Praise the Lord!

Psalm 150                                                             Praise the Lord!

“Hallelujah!

Praise God in His holy house of worship, praise him under the open skies;

Praise him for his acts of power, praise him for his magnificent greatness;

Praise with a blast on the trumpet, praise by strumming soft strings;

Praise him with castanets and dance, praise him with banjo and flute;

Praise him with cymbals and a big bass drum, praise him with fiddles and mandolin.

Let every living, breathing creature praise God!

Hallelujah!” (MSG)

 

The Psalmist certainly got it right.  Praise the Lord—everywhere in every way!  “Praise the Lord” are words found frequently in the Psalms.  Often David ends up praising the Lord after the beginning of the Psalm is full of complaints.  Maybe that’s why God said that David was a man after His heart.  He always came back to trusting and praising God.

 

“Praise the Lord” is appropriate any time, but especially during this time of year when we commemorate the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus!  It is to His glory and our salvation that we can say, “Thank you, Jesus” and “Praise the Lord.”  Because of Jesus, we are assured of an eternity with Him.  I’ll say it again, PRAISE THE LORD!
