“Looking intently at his followers, Jesus began his sermon. “How enriched you become when you are poor, for you will experience the reality of God’s kingdom realm. “How filled you become when you are consumed with hunger and desire, for you will be completely satisfied. “How content you become when you weep with complete brokenness, for you will laugh with unrestrained joy. “How favored you become when you are hated, excommunicated, or slandered, or when your name is spoken of as evil because of your love for me, the Son of Man. “I promise you that as you experience these things, you will celebrate and dance with overflowing joy. And the heavenly reward of your faith will be abundant, because you are being treated the same way as your forefathers the prophets.” Luke 6:20-23 TPT

Jesus:
When you can see you’re poverty
Really know that all you need is Me
There you will find My Kingdom’s provision
And receive all the glory of heaven

When your hunger and desire
Is not fulfilled with this world’s power
But leads you to call out to Me
I will fill you, be all you need

When you weep in brokenness
I will not leave you in distress
Your life’s broken pieces I will restore
To a laughter filled vessel overflowing with joy

When you are hated, slandered or rejected
Because your love for Me has been detected
I will bring you to My celebration
Where you can dance with joy, have rewards abundant

All of this life’s trials and needs
Are there to help you find life in Me
To know Our joy filled union eternally
And live in My Kingdom’s fullness and Glory

“Listen to my testimony: I cried to God in my distress and he answered me. He freed me from all my fears! Gaze upon him, join your life with his, and joy will come. Your faces will glisten with glory. You’ll never wear that shame-face again. Drink deeply of the pleasures of this God. Experience for yourself the joyous mercies he gives to all who turn to hide themselves in him.” Psalms 34:4-5, 8 TPT

“The Lord alone is our radiant hope and we trust in him with all our hearts. His wrap-around presence will strengthen us. As we trust, we rejoice with an uncontained joy flowing from Yahweh!” Psalms 33:20-21 TPT

Lord you are my radiant hope
I trust in You with all my heart

You wrap me in your Presence
I am surrounded by your love
You are with me day and night
You are my hiding place, my might.

Lord you are my radiant hope
I trust in You with all my heart

Your Presence strengthens me
So I can stand against my foes
You are my victory
As your essence in me flows

Lord you are my radiant hope
I trust in You with all my heart

As I learn to trust in You
Learn to rest in your Presence
And abide in Your embrace
Your joy becomes my essence

Lord you are my radiant hope

Flows freely into me
Becoming my joy and my passion

Lord you are my radiant hope

“Then he broke through and transformed all my wailing into a whirling dance of ecstatic praise! He has torn the veil and lifted from me the sad heaviness of mourning. He wrapped me in the glory garments of gladness. How could I be silent when it’s time to praise you? Now my heart sings out loud, bursting with joy— a bliss inside that keeps me singing, “I can never thank you enough!”” Psalms 30:11-12 TPT

In Your Presence Lord
Sadness cannot linger
Grief loses it’s hold
For Your Glory is greater
For

You wrap me in Your Glory
Your garment of gladness
In Your Presence is pure joy
And with praise I embrace it!

There are many ways
In which this world brings me sorrow
Man’s inhumanity to man
Cast’s a gloomy shadow
But

You wrap me in Your Glory
Your garment of gladness
In Your Presence is pure joy
And with praise I embrace it!

There are days of grief
Where sorrow could overwhelm me
Friends or family lost
Dreams and hopes come to zero
But

You wrap me in Your Glory
Your garment of gladness
In Your Presence is pure joy
And with praise I embrace it!

There are days of sickness
Where I cannot see the light
My hope for tomorrow
Obscured in the fight
But

You wrap me in Your Glory
Your garment of gladness
In Your Presence is pure joy
And with praise I embrace it!

In all of my troubles
Your Presence never leaves me
You are my hiding place
Where I find hope and healing
For

You wrap me in Your Glory
Your garment of gladness
In Your Presence is pure joy
And with praise I embrace it!

I want to take this gift
Of Your glory and gladness
And live in it always
Rejoicing in Your Presence
For

You wrap me in Your Glory
Your garment of gladness
In Your Presence is pure joy
And with praise I embrace it!

I can never thank You
Thank You enough!
I can never thank You
Thank You enough!

“Because you are close to me and always available, my confidence will never be shaken, for I experience your wrap-around presence every moment. My heart and soul explode with joy—full of glory! Even my body will rest confident and secure. For you bring me a continual revelation of resurrection life, the path to the bliss that brings me face-to-face with you.” Psalms 16:8-9, 11 TPT

Jesus:
I Am here with you always
You’re in My wrap around Presence
Take My joy in our unity
And let it be your life’s essence

Receive the flow of revelation
Of My resurrection life
Filling your body
Raising you to My side

It was My delight in you
My joy in your presence
That kept me going through the cross
So we could be co-resurrected

It’s My desire and My delight
To raise you to My Kingdom’s height
To be one with you forever
My heart’s desire and My brother

Let the joy that I sing
Over you each day
Be your heart’s song
As you go on your way

With joy I embrace you
Fill your life with My grace
That you might see the love I have for you
Written on My face

Embrace My Glory that will fill
Your heart and soul with joy
As you experience My Presence
And rest confident, secure
