This morning I was captivated by this psalm. While reading, the Holy Spirit really gave me a sense of God’s greatness and that moved my heart towards an attitude of thanksgiving because God is sovereign and reigns over all creation from His holy throne. So I thought I’d share this with you today as you prepare to celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday tomorrow.
Psalm 47 (ESV) – God is King Over All the Earth!
Clap your hands, all peoples!
Shout to God with loud songs of joy!
For the Lord, the Most High, is to be feared,
a great king over all the earth.
He subdued peoples under us,
and nations under our feet.
He chose our heritage for us,
the pride of Jacob whom he loves. Selah
God has gone up with a shout,
the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
Sing praises to God, sing praises!
Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
For God is the King of all the earth;
sing praises with a psalm!
God reigns over the nations;
God sits on his holy throne.
The princes of the peoples gather
as the people of the God of Abraham.
For the shields of the earth belong to God;
he is highly exalted!
I’m thankful to have such a great team of small group leaders and coaches. May you and your families have a blessed Thanksgiving!
