오늘의 묵상
다윗은 언약궤가 돌아오던 날 기쁨으로 가득차 기뻐 뛰며 춤을 추었는데, 이로 인해 비웃음을 샀습니다. 하지만, 그런 비난에 아랑곳하지 않았습니다. 이 날은 위대한 날이었습니다. 그의 하나님은 오직 위대하고 진실한 하나님이셨습니다. 그는 주님 앞에서 기뻐하며 뛸 것입니다!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
David's wife, Michal, ridiculed her husband, the King, for his "undignified" exuberance as he rejoiced and danced before the Ark of the Covenant as it returned. Apparently, David wasn't kingly enough for Michal. David refused, however, to be deterred by her criticism. The ark's return was a reason for celebration. His God was the only true and living God. His God had given him victory after victory over dangerous foes. His God had preserved his people through hardships and difficulties over a long history of challenges, oppression, wandering, and battling. In his joyous delight, David was determined to celebrate before the Lord with a full heart, a dancing body, and without concern for his position in Israel. God had brought this day of deliverance, so David declared, "I will celebrate before the Lord." Shouldn't we?

My Prayer...
Lord God Almighty, you are full of grace and mercy, awesome in power and holiness; you are my joy, my hope, and my future. I rejoice in you as the only One and the only thing worthy of all glory, honor, and praise. I will celebrate you, O Lord, for you alone are worthy of my praise! In Jesus' name, I cry, Hallelujah, and amen.
