11.24.24.God’s Love!

Psalm 136 God’s Love is Enduring

This psalm was sung in the early church at Passover. The notes on this psalm tell us: “The psalmist called on the people to give thanks to God three times. The refrain here and throughout the psalm explains the reason for praising Him. The repetition of the refrain in each verse serves to cause the reader to applaud every divine act that the writer mentioned.” 

This is the week we stop to praise God for all He has done. Perhaps this psalm might be a good way to begin our Thanksgiving celebration. Do we applaud God for all He has done both now and on special occasions? This is a good reminder for us.

Today as you enter the sanctuary, stop and give God praise for all He has done and will do. Praise Him in the sanctuary and in the city and in the fields. No matter where you are, stop and echo these words so all may hear: praise God for all He has done and will do because His love is enduring.
