Heavenly Symphony

Well, I had something completely different in mind to share today until I spotted the Bible verse of the day referenced on my blogsite ~ Zephaniah 3:17. Twice in as many days, this verse has been placed before me. So I feel compelled to put my own thoughts on the backburner and proceed with a few reflections based on these inspired words taken from the New Life Version.

"The Lord your God is with you,
a Powerful One who wins the battle.
He will have much joy over you.
With His love He will give you new life.
He will have joy over you with loud singing."

Present... Powerful... Pleasureful... Productive... Master Performer ~ what a Heavenly Symphony rings within us as we consider the varied ways God delights to respond in the lives of His people!

A symphony is an extended composition that usually contains four movements. Consider then, that a Heavenly Symphony is God's eternal work of grace in us as we journey through the four Seasons ~ summer, autumn, winter and spring ~ of Life. Music inspires people in many different ways and often our favourites vary depending on our circumstances of life. For the moment, God's melody of healing and hope is the song we personally need to hear. Praise God, the chords are ringing in our hearts with positive victory and strong faith knowing that He is more than able.

In what movement of God's Heavenly Symphony is the Holy Spirit performing in your life today? What great work is He accomplishing that rings out with holy delight?
