Halleluyah ~

There is a beautiful Hebrew word that has been translated into many languages and is a lovely expression suitable for joyous worship.

That word is halleluyah!!!

"Behold God is My salvation ... I will trust and not be afraid; for YAH, the LORD, is my strength and song, He also has become my salvation." Isaiah 12:2

The shorter form of the Lords Holy Name is 'Yahweh' or 'Jehovah' ...

'Halleluyah' translates ... 'praise the Lord' and literally means ...
'you must all praise YAH!'

Looking closer within these words we see our Messiah's lovely name and it gives us great joy to praise Him with our 'halleluyahs.'

So to express a joyful praise in our everyday living ... we may speak, halleluyah for our blessings as we go about our business outside the home. Even while shopping as we come upon a sale!
