It’s an interesting invitation, isn’t it. Come and enjoy something majestic, brilliant, breathtaking, outstanding, utterly remarkable, extraordinary, extremely superb in every way of which terms like beauty and splendour barely scratch the surface of that which you behold with all your senses. It’s interesting, because that’s not always the way praise and worship of God […]
Read More Psalm 96 – Invitation to SplendourIt’s easy to get worship wrong. First we can worship anything and anyone other than the One truly worthy of our worship. We see things of great sparkle and alluring qualities and we will do anything for them despite the lack of power they have to make the worship worthwhile. That degree of wrong worship […]
Read More Psalm 95 – Invitation to True WorshipThis is not a shy and retiring Psalm. From the get go, the Psalmist is looking for God to do justice. For vengeance to be done properly, it’s best leaving it to the One who will execute it in all fairness, justice and righteousness. This is a great Psalm for God as a good judge. […]
Read More Psalm 94 – There For YouCrescendo. I loved that word the first time I heard it, without even knowing what it meant. Then when I heard what it meant and the sheer power of the effect it has when done superbly I love it even more. Sure there are times for the diminuendo, that has its place for sure. Yet […]
Read More Psalm 93 – Who Is The Big DealI love the boldness of this Psalm. I love its strong declaration. I love the promise in what it says. To flourish is a concept worthy of investing time in considering and then applying especially when you discover the source, the foundation of all true flourishing. I also love and intrigued by appropriate a Psalm […]
Read More Psalm 92 – Rest, Reflect, Refresh and Replenish[It’s my honour and privilege to share a guest entry on the blog for this entry in the Psalms series. My dear friend and sister in Christ, Afua Gyapomaa Bampoe, aka simplygyaps, shares a compelling insight into this fascinating Psalm.] When thieves steal from a house, they get harsher punishment than stealing on the street. […]
Read More Psalm 91 – Safety Goes Beyond Locked DoorsWorship is expressed in different ways. One of the things I am growing to appreciate about worship is how it should help us be a lot more reflective. This kind of Psalm helps with that process. It’s good to get a perspective on life from an eternal standpoint. Here the life of a human is […]
Read More Psalm 90 – One Way to Get The HelpThis Psalm was going really well. For the first two thirds if not three quarters here was another great anthem of praise to the greatness of God. Then seemingly out of nowhere it goes switching into wondering why God has not followed up His greatness in the life of the Psalmist. By the end of […]
Read More Psalm 89 – Light and ShadeIt is one thing to come across a lament, but this Psalm in particular is relentless in its commitment to being morose. Sometimes the Psalm is read with an eye looking for the hit where the Psalmist looks up in hope to God, where remembering the goodness of God bursts through the darkness. None of […]
Read More Psalm 88 – When Darkness Is All There IsIt’s interesting how many people invest a lot in a piece of land. Holding such national pride over a piece of land that was not even called that nation generations before. So many lives dedicated to a concept of a nation as if the nation was always in existence and will remain in existence forever. […]
