Summary: You have got a real reason to praise God don't ever let anybody tell you otherwise because God is something to get excited about.
As a matter of fact I don't know about you but this morning I have one of those "Can't Stop Praising His Name Attitudes"
When I think about the sound of the hammer striking the nails that were driven into the hands and feet of Jesus. I Can't Stop Praising His Name!
When I think about the sound of Jesus’ last words on the Cross when he shouted, “It is finished”. I Can't Stop Praising His Name!
When I think about the sound of the Holy Spirit as He entered in the Upper Room on the Day of Pentecost and filled those who were in that room with the Holy Ghost! I Can't Stop Praising His Name!
Our text say's, "Blessed are those people who know the joyful sound".
When I think about sound of perfect peace in the midst of my storms. I Can't Stop Praising His Name!
The Joyful Sound is the sound of the Gospel the Good News that proclaims the Power of God unto Salvation. It is this Joyful Sound that causes rejoicing in our sanctified souls.
The Joyful Sound is the fact of knowing that Jesus Christ was triumphant when He gained victory over death, hell, and the grave!
The Joyful Sound is the sound of victory after the long struggle He endured in overcoming the world and making a show of it openly, destroying the power of death and putting every enemy of our soul under His feet once and for all time.
Conclusion:
The Bible say's, in Psalms 107:8 and 9
Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
We have all heard the Joyful Sound:Jesus Saves! Jesus Saves!
Spread the tidings all around: Jesus Saves! Jesus Saves!
To the Utmost Jesus Saves
He will pick you up and turn you around. Hallelujah Jesus Saves!
You may be a liar, maybe even a cheater, You may be a back biter, maybe even a deciever.
Jesus saves, Jesus saves.
Bear the news to every land, climb the steeps and cross the waves; Onward! is our Lord's command; Jesus Saves! Jesus Saves!
The gospel is a joyful sound: Good tidings. It is a joyful sound to those who know it, hear it, believe it, love it, obey it. They to whom it is a joyful sound are blessed. They walk, Oh Lord in the light of Your countenance.
