Psalm 148 (CSB)
1 “Hallelujah! Praise the Lord from the heavens; praise him in the heights. 2 Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his heavenly armies. 3 Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all you shining stars. 4 Praise him, highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens. 5 Let them praise the name of the Lord, for he commanded, and they were created.6 He set them in position forever and ever; he gave an order that will never pass away.”
I did not print all the verses in chapter 148 but I encourage you to read the complete chapter.
Much of this Psalm as with most of them is they contain praise for God almighty. He is to be praised in all things. The author and background for this Psalm which calls for God’s creation to praise Him is unknown.
Since I listed the first six verses I will comment on them.
Who? Verses 1 through 4 tell us the Who. It is the Lord we praise.
Why? Because He commanded that we should praise Him.
148:1 – A representative sample of God’s creation in the skies and heavens.
148: 2 – Some translations use all His hosts which are His angels.
148:5 – 6 – He emphatically ascribes creation to God alone.
Yesterday many of us went to church to worship. Do we realize worship is meant for God it’s not about what we get out of it but what we do for Him?
God Bless.
