Psalm 150
“Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in His sanctuary: praise Him in the firmament of His power. Praise Him for His mighty acts: praise Him according to His excellent greatness. Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet: praise Him with the psaltery and harp. Praise Him with the timbrel and dance: praise Him with stringed instruments and organs. Praise Him upon the loud cymbals: praise Him upon the high sounding cymbals. Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord” (Psalm 150:1-6).
In this final Psalm we have brought before us God in His excellent greatness and majesty. This is of course always the great ultimate theme of worship and praise. God is to be praised in His sanctuary, in the firmament of His power, and for His mighty acts.
In a coming day He will have full worship and praise, both on earth and in Heaven. However He wants that worship and praise from redeemed hearts now. Today we are invited to, “come before His presence with singing … Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, and into His courts with praise” (Psalm 100:2, 4).
