Shalom,


Psalm 135:1-5:


¹PRAISE THE Lord! (Hallelujah!) Praise the name of the Lord; praise Him, O you servants of the Lord! ²You who stand in the house of the Lord, in the courts of the house of our God, ³Praise the Lord! For the Lord is good; sing praises to His name, for He is gracious and lovely! ⁴For the Lord has chosen [the descendants of] Jacob for Himself, Israel for His peculiar possession and treasure. ⁵For I know that the Lord is great and that our Lord is above all gods.


Remember, now, that as a born again believer in the Lord Jesus, you ARE the house of God! 1 Corinthians 3:16-17:

16 Don't you realize that all of you together are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God lives in you? 17 God will destroy anyone who destroys this temple. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple.

So, houses of God, PRAISE HIM! Amen! Then Psalm 135:12 tells us, again, who the nation of Israel REALLY belongs to:


¹² [The Lord] gave their land as a heritage, a heritage to Israel His people.


Verses 19-21 are their instructions:

 ¹⁹ Bless (affectionately and gratefully praise) the Lord, O house of Israel; bless the Lord, O house of Aaron [God's ministers]. ²⁰Bless the Lord, O house of Levi [the dedicated tribe]; you who reverently and worshipfully fear the Lord, bless the Lord [affectionately and gratefully praise Him]! ²¹Blessed out of Zion be the Lord, Who dwells [with us] at Jerusalem! Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)

Then verse 13 is for ALL of us!


¹³Your name, O Lord, endures forever, Your fame, O Lord, throughout all ages.


Amen! So, let's "shout His fame"! Amen here to help you do that is Hillsong with "Shout Your Fame":

Shalom in Him!
