Prayer - Hearts Full of Joy

 JOY.

Heavenly Father, You bring us joy.  Joyfully we clap our hands and sing Your praise, oh Most High.  Our great King in control of the earth and its peoples.

The Sons of Korah had it right.  They encouraged,

"Clap your hands, all you nations; shout to God with cries of joy" (Psalm 47:1).

So if we make a noisy joyful noise to You in the Name of Jesus; we wish to make You full of joy too.

Like children opening gifts and parents witnessing their joy and delight; it warms their hearts too, especially when those children say, "Thank-you, Dad and Mom!"

Thank-You, Father God!

Thank-You, Jesus!

Thank-You for the gift of salvation You brought us.  You are our inheritance.  We belong to You. 

We sing "Hallelujah, praise the Lord like joy bells ringing.  We love You, LORD because You first loved us.  Therefore, we clap our hands and joyfully sing, Jesus loves me, with hearts full of joy.

We thank-You in Jesus Name.
