Psalms 134, 146 - 150 (15th June) - Sky

All these Psalms have 1 similarity
All Praises to the same GOD

Psalm 134
A short song asking the servants to lift their heads praising the Lord. No one praise with a bowed head

Psalm 146
This praise shows that our hope, help, freedom and sustenance are all from the Lord. As we praise him with all our life, He upholds the oppressed, lifts up the humbled and frustrates the way of the wicked.

Won’t that just bring you a smile?

Psalm 147
Our words could barely describe His greatness. Half of this psalm uses nature to emphasize the Lord’s power. Covers the sky with clouds, supplies the earth with rain, makes the grass grow, stirs up breezes and make water flow.

The psalm ended by boasting on the fact that Jerusalem was the only nation that the law and His Word is known. Israelites were privileged people and so are we.

For Christ completed the Law and enabled us to come before God with our rags.

Psalm 148
How do things praise GOD? Asking the sun, moon, stars, and waters all to praise him?

These images personified to paint a picture of God’s control over all creation. All of creation gives it praise to God by being what has made it to be for
(V5 for he commanded and they were created)

Praise Him for his authority is final. So is His love, promises and Son.

Psalm 149
This psalm has a verse which caught me.

V6 May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double edged sword in their hands.

Josh once shared; our praise can act as a weapon against the Evil One. So why should we hold back dancing, singing, moving, expressing our feelings of joy, thankfulness and praise to our beloved GOD.

Psalm 150
We praise him for his acts of power, his surpassing greatness. Praise him with everything we are and have. Not only with all the instruments but with our hearts. For God is worthy of the best we can offer in our worship, regardless of our abilities and limitations.

Let everything that has breath praise GOD. Nice way to end a Praise don’t you think?
