Dec 20, 2018 - Suggested Reading Psalm 148 for Dec 23rds messages on Luke 1:5-25 and Luke 1:26-38 in our morning services at 9 and 10:45

“Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his heavenly hosts.”

Psalm 148:2 (NIV)  

The list of those who should praise the LORD is very complete, and appears to be in the order of creation.

The angels are at the top of the list – the first created

Then the sun and moon and stars

Then the heavens (atmosphere) – waters above the skies

Let them praise the LORD for He created them with a decree that is everlasting.

Then the sea creatures and ocean depths

Then the weather systems that do His bidding

Then the mountains, hills and trees

Then the wild animals and cattle

Then the small creatures and birds

Then comes the humans – the last created

The kings, princes and rulers

The men and women and aged and children.

Let them praise the Name of the LORD

for His Name is exalted; His splendor is above the earth and heavens

for He raised up for us a horn (our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ) who is the praise of God’s faithful servants who are the people close to His heart.

Let us stop right now and praise the LORD!
