Psalms 148:1-2 - Echoing The Praise of Heaven. (hymn version)Psalms 148:1-2 (NIV) Praise the LORD. Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise him in the heights above. 2 Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his heavenly hosts.CONTEXT AND INTRODUCTION All creation is like a majestic symphony or a great choir composed of many harmonious parts that together offer up songs of praise to the Lord. Each part (independent, yet part of the whole) is caught up and carried along in swelling tides of praise. This is a picture of how we as believers should praise God - individually, yet as part of the great choir of believers worldwide. Are you singing your part well in the worldwide choir of praise? [Life Application SB 2019] COMMENTARY PEARL Echoing The Praise of Heaven At this very moment, heaven is roaring with worship for Jesus. As you read these words, the greatest choir in the history of the world is singing and shouting praise to the King. But it doesn't stop there. God is extending an invitation for you, too, to join in that chorus. As you stand in awe before His throne, He calls you to join the angels and echo back that same praise with every fiber of your being. This is the song of eternity: Holy, holy, holy! Worthy is the Lamb of God; the sacrifice for our sins, Jesus Christ who was slain but has been resurrected to new and permanent life forevermore. Hallelujah! When this melody takes root in your soul, you can't help but declare the praises of the One who is worthy of all worship. You can't help but share this good news with the world and reorient your entire life around this one goal - to echo the sound of heaven to the lost and hurting here on earth. Dear God, as I hear the praise of Your name, may I be empowered to join and sing loudly the song of heaven.
