A Happy Father
The LORD your God is in your midst, A victorious warrior. He will exult over you with joy, He will be quiet in His love, He will rejoice over you with shouts of joy.
ZEPHANIAH 3.17
Set your mind on the great love that your Father has for you and you’ll see it make a huge difference in your daily perspective. God isn’t watching your activity from a distance. He is “in your midst” in the daily activity of your life. He stands ready to fight for you because of your great value to Him.
When Zephaniah said that God “will rejoice over you,” He was suggesting that God literally dances with joy when He sees you. The Hebrew word for rejoice literally means “to twirl with delight.” He sings songs of joy when He considers the union you and He share together.
Your feelings may not confirm the reality of this biblical truth, but choose now not to allow your feelings to drive your beliefs. Believe what He has said about you, and stand in faith on that belief every day. As you renew your mind to the truth of how God feels toward you, it will begin to transform your outlook on every detail of your life.
