Don't miss out! (Count: Psalm 148)
All of creation = made by God.
All of creation = known by God.
All of creation = is a song of praise to God.
In Psalm 148, it's pretty clear that all that exists is here to glorify the ONE who created it.
Angels and the spiritual realm.
Sun, moon, stars, planets.
Sea creatures, mountains, wild beasts..
Even the weather?
Yep.
David ends with the praise that comes from people. This backward journey through Psalms is helping me think more about worship, and if I'm WILLING to give God the credit, attention, and love that His greatness deserves.
Here David mentions Israel again, calling them, "a people close to His (God's) heart."
How great is our God?
I suppose it doesn't matter what you or I think. God is far greater than anything or anyone in heaven or on earth. It's reality. But He wants us to praise Him. He wants to bring us joy and be close to us. Amazing.
