Psalm 103:19–22: The Lord has established His throne in heaven, and His kingdom rules over all. Bless the Lord, you His angels, who excel in strength, who do His word, heeding the voice of His word. Bless the Lord, all you His hosts, you ministers of His, who do His pleasure. Bless the Lord, all His works, in all places of His dominion. Bless the Lord, O my soul!
Experiencing Jesus in the Psalms
David declared that the Lord’s dominion is over all the earth. Therefore all angels, God’s heavenly hosts, who are His servants, and all His Creation (His works) everywhere should praise the Lord. David closed his psalm in the way he began: by exhorting himself (O my soul) to praise the Lord. 1
Living the Transformed Life
Then a voice came from the throne, saying, “Praise our God, all you His servants and those who fear Him, both small and great!” And I heard, as it were, the voice of a great multitude, as the sound of many waters and as the sound of mighty thunderings, saying, “Alleluia! For the Lord God Omnipotent reigns! Revelation 19:5–6
- Bless the Lord…with your joyful attitude of obedience.
- Bless the Lord…with your personal testimony about His saving grace upon you.
- Bless the Lord…with your heart of worship about His wondrous works in your life.
He is worthy to be praised, because He made everything that is praiseworthy.
Praise and Prayer
Thank You, Father, for reigning and ruling in my life. Alleluia! Dear Jesus, make me into a disciple that worships You in Spirit and in truth.
