Psalm 97:12 “Rejoice in the Lord, you who are righteous, and praise his holy name.” The likelihood of any of us ever having been called holy is Zero. The Only One the word Holy accurately applies to is God. Since that statement is true, isn’t it also true that we should study His Bible to learn as much as we possibly can? Isn’t it also true that all faithful believers=the righteous, would rejoice and praise His Holy Name. You and I have a responsibility and privilege today and everyday.

Psalm 97:11 “Light shines on the righteous and joy on the upright in heart.” Have you even been asked–how are you? And your answer is “fine” or “better than I ought to be” or “alright”. Our answer to that question is most often from slight depression to full blown negative. Why? Because we don’t live intentionally realizing the caring love our Savior wants you and me to feel. His caring love is always shining. Now, how are you? Answer: Couldn’t be better!

Psalm 97:10 “Let those who love the Lord hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.” You and I cannot love God while at the same time want to enjoy anything this world suggests is a pleasure. This world’s pleasures always lead to a chaotic life and a sadness which totally overrides the tiny temporary pleasure. Contentedness, peace and joyful living always accompany a faithful relationship with our Heavenly Father. Have a great weekend.

Psalm 97:9 “For you, Lord, are the Most High over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods.” Our Psalmist continually tells us the foolishness of worshipping the gods of this earth. We are time after time warned of placing anything in front of God in our lives. It is totally senseless to follow man made idols when God presents Himself as the True Majestic Master and as His faith filled followers we can enjoy the tremendous benefits He showers on each of us. Why would anyone give that up?

Psalm 96:9 “Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth.” How much time in our day do we spend honoring God? How much time in our day do we spend being concerned about ourselves? Our health, our finances, our earthly relationships, our meals, our homes–just simply ourselves. Let’s make our relationship with our Savior dominate our thinking and everything else will simply fall into place as God intends. We will find we couldn’t live better.
