This past week, I have returned to my “psalms project.” I am writing a devotional based on each of the 150 psalms. As a result, I have had the opportunity to read and reread Psalms 90-100.
Worship begins with a heart attuned to God. The Lord reigns—majestic, strong, eternal, transcendent, invincible, and holy. The Lord is upright and righteousness. On the foundation of who God is one declares God as Fortress and Rock. His creative majesty declares his nature–the world, God’s Word, God’s holiness are immovable.
I suspect that our struggles with worship are indications that we have not recognized God’s glory. It is not enough to recognize God’s existence. God desires to be worshiped for who he is. Therefore, God defines worship–by his nature and by his Word. Worship is a human endeavor but it is God-informed. God designed worship to touch the human spirit but worship is ultimately not about me but is about who God is.
He is worthy of praise!
