God is telling us that even though the days are evil and many
evils must still unfold he is in total control of all that is happening
He goes on to tell us to be strong and courages in all that is and to make merry songs in our spirits until the day is done when we shall see him coming in the clouds in great power and glory.

Psalm 118:17-18 David is conversing and praising God for handing over him from his enemies, and saving his existence. this is incredibly not Jesus conversing, because of the fact God did not chasten Jesus, as he grew to become into without sin. however Luke 24; 40 4 Jesus is conversing of the Psalms that do factor to him i.e. Psalm 31:5, 22:one million-2, 2:7-9.

This verse has to be taken in its context:

"Psa 118:19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will enter into them, I will give thanks unto Jehovah.
Psa 118:20 This is the gate of Jehovah; The righteous shall enter into it.
Psa 118:21 I will give thanks unto thee; for thou hast answered me, And art become my salvation.
Psa 118:22 The stone which the builders rejected Is become the head of the corner.
Psa 118:23 This is Jehovah's doing; It is marvellous in our eyes.
Psa 118:24 This is the day which Jehovah hath made; We will rejoice and be glad in it. "

What is it speaking about?

The new dispensation after the death of Jesus Christ. From then on, people (not just Jews) have direct and full access to the throne of God. That was the time (or day or age) that the psalmist prophesied of. It has absolutely nothing to do with 'Jewish' Sabbath (Saturday) nor 'Christian' Sabbath (Sunday).

Sounds to me it means what it says. I do not see anything to question about it. This song goes from one subject to another one, each is praising God for His works.

Ps 118:24 This is the day which the Lord has brought about; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

the theme starts from v.22 of Ps.118 viz.
the stone that the builders rejected as worthless
turned out to be the most important of all.
this was done by the Lord;
what a wonderful sight it is. v. 23
and then comes ur v. 24,
this is the day of the Lord's victory,
let us be happy, let us celebrate.

"This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will reguice and be glad in it." Psalm 118:24

The way to make every day important and meaningful it to accept it as a day from God, a day that he has made for us, to enjoy friendship with us and we should spend it enjoying his friendship with us. We should never let this thought get away from us.

"This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it." - Psalm 118:24 kjv.

why?

using the Bible itself as its own Divine commentary, we know why:

"I will rejoice and be glad in Your lovingkindness,

Because You have seen my affliction; You have known the troubles of my soul, - Psalm 31:7 nasb.

He (Jesus) is the chief top-stone in the corner, in whom the building is completed, and who must in all things have the pre-eminence, as the author and finisher of our faith. Thus highly has God exalted him, because he humbled himself; and we, in compliance with God’s design, must make him the foundation of our hope, the centre of our unity, and the end of our living. To me to live is Christ. The hand of God in all this: This is the Lord’s doing; it is from the Lord; it is with the Lord; it is the product of his counsel; it is his contrivance. Both the humiliation and the exaltation of the Lord Jesus were his work, Acts 2:23; 4:27, 28. He sent him, sealed him; his hand went with him throughout his whole undertaking, and from first to last he did his Father’s will; and this ought to be marvellous in our eyes. Christ’s name is Wonderful; and the redemption he wrought out is the most amazing of all God’s works of wonder; it is what the angels desire to look into, and will be admiring to eternity; much more ought we to admire it, who owe our all to it. Without controversy, great is the mystery of godliness. The joy wherewith it is entertained and the acclamations which attend this prediction. Let the day be solemnized to the honour of God with great joy (v. 24): This is the day the Lord has made. The whole time of the gospel-dispensation, that accepted time, that day of salvation, is what the Lord has made so; it is a continual feast, which ought to be kept with joy. Or it may very fitly be understood of the Christian sabbath, which we sanctify in remembrance of Christ’s resurrection, when the rejected stone began to be exalted; and so, (1.) Here is the doctrine of the Christian sabbath: It is the day which the Lord has made, has made remarkable, made holy, has distinguished from other days; he has made it for man: it is therefore called the Lord’s day, for it bears his image and superscription. (2.) The duty of the sabbath, the work of the day that is to be done in his day: We will rejoice and be glad in it, not only in the institution of the day, that there is such a day appointed, but in the occasion of it, Christ’s becoming the head of the corner. This we ought to rejoice in both as his honour and our advantage. Sabbath days must be rejoicing days, and then they are to us as the days of heaven. See what a good Master we serve, who, having instituted a day for his service, appoints it to be spent in holy joy. Let the exalted Redeemer be met, and attended, with joyful hosannas, v. 25, 26. (1.) Let him have the acclamations of the people, as is usual at the inauguration of a prince. Let every one of his loyal subjects shout for joy!!

"This is the day the LORD has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it."
It's an interesting quote for you to pick. It is true that the Lord created the heaven & the earth, and the day & the night. Whether we should rejoice in it or not is another thing entirely, but what the heck, why not

I think if I read or said that verse every morning when I woke up, the day would be better. Just be thankful for this very day , that you have been given another day to live, laugh and love those around you.
