Psalms 124, 125, 126, 127, & 128 are Psalms of song and praise to the Lord as they ascend to Jerusalem and gather together to worship the Lord in love and unity. No matter what challenges we may face, we turn to the Lord and trust His mighty hand and His victorious deliverance. God wants to be invited into the battles we face in life. When we humble ourselves, repent, and let God in to lead and guide us - He shows up in big ways. There is joy that is found in the freedom God brings us to. While Satan tries to destroy us and bring us to our worst by separating us from faith in God, God wants to bring us to our very best in Him and experience His goodness. We choose the road we take. We can choose a heart of humble gratitude in every season and glorify God in how we live out every day. We can choose to humbly reflect a heart of gratitude and joyfully praise the Lord no matter what circumstances we may be facing. He is in it with us if we let Him be and He is the One who carries us to victory. Keep standing firm in faith, keep praying, keep hoping, keep trusting God in "no matter what", "even if" faith, and keep joyfully clinging to Jesus with all your guts and every last exhale - heart and soul.
