July 29, 2007 Morning Sermon
July 24, 2007This coming Sunday I will be preaching on Psalm 66. It is a hymn of praise given by a thankful and excited psalmist who has been saved from certain doom. Saved not by his doing, but by the mighty hand of God.
The psalm sees the thankful poet crying out to the whole earth to praise the Lord. Look at all His awesome deeds. Don’t they point to a God? They do! But the earth doesn’t respond.
Next the psalmist calls to Israel, prodding them to remember the things that God has done for them. How He has saved and rescued them. How He has not let their foot slip. And how He has put them into a place of abundance.
Finally, the psalmist vows to the Lord to bring an offering. To bring praises and thanks to Him for all He has done. And then the psalmist cries out to all who will hear the deeds that God has done for him.
And we shout out with the psalmist “Give praise to the Lord for His love is never failing!”
We celebrate the profession of faith of one of youth, David D. And we celebrate Lord’s Supper. Give praise to the Lord for His love is never failing!
