Praise God for his powerful deeds.
Praise the Lord. How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and fitting to praise him! Ps 147:1
This is another psalm of praise. Some think it was penned after the return of the Jews from their captivity. Great is our Lord and he is mighty in power; his understanding has no limit.
Psalm 147 tells us something about God’s love and his power.
There are three parts in this psalm:
1. Vs 1-6
God’s power in Israel and Babylon and in the skies above;
2. Vs 7-11
God’s power on the earth in the physical;
3. Vs 12-20
God’s power in providing his people what they need.
God is to be glorified as the God of nature and the God of grace to his people. He is also to be glorified as the God of Israel, Jerusalem, and Zion.
Application:
Glorify God now through your praises to him. Glorify him now by telling how great and powerful a God is he, how marvelous are his deeds and how good he is to provide for all your needs.
Thank him for your salvation in him. Welcome him and his presence into your life’s circumstance.
