Give Thanks to the Lord for His Works!

 

Psalm 92:
1:It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
    to sing praises to your name, O Most High;
2 to declare your steadfast love in the morning,
    and your faithfulness by night,
3 to the music of the lute and the harp,
    to the melody of the lyre.
4 For you, O Lord, have made me glad by your work;
    at the works of your hands I sing for joy.

In this psalm for the Sabbath, we find once again thanks for God's love and faithfulness, but additionally, the works of His hands. The psalm proceeds to acknowledge wisdom and ability that God has that none other can understand.  The one who trusts in Him, acknowledging His day of rest to celebrate He creative power and blessing on all those who love Him, will receive and enjoy all the wonderful things God does, makes, and gives. The word the psalmist uses, which has become popular again today is "Flourish". The one knows, trusts, loves, and thanks God will flourish in this life and in God's presence.
