A weekly hymn for the Sabbath, celebrating God’s steadfast love and faithfulness.
Gratitude is central to our relationship with God, as it fosters joy and strengthens faith. The Power of Thankfulness
The psalmist highlights the goodness of praising God, both in the morning (to set the tone for the day) and at night (to reflect on His faithfulness).
Benefits of gratitude include better sleep, improved mental health, and stronger relationships. The Righteous vs. the Wicked
God blesses the righteous with spiritual vitality, strength, and fruitfulness, even in old age.
In contrast, the wicked, though they may flourish temporarily, face ultimate destruction.
Worship through music and instruments enhances the experience of thankfulness.
Declaring God's works reminds us of His faithfulness in our lives. God’s Judgments and Blessings
His judgments on evildoers demonstrate His justice and sovereignty.
His blessings on the righteous reflect His ongoing care and provision.Originally preached February 5, 2023
