Psalm 131 is the twelfth in the series of 15 psalms each with the title, A Song of Ascents. This short psalm is a beautiful denial of pride, arrogance, and selfish ambition.
In this section of Acts 16, Paul's second missionary journey begins. He starts in the city of Derbe, makes his way to Troas, and ends up in Macedonia where a woman is converted.
Psalm 136 is a special psalm, with each one of its 26 verses repeating the sentence, His mercy endures forever. Throughout the Hebrew Scriptures, the phrase has somewhat of a liturgical sense to it, as if the assembled people of Israel said or sung this in response to the direction of the Levites leading singing and worship. We picture a great multitude of the people of God gathered in the temple courts. A priest or Levite would call out a reason to give God thanks, and His people would respond with, “For His mercy endures forever.”
Consider how great the mercy of God is, as it is expressed in the person and work of Jesus Christ throughout this wonderful psalm!
Psalm 100 is a psalm of thanksgiving, and it speaks of an invitation to the whole earth to know and to worship God.
Pastor David Guzik gives the what and why of giving praise and the what and why of giving thanks.
