Read Psalm 98.
The psalmist is counting his blessings and calling everyone, including all nature, to join in singing praises to God. The LORD had done marvelous things and he could not be silent. This is a new song, much different than those estranged from God can sing. Everyone on earth enjoys the blessings of God moment by moment throughout all of life. But stopping to give credit and honor to the One to whom it is due requires time, thought, an open heart as well as an open mouth.
1. God had demonstrated His power. (v.1)
Where did God demonstrate His power to you this week?
2. God had made known His salvation. (v.2a)
How have you responded this week to His deliverance of you?
3. God had revealed His righteousness. (v.2b)
When this week did you see that God was right?
4. God had shown steadfast love. (v.3a)
What happened this week where God's love was evidenced to you?
5. God had been faithful. (v.3b)
In what ways did God show His faithfulness to you this week?
"Summer and winter, and springtime and harvest,
Sun, moon and stars in their courses above
Join with all nature in manifold witness
To Thy great faithfulness, mercy and love."
Thomas O. Chisholm
