Hi Brian!

The word for this week is "shout". We'll be looking at these verses:


Ps 5:11 But let all those who take refuge and put their trust in You rejoice; let them ever sing and shout for joy, because You make a covering over them and defend them; let those also who love Your name be joyful in You and be in high spirits. AMP

Ps 32:11 Be glad in the Lord and rejoice, you [uncompromisingly] righteous [you who are upright and in right standing with Him]; shout for joy, all you upright in heart! AMP

Ps 35:27 Let those who favor my righteous cause and have pleasure in my uprightness shout for joy and be glad and say continually, Let the Lord be magnified, Who takes pleasure in the prosperity of His servant. AMP

This is the Hebrew word "ranan". Strong's Concordance says: to emit a stridulous sound; to shout usually for joy. Brown-Driver-Briggs Hebrew Lexicon says: to be overcome, to cry out, to give a ringing cry. 

Another Hebrew word translated "shout" is found in Psalm 47:1:

Ps 47:1 O CLAP your hands, all you peoples! Shout to God with the voice of triumph and songs of joy! AMP

This is the Hebrew word "ruwa`". Strong's Concordance says: to split the ears (with sound). Whichever Hebrew word we use, it will still be LOUD! God is not timid and we shouldn't be either! Here is Hillsong Kids with "Shout Your Fame":



Love and Shalom from the Swoveys!
