I will praise You with songs of joy. (Psalm 63:3-5)..

2 Chronicles 30:10 You wonder how these people could laugh at Hezekiah’s message of forgiveness and reconciliation. But don’t you see it every day, people laughing at God while the enemy plunders their families and homes? Let us rise up today and intercede for our nation to return to the Lord.
2 Chronicles 30:18-20 Are you one those who believe you have to clean up your act before you can come to God? That’s not God’s way. He says “Come.” Then He’ll heal you. Thank God for loving you and calling you even in your sin.
2 Chronicles 30:22 NLT “Hezekiah encouraged the Levites for the skill they displayed as they served the Lord. So for seven days the celebration continued.

Ask the Lord to show you who you can encourage today in their service to the Lord.
