Praise the Lord

(Ps 149:1-5) Praise the Lord.

Sing to the Lord a new song,

     his praise in the assembly of the saints.

Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;

     let the people of Zion be glad in their King.

Let them praise his name with dancing

     and make music to him with

     tambourine and harp.

For the Lord takes delight in his people;

     he crowns the humble with salvation.

Let the saints rejoice in this honour

     and sing for joy on their beds.

Once again we are reminded that the Lord delights in His people – He delights in us!  God wants us to celebrate Him and His delight in us!  Praise Him in song and dance!  Yes – move your body in praise of the One who made such an amazing wonderful body! Make music to the Lord with whatever instrument you have.  Praise him at church and on your bed, and everywhere in between!  We have a Maker and He loves us!  Rejoice in this honour!
