We Did It, is a song of triumph and celebration from Lecrae’s Church Clothes 4 mixtape.

The chorus, sung by PJ Morton, exudes a joy that one can only experience when their struggle is overcome through Christ:

They say that boy can’t take the pressure, but they see that I did it
Mama, I finally learned my lesson, now we counting them digits
And I came out from the bottom and won’t ever forget it
We did it, we did it, we did it, we did it
Hold on, my brothers, we got blessings on the way (we did it)
I told ’em clouds, “We gon’ need some brighter days” (we did it)
And I knew that He would always make a way
Tell ’em we did it, we did it, we did it, we did it, yeah (ay)


In Psalms 30:1-4,10-12, David rejoices and exalts God for His deliverance from many trials:

I will exalt you, Lord, for you lifted me out of the depths and did not let my enemies gloat over me.

Lord my God, I called to you for help, and you healed me.

You, Lord, brought me up from the realm of the dead; you spared me from going down to the pit.

Sing the praises of the Lord, you his faithful people;  praise his holy name.

Hear, Lord, and be merciful to me; Lord, be my help.”

You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, that my heart may sing your praises and not be silent.

Lord my God, I will praise you forever.


God’s favor brings a joy that is unmatched by anything in creation.

Prayer

God thank You for delivering me from the trials I have faced.

Thank You for the trials that I did not have to face.

May your favor rest upon my life and my family for all of eternity.

Action

We don’t celebrate God’s goodness enough.

This week take a moment and write down at least five things you are grateful that God has given to you or delivered you from.
