus conquered death and rose again. It is God’s will, His promise, His covenant with us for this is the way God loved the world—He gave His only, unique Son as a gift. So now everyone who believes in Him will never perish but experience everlasting life. What an awesome gift and what an awesome Gospel. Amen!
