Key word psalm and prayer or blog talk radio
The first line in this psalm is “Hear this all you people.”
This line is used a lot.
What are we hearing about?
Let’s read through the bible to find out.
Psalm 78:1 says: “My people, hear my teaching.”
So what we’re hearing, or in this case reading, is a teaching.
We’re being taught when we read the bible.
Psalm 50:7 “Listen, my people, and I will speak; I will testify against you Israel; I am God, your God.”
To testify means to present evidence.
Not only is God speaking to us, but God is presenting evidence against us.
But there’s more…
Psalm 81:8 “hear me my people and I will warn you.”
So this is our warning:
God is testifying against us.
But it doesn’t end there.
Isaiah 55:3 “Give ear and come to me, listen, that you may live. I will make an everlasting covenant with you, my faithful love promised to David.”
Wow, so we got our warning because God wants us to live.
Plus he made a covenant (promise) that we will always have his faithful love.
We are to listen to the Lord so we can hear His teaching,
hear His warning about His testifying
and about His agreement of faithful love to us.
