He rejoices over us!

Exuberant Joy
Isaiah 65:18,19   “But be ye glad and rejoice forever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.  And I will rejoice in Jerusalem and joy in my people.”

Rejoice here is the Hebrew word Giyl which means to dance with great exuberance, leaping and jumping for joy.

Zephaniah 3:17.  “He will rejoice over thee with joy…….He will joy over thee with singing. This is an expression of such joy that it reaches the point of dancing in a whirlwind, leaping and springing about.

Wow!  God gets that excited about you and me.  I am glad to say that there are people at Redeemer Fellowship Church who do display that king of joy when praising God.  Be encouraged by Isaiah’s prophecy that God created us so He could rejoice in us. He is a joy to us; we are a joy to Him!
