Praise the Lord, all you nations; extol him, all you peoples. For great is his love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever.
Psalm 117
Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles; let all the peoples extol him.
Romans 15:11
Observation
Isn`t it amazing that Psalm 117 is not only the shortest chapter in the Bible, but it is also the middle chapter? Paul quotes from this psalm in Romans 15:11 to show that God’s salvation is for all people, and not just for the Jews. It`s like saying: At the heart of the Bible there is this message that God`s love is for all people and people of all nation are invited to get healed through HIS love!
Application
Today we will have pastor Arthur Hollands sharing the gospel with us at church. My prayer is that each of us will be again touch by God`s love and grace! We can look at Covid or at all the other challenges and get depressed. Or we can look, during this Christmas- and New Year`s season at God and His faithfulness and end up with a heart filled with praise!
Prayer
Father in Heaven, thank you for your amazing love which you have shown to us in Jesus. Thank you for your faithfulness which endures forever! I want to live motivated by your love and faithfulness today!
