In our 5:00 a.m. prayer time this morning at the church facility we looked at Psalm 95 and did some shouting.
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. In His hand are the deep places of the earth; The heights of the hills are His also. The sea is His, for He made it; And His hands formed the dry land. Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker. For He is our God, And we are the people of His pasture, And the sheep of His hand. Today, if you will hear His voice: "Do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, As in the day of trial in the wilderness, When your fathers tested Me; They tried Me, though they saw My work. For forty years I was grieved with that generation, And said, 'It is a people who go astray in their hearts, And they do not know My ways.' So I swore in My wrath, 'They shall not enter My rest.' "
(Psa 95:1-11)
We do a good expressing our excitement when watching our kids or favorite team play sports, but how good a job do we do in expressing our excitement about how great God is? The Psalmist says that we are to SHOUT! The Hebrew word here can indicate a shout of warning, joy, or triumph.
So how about trying a little shouting for the Lord sometime today? Go ahead, make that joyful noise!
Yours in Him,
Pastor B.
