Saturday Psalm and Praise - Psalm 30

I like to thank Miss Jocelyn from A Pondering Heart for inviting me to do this. And I thought my first Saturday Psalm and Praise will be Psalm 30. This Psalm is dear to me because it helps me understand that even though we are going through a certain situation or in help to make a life-turning decision, God is right there and in spite of, we have to be determine to give Him praise. This psalm help me realize that whatever storm we are going through.......it's only for a moment....a season.

Even though we may be feeling down in the dumps, we must gather up enough strength to praise the Lord and encourage others to praise Him. When you're down or in need of guidance, it's important to praise God because praising God gives you strength to endure and a clear ear to hear His voice. It also prepare you for God's answer to your prayers, which will transform, restore, and renew you in every way that's possible. So please read with an open heart. I also highlighted the verses that are near and dear to my heart.

Psalm 30

1) I WILL extol You, O LORD, for You have lifted me up,
And have not let my foes rejoice over me.

2) O LORD my God, I cried out to You,
And You healed me.

3) O LORD, You brought my soul up from the grave;
You have kept me alive, that I should not go down to the pit.

4) Sing praise to the LORD, you saints of His,
And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.

5) For His anger is but for a moment,
His favor is for life;
Weeping may endure for a night,
But joy comes in the morning.

6) Now in my prosperity I said,
"I shall never be moved."

7) LORD, by Your favor You have made my mountain stand strong;
You hid Your face, and I was troubled.

8) I cried out to You, O LORD;
And to the LORD I made supplication:

9) "What profit is there in my blood,
When I go down to the pit?
Will the dust praise You?
Will it declare Your truth?

10) Hear, O LORD, and have mercy on me;
LORD, be my helper!"

11) You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;
You have put off my sackcloth and clothed me with gladness,

12) To the end that my glory may sing praise to You and not be silent.
O LORD my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
