THE OPENING INVOCATION OF THIS GLORIOUS PSALM SHOULD REVERBERATE AROUND THE GLOBE, BY ALL PEOPLES, ALL NATIONS, ALL KINDREDS, AND ALL TONGUES! THE GIVING OF THANKS UNTO THE LORD: WHY? “FOR HE IS GOOD: FOR HIS MERCY ENDURETH FOR EVER! LET THE REDEEMED OF THE LORD SAY SO, WHOM HE HATH REDEEMED FROM THE HAND OF THE ENEMY! THEN THEY CRIED UNTO THE LORD IN THEIR TROUBLE, AND HE DELIVERED THEM OUT OF THEIR DISTRESSES. OH THAT MEN WOULD PRAISE THE LORD FOR HIS GOODNESS, AND FOR HIS WONDERFUL WORKS TO THE CHILDREN OF MEN! FOR HE SATISFIETH THE LONGING SOUL, AND FILLETH THE HUNGRY SOUL WITH GOODNESS”! (v6-9)! THIS ADMONITION IS REPEATED 4 TIMES AS IF TO IMPLY THE WORTHINESS OF THE LORD IN HIS MANIFOLD GOODNESS, GRACE, AND MERCY, THAT SHOULD ALWAYS BE KEPT IN OUR REMEMBRANCE! “FOR WITHOUT HIM WE CAN DO NOTHING” (John 15:5)! NEITHER SHALL WE EVER FORGET THAT: “YE HAVE NOT CHOSEN ME, BUT I HAVE CHOSEN YOU, AND ORDAINED YOU, THAT YE SHOULD GO AND BRING FORTH FRUIT, AND THAT YOUR FRUIT SHOULD REMAIN”! (John 15:16)! TO MEDITATE UPON THE FACT THAT: “EYE HATH NOT SEEN, NOR EAR HEARD, NEITHER HAVE ENTERED INTO THE HEART OF MAN, THE THINGS WHICH GOD HATH PREPARED FOR THEM THAT LOVE HIM. BUT GOD HATH REVEALED THEM UNTO US BY HIS SPIRIT, FOR THE SPIRIT SEARCHETH ALL THINGS, YEA, THE DEEP THINGS OF GOD”! (1 Corinthians 2:9-10)! “IN EVERYTHING GIVE THANKS: FOR THIS IS THE WILL OF GOD IN CHRIST JESUS CONCERNING YOU”! QUENCH NOT THE SPIRIT, DESPISE NOT PROPHESYINGS. PROVE ALL THINGS; HOLD FAST THAT WHICH IS GOOD. ABSTAIN FROM ALL APPEARANCE OF EVIL. AND THE VERY GOD OF PEACE SANCTIFY YOU WHOLLY; AND I PRAY GOD YOUR WHOLE SPIRIT AND SOUL AND BODY BE PRESERVED BLAMELESS UNTO THE COMING OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. FAITHFUL IS HE THAT CALLETH YOU, WHO ALSO WILL DO IT”! (1 Thessalonians 5:18-24)!
