Decades of Delight

Scripture:

“We’ve been overwhelmed with grief; come now and overwhelm us with gladness. Replace our years of trouble with decades of delight.”
‭‭Psalms‬ ‭90:15‬ ‭TPT‬‬

Observation:

The Psalmist here speaks honestly to the Lord.  He doesn’t fake it, but really says he is overwhelmed with grief and that he wants God to overwhelm him with gladness.  He asks God to replace the years of trouble with decades of delight.

Application:

We need to understand that it is okay to be honest with God.  When things have gone bad, we should be honest like the Psalmist.  It’s also okay to ask for the day of God’s blessing on our lives.  I want God to replace years of trouble with decades of delight.

Prayer:

Father, thank You for your prophetic words yesterday about not having to struggle any more.  Thank You for turning the tide for my life and my church.  You are incredible!  I say with the Psalmist this morning, overwhelm us with gladness and replace our year of trouble and work with decades of delight and joy.

Yours,
Jeff
