We read Psalm 47 in our Spoken Word Bible Reading Plan for today. Here is that Psalm!
Psalm 47
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.
1 O clap your hands, all you peoples! Shout to God with the voice of triumph and songs of joy!
2 For the Lord Most High excites terror, awe, and dread; He is a great King over all the earth.
3 He subdued peoples under us, and nations under our feet.
4 He chose our inheritance for us, the glory and pride of Jacob, whom He loves. Selah [pause, and calmly think of that]!
5 God has ascended amid shouting, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
7 For God is the King of all the earth; sing praises in a skillful psalm and with understanding.
8 God reigns over the nations; God sits upon His holy throne.
9 The princes and nobles of the peoples are gathered together, a [united] people for the God of Abraham, for the shields of the earth belong to God; He is highly exalted.
If you can't come up with anything in your life to thank God for, then declare this Psalm as praise to Him! SHOUT to Him with a triumphant voice! Use the 'voice' you would use if you just found out you had won a lottery! TRIUMPHANT and JOYFUL!!! THAT should ALWAYS be our attitude where GOD is concerned! NO ONE will EVER love you more than GOD already does, and has proven! SO, give Him unrestrained praise, thanksgiving and worship! Go on, do it NOW! Here to help you with that is Hillsong with "I Am Who You Say I Am":
Shalom in Him!
