God Says, "You Make Me Laugh"

 

God laughs when anyone plots against Him...

"The kings of the earth prepare for battle; 
the rulers plot together against the LORD and against his anointed one...
 
But the one who rules in heaven laughs." - Ps 2:2,4

God laughs when our enemies come against us...

"The wicked plot against the godly; they snarl at them in defiance.

But the Lord just laughs." - Ps 37:12-13

God laughs when governments oppose Him... 

"O LORD God of Heaven's Armies, the God of Israel, wake up and punish those hostile nations. Listen to the filth that comes from their mouths; their words cut like swords.

'After all, who can hear us?' they sneer.

But LORD, you laugh at them." - Ps 59:5,7-8

God laughs when sinners refuse to repent...

"I called you so often, but you wouldn't come. I reached out to you, but you paid no attention.

 You ignored my advice and rejected the correction I offered.

So I will laugh when you are in trouble!" - Pr 1:24-26

The rebellious world around us knows well how to make God laugh, but true disciples know so much more. We know that as we love and glorify Him, we discover how to make God so happy that He sings over us with joy...

"For the LORD your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.” -Zeph 3:17
