Love you all, praying for you.
Praying that you will review the PRISM Topic - Praise. I just love the simplicity that God brings through His Word. Why Praise? Psalms 117 (this is the whole very short chapter) Praise the LORD, all you nations; praise him all you peoples. For great is his love toward us, and the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever, Praise the LORD. That’s it. The whole chapter. God uses two words for praise here. The first mention – Halal – to be clear of sound or color, to shine, to make a show, to boast, to be clamorously foolish, to rave. The second mention of praise – is shabach <shaw-bakh’> to address in a loud tone. This command covers everyone - all you nations, all you peoples. Why praise? Simple Because His love for you is great, and His faithfulness endures forever. Another version says because His merciful kindness is great toward us and his truth endureth forever. His Love – here – chesed - <Kheh’-sed> merciful kindness, beauty, favor evidenced by good deeds. His faithfulness – here – emeth <eh’-meth> from awman – to build up or support, to foster as a parent or nurse, to render firm or faithful, to be permanent or quiet, to be true or certain – of long continuance, surely, trusted and trust worthy. It means stability, certainty, truth, trustworthiness, assuredly, established, faithful, right, sure, true, truly. This is a certain unchangeable thing - His love for you. Why praise? His mercy and loving kindness and affection towards you is great – like the mountains, like the oceans, like the stars in the universe, like eternity. And His building up and support and nurture of you remains permanent - continuing forever. He loves you, He will never leave you, He will always support you and pour out his favor on you– in every way, forever. Praying for you - that you will Praise Him – be clear of sound and color, that you'll celebrate, loudly, that you would know His love and faithfulness – His merciful kindness and support of you – and that you would obey in a way that lets Him unleash it! Love you all, dad
