CHAPTER 95
Let us sing unto the Lord—Let us worship and bow down before hime—Israel provoked the Lord and failed to enter into his rest. |
||
|
1 O COME, let us
asing unto the LORD: let us make a
bjoyful noise to the crock of our
salvation.
2 Let us come before his presence with athanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. 3 For the LORD is a agreat God, and a great bKing above all godsa. |
3a above all gods While it was in the day of King David that there were many man formed gods which various nations did worship, the fact of the matter is that there are no other gods but God. Perhaps a sort of mind set which David did cope with in dealing with these other nations was to recognize other gods, but that Jehovah was greater than these 'lesser gods'. Today various religions worship God or gods which we ought to know is not the true or the truth of the nature and being of God. And even by the worship of our own hands and in forgetting God do we form a worship of other gods which we have made up in our minds. But there is only one true God of this estate, Jehovah, whom God the Father of the Celestial Kingdom has so appointed and made to be our one true and only God by and through whom we may come and work unto the purpose of life and eternity. | |
|
4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.
5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. 6 O come, let us aworship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our bmaker. |
||
|
7 For he is our God; and we are
the people of his pasture, and the asheep of his hand.
bTo day if ye will chear his
dvoice,
8 aHarden not your heart, as bin the cprovocation, and as in the day of dtemptation in the wilderness: 9 When your fathers tempted me, aproved me, and saw my work. |
||
|
10 aForty years long was I
bgrieved with this cgeneration,
and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not
known my ways:
11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not aenter into my brest. |
