Sing Praises 12/5-7/18

05-07 Dec 2018 - Sing Praises – Manna by Dorothy and Tony
Psalm 98:4 “Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth; break forth in song, rejoice, and sing praises” (NKJV).

Psalm 98 encourages us to sing a new song for God who “has done marvelous things; His right hand and His holy arm have gained Him the victory” (v.1).  Psalm 98 encourages us to praise Him –even in times of difficulty—for God remembers “His mercy and His faithfulness” toward Israel (v.3). 

Although this Psalm 98 is about God freeing the Israelites from slavery, it is also a prophetic song of praise for the victory of the Lord and for His salvation made known to Israel and all the nations (v.1-3).  This is about our salvation through Jesus Christ our Lord and the gospel of Jesus Christ is spreading all over the world.

The psalmist wrote: “Let the sea roar, and all its fullness, the world and those who dwell in it; . . . let the hills be joyful together before the Lord” (v.7-9).  This verses encourages us to join with God’s creation in singing praise to our Savior!

Dorothy:  The Psalm 98 has truly open my inner spirit to see that our God is a faith God because His holy arm have gained Him the victory.  Oh Lord, thank You for the Holy Spirit that works inside of me and I pray that the Holy Spirit will also work inside of those who read this Manna. Oh let’s sing the wondrous love of Jesus! Sing His mercy and His grace!

Song: When We All Get to Heaven
Sing the wondrous love of Jesus,
Sing His mercy and His grace;
In the mansions bright and blessed,
He’ll prepare for us a place.
Chorus:
When we all … get to heaven,
What a day of rejoicing that will be!
When we all … see Jesus,
We’ll sing and shout the victory.

Let us then be true and faithful,
Trusting serving every day;
Just one glimpse of Him in glory
Will the trials of life repay.
Chorus:
When we all … get to heaven,
What a day of rejoicing that will be!
When we all … see Jesus,
We’ll sing and shout the victory.
(Eliza Edmunds Hewitt, Sing His Praise)

May the Lord truly bless you!
Dorothy
