Psalm 108 is the combination of Psalms 57 and 60. The
Holy Spirit inspired the psalmist to put them together, so God has a purpose in
this psalm. If nothing else, it is a reminder to worship God. It is a reminder
to praise Him and be thankful. Today is Sunday. Go to church and let your heart
be glad in Him.
Psalm 108:1-6
My heart is steadfast, O God! I will sing and make
melody with all my being! Awake, O harp and lyre! I will awake the dawn!
I will give thanks to you, O LORD, among the peoples; I will sing praises
to you among the nations. For your steadfast love is great above the
heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. Be exalted, O God,
above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the earth! That your
beloved ones may be delivered, give salvation by your right hand and answer me!
Psalm 108:7-9
God has promised in his holiness: “With exultation I will divide up Shechem and portion out the Valley of Succoth. Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my scepter. Moab is my washbasin; upon Edom I cast my shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
God has promised in his holiness: “With exultation I will divide up Shechem and portion out the Valley of Succoth. Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine; Ephraim is my helmet, Judah my scepter. Moab is my washbasin; upon Edom I cast my shoe; over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
God’s judgments and His actions are always good because
God is holy. Go to church today and stand in awe of our Holy God.
Psalm 108:10-13
Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom? Have you not rejected us, O God? You do not go out, O God, with our armies. Oh grant us help against the foe, for vain is the salvation of man! With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes.
Who will bring me to the fortified city? Who will lead me to Edom? Have you not rejected us, O God? You do not go out, O God, with our armies. Oh grant us help against the foe, for vain is the salvation of man! With God we shall do valiantly; it is he who will tread down our foes.
Our greatest foe is self. It is the pride within us that
leads us to sin against our Holy God. When we sin, we are rebelling against God
and His holiness and against His pure and perfect Word.
Go to church this morning. Go to your knees in humility
and pray the words of this psalm which say, “My heart is steadfast, O God! I
will sing and make melody with all my being! Awake, O harp and lyre! I
will awake the dawn! I will give thanks to you, O LORD, among the
peoples; I will sing praises to you among the nations. For your steadfast
love is great above the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens! Let your glory be over all the
earth! That your beloved ones may be delivered, give salvation by your
right hand and answer me!”
He will answer.
