"Greeting in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on 19 July 2011"
Today's Blog Title: "God, the Great King"
Today's Scripture Reading: Psalm 95:1-11
Today's Key Verse: Psalm 95:1-3 "Oh come, let us sing to the Lord! Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving; Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms. For the Lord is the great God, and the great King above all gods."
Psalm 95 places allot of emphasis on the worship of God as the great King, but is also is a royal psalm because of how it acknowledges Him as the great King. The change of voice in verse 7 may well indicate that this psalm was sung in two ways.
First the people offered a hymn that served as a call to worship and prayer. Second the priest or prophet answers with a warning that the worshipers must not fall prey to hardness of heart as did their ancestors.
The psalmist calls us to acknowledge the Lord as the "great God" above all others and to worship Him. We as Christians worship by hearing and responding obediently to His voice. Non reponse to His voice is to lose our opportunity for rest.
This psalm has three parts: (1) the worship of God in a mood of celebration (verses 1-5); (2) the worship of God in a contemplative mood (verses 6,7); (3) the worship of God in obedience (verses 8-11).
Today's Hymn: "Trust and Obey"
When we walk with the Lord in the light of His Word, what a glory he sheds on our way!
When we do His good will, He abides with us still, and with all who will trust and obey
Trust and obey, for there's no other way, to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey
Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, how grateful we are of your constant love and mercy on us. How thankful we are that we serve the One True and Living God, and how thankful we are that because of Your Son Jesus Christ we can come boldly before you in prayer and supplication. May our faith and trust in You stand firm in the midst of our trials, and tribulations, and may we always give You the Praise and the Glory.
Amen
