Psalm 100: 1
Make a joyful noise
unto the LORD, all ye lands.
This is a psalm of praise which exalts all nations on the
earth to praise the Lord. In the next verse the psalmist writes; ‘Be joyful and sing as you come in to
worship the LORD!’ Then he says, you know the reason why you need to worship
because ‘You know the LORD is God!’
The psalmist makes a strong appeal for men to worship God,
this is not because God need our worship but instead we need to understand that
we have been created to worship Him. All men have been appointed to worship
God. We are reminded in verse 2 Be
joyful and sing as you come in to worship the LORD! This applies whether we
worship Him in pubic or in the privacy of our home. In fact each time we
worship, that is a privilege as His children and we must come with joy in our
hearts as we prepare to worship Him.
This psalm is a short one but in just the few verses, we are
reminded that this is our duty as believers. Therefore each time we come before
the Lord in worship, we are to give thanks and praise His Name. Why is this so,
in verse 5 the psalmist explains. “For
the Lord is good and his live endures forever.”
Therefore each day we must remember that and we must be
thankful in our hearts as we worship God.
