Psalms 47:5-7 (ESV Strong's)
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!
Tag: Reason To Praise God
“For God is the King of all the earth!” If there was a lack of reason to praise God, that phrase alone would fill all the gaps in our minds. Think of the power of that single thought.
1. God is the King of all the earth so I don’t have to worry about the leadership of our nation or the other nations. All the worry we put into the care of the earth and the control of the earth is cleared up completely by that thought.
2. God is the King of all that earth so I don’t have to jump into the hysteria of the politics I see on TV. People are all consumed with politics figures and political agendas. But, when I realize that God is the king of the earth, I can rest in that peaceful thoughts.
3. God is the King of all the earth so I don’t have to be. I can quit trying to control my life and the lives all those around me because God has got it covered. He is the king - I am not. I can not only take the day off because He has it covered, but I can cease in my attempt to control my universe.
4. God is the King of all the earth and that gives me a sense of purpose and plan for my life. Jesus told us to pray the following:
Matthew 6:9-10 (ESV Strong's)
Pray then like this:
“Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
So, I am to pray for the King of the Earth to have His plan worked out on the earth and I am part of that plan. I am seeking His kingdom first:
Matthew 6:33 (ESV Strong's)
But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
So, the fact that God is the King of the Earth gives me great reason to praise today.
