January 24 - Psalm 150 · A Chapter a Day Bible Reading

• 0:11
  Hello, friends. It's Sean here.
• 0:14
  And hey, hey, it's Friday. It is the 24th of January.
• 0:18
  I've reached the end of the week.
• 0:20
  Well done you. I hope it has been.
• 0:23
  Yeah, a lovely week, a week where you have felt like you are
• 0:26
  getting some runs on the board if you're trying to be
• 0:28
  productive, or you have been deeply restored if you are still
• 0:32
  enjoying a break. But whatever your circumstance,
• 0:36
  here we are at the end of a momentous journey.
• 0:40
  Today we will read Psalm 150. That is the last Psalm in the
• 0:45
  book of Psalms. That means that it has been
• 0:47
  three full years since we began reading a Psalm every Friday.
• 0:52
  Hasn't it been great, friends? Hasn't it been awesome?
• 0:55
  I have loved getting to go through the Psalms, some of them
• 0:59
  gruelling as the psalmist cries out in anguish and others
• 1:04
  marching up that hill to Jerusalem, and many of them
• 1:08
  praising the Lord, which is what today is today.
• 1:12
  This final Psalm is a Psalm of praise.
• 1:16
  It is a short Psalm, only 6 verses long, but we shall
• 1:22
  proclaim every one of those verses as we adopt this posture
• 1:27
  of praise along with the psalmist.
• 1:29
  So, friends, let us end this chapter.
• 1:32
  Let us end this book of psalms together with a triumphant shout
• 1:36
  of praise as we declare together the words of Psalm 150.
• 1:51
  Praise the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary,
• 1:55
  Praise Him in his mighty heaven. Praise Him for His mighty works.
• 2:01
  Praise His unequalled greatness. Praise Him with a blast of the
• 2:06
  ram's horn. Praise him with the lyre and
• 2:09
  harp. Praise Him with the tambourine
• 2:13
  and dancing. Praise Him with strings and
• 2:16
  flutes. Praise Him with a clash of
• 2:19
  cymbals. Praise Him with loud, clanging
• 2:22
  cymbals. Let everything that breathes
• 2:26
  sing praises to the Lord. Praise the Lord.
• 2:42
  What more is there to say? Let our hearts, let our lives be
• 2:48
  of praise to You, Lord, today, in the decisions that we make,
• 2:53
  in the words that we choose to use in our actions.
• 2:56
  Let them all reverberate praise to You so that you see in us
• 3:02
  Your faithful servants who just want to live lives of praise to
• 3:06
  you, our glorious God. We may not use tambourines and
• 3:11
  dancing today, or crashing cymbals, but may we be just as
• 3:16
  overt and loud in our praise of you today.
• 3:21
  You are alone, so worthy of all our praise, and so we give that
• 3:27
  to you now, our wonderful Saviour, our mighty King, and
• 3:32
  our loving God. We pray all of this in that
• 3:36
  saving name of Jesus, Amen.
