September 16: Make a Joyful Noise.
We Are God's Special Treasure.
Sing to the Lord, for He has done excellent things; this is known in all the earth. Cry out and shout, O inhabitant of Zion, for great is the Holy One of Israel in your midst!--Isaiah 12:5, 6, NKJV
WHEN THE LIGHT OF CHRIST is shining in the soul, the lips will be filled with praise and thanksgiving to God.--Thoughts From the Mount of Blessing, 80.
The gifts which the gospel offers are not to be secured by stealth or enjoyed in secret.
"Ye are My witnesses,saith the Lord,
That I am God." Isaiah 43:12
Our confession of His faithfulness is Heaven's chosen agency for revealing Christ to the world.--The Ministry of Healing, 100.
The daily blessings that we receive from the hand of God, and above all else the death of Jesus to bring happiness and heaven within our reach, should be a theme for constant gratitude. What compassion, what matchless love, has God shown to us, lost sinners, in connecting us with Himself, to be to Him a peculiar treasure! What a sacrifice has been made by our Redeemer, that we may be called children of God! We should praise God for the blessed hope held out before us in the great plan of redemption, we should praise Him for the heavenly inheritance and for His rich promises; praise Him that Jesus lives to intercede for us.--Patriarchs and Prophets, 289.
With such a...glorious hope, such a redemption that Christ has purchased for us by His own blood, shall we hold our peace? Shall we not praise God even with a loud voice, as did the disciples when Jesus rode into Jerusalem? Is not our prospect far more glorious than was theirs? Who dare them forbid us glorifying God, even with a loud voice, when we have such a hope, big with immortality, and full of glory?--Early Writings, 110.
"Now therefore, if you will indeed obey My voice and keep My covenant,
then you shall be a special treasure to Me above all people; for all the earth is Mine."
--Exodus 19:5, NKJV
"They will be my people," says the Lord of Heaven's Armies.
On the day when I act in judgment, they will be my own special treasure.
I will spare them as a father spares an obedient child."
--Malachi 3:17, NLT
