Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name; make known among the nations what he has done. Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts. Psalm 105.1-2 NIV.
The life of a Christian is not just joy. He suffers for Christ, feels deep concern for his brothers and sisters in the Lord, and agonizes over the evil that dominates the world. Even so, the keynote of his life is praise to God, gratitude to the Lord, and proclaiming to all about salvation in Christ.
The Christian who lives in anxiety, fear, frustration, or sadness has not yet grasped the greatness of the God whose strength, goodness, and faithfulness are constant, vv. 4-8. The great story of God’s people is one of the Lord’s care, protection, and blessing, vv. 9-45. He continues to care for the faithful, protecting and blessing them today.
Therefore, we have even more reason for joy, more cause to praise him, more blessings to thank the Lord for, and more motivation to tell everyone about salvation in Christ Jesus.
