“…He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. 3And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD….” – Psalm 40:2-3 (KJV)
When we were saved, God picked us up from the life we once knew, a life of chaos and destruction. He has pulled us out of the miry clay we were drowning in and set our feet on solid ground. The word “Miry” describes anything that may bog you down in your walk with Him. And when God saved us, He put a new song in our mouths. It’s a song of praise, hope and our testimony to the goodness of God. We are witnesses of God’s goodness and as we do that, others can see the transformation that’s happened inside of us, and so, those around us can’t deny the reality of our Lord.
We have so much to praise God for. When we think back to the life we had before we received Christ as our Savior, how can we not be grateful that He saved us and delivered us from the hopelessness we walked in. This is the new song we have on our lips that speaks of hope, love, deliverance, life, adoration and God’s grace, mercy and goodness!
Praise the Lord for the new song God has given us, because it testifies of His amazing love and grace!
