The Power of "Amen": Affirming Truth and Acceptance
Tonight at the Seder, Hashem told us exactly what He wants us to do to give Him hakarat hatov for the wonders and miracles that He performed for us in taking us out of Mitzrayim. He wants us to spend this night telling over everything that He did then. He wants us to feel so much gratitude that the praises are freely flowing from our mouths. The Zohar HaKadosh writes about this night, that if a person is truly happy to say over the Sipur Yetziat Mitzrayim, he will be invited to rejoice with the Shechina HaKedosha in Olam HaBa.
Someone who is happy doing this mitzvah is considered a person who is happy with Hashem and merits that Hashem personally comes to help him.
Hashem takes so much delight in hearing us relate this story. So many mitzvot that we have are all just a zecher l’Yetziyat Mitzrayim. Tonight we have the mitzvah of actually being מספר יציאת מצרים.
Hashem gets so excited, kavayachol. It says that He gathers all of the angels together and He tells them, go listen to the words that His children are saying about Him. The Zohar mentions the word joy over and over in just a few lines. All of the segulot come to a person if he does this mitzvah with joy.
We should feel as if there are angels surrounding our tables who were sent to listen to every word we say. They were sent by Hashem who is taking so much delight in everything we say. When the angels hear about our praises, they go back up to Hashem and thank and praise Him for the miracles He did for us. And this gives Hashem, kavayachol, so much strength.
Let us utilize it to ask our Father on this night to redeem us and bring an end to this long galut. May we be zocheh to fulfill all of the mitzvot of the night the way Hashem wants us to and bring so much joy to the heavens and arouse our Father to bring the Geulah Shelema. Amen.
Chag kasher v'sameach!
