"Make a joyful shout to The Lord, all you lands! Serve The Lord with gladness; come before His presence with singing. Know that The Lord, He is good; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; we are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter His gates with Thanksgiving. and into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For The Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations." Psalm 100.
This Psalm is titled "A Psalm of Thanksgiving." It teaches us much about having a heart and mind of thanksgiving toward our loving and caring God not just one Thursday each year but everyday. Proclaiming this Psalm each day will illustrate a heart full of thanksgiving for our Lord God.
Verse One Says, "Make A Joyful Shout To The Lord." The Israelites, as they march around the walls of Jericho, shouted to The Lord with a voice of triumph and the walls came tumbling down. . . Lord, touch our hearts to shout words of triumph unto You each day in every situation.
Verse Two Says, "Serve The Lord With Gladness." The place to be happy is here and the time to be happy is now. . . Lord, grant us hearts and minds of happiness unto You each day.
Verse Three Says, "Know That The Lord He Is God." Before we can have any real joy, we have to recognize the authority of God in our lives. . . Lord, give us a heart and mind attitude of knowing you as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
Verse Four Says, "Enter His Gates With Thanksgiving." Prior to approaching our Lord God, we must have hearts of repentance and thanksgiving. . .Lord, turn our hearts into hearts of reverence unto You.
Verse Five Says, "For The Lord Is Good." We need to acknowledge each day that everything good in our lives is a love gift from Our Lord God. . .Lord, give us hearts of unconditional love, joy and thanksgiving unto You each day.
May The Lord Bless You And Keep You In His Care Each Day,
