March 31, 2013 Praise the Lord

Read Psalm 150 Praise the Lord Ps 150:6 Praise the Lord! THIS IS an appropriate ending to Psalms and a great beginning for Resurrection Day. When all the talk is talked, all the questions are questioned, when all the wonder is wondered, praise the LORD! It is so good to praise the LORD. Think about the ways God has blessed you. The Psalms speak of God’s salvation, his creation, his strength, his power and his love. These are yours! Praise the Lord! The Psalms praise God for his great mercy, of how he defeats his enemies and protects his people. In the Psalms, we see God’s people in anguish when they don’t feel his presence. And we see God’s people in joy when he is near. In the Psalms we see God’s people passionately love him. And we see God passionately love his people. The Psalms point to Jesus, the one who passionately died for you and who has come out of the tomb to passionately say, “Come, follow me.” Yes, Praise the Lord! It’s True! God’s passion sent his Son to a cross; God’s passion welcomes you into his home.
