BIBLICALLY-STATED WORKS OF GOD

The Psalmist was correct to list some very important works that God had done for His people in Psalm 98. Three things may be highlighted:-

1. The victories that He wrought for His people Psalm 98:1

2. The deliverance He gave to His people Psalm 98:2

3. He has given glorious mercy Psalm 98:3

APPROPRIATE RESPONSE

Let us consider appropriate response suggested by the Psalmist.

1. To sing to the Lord a new song Psalm 98:1

2. To shout joyfully to the Lord Psalm 98:4

3. To call upon all creation to rejoice in the Lord in worship Psalm 98:4-9

Let us ever worship our great and wonderful God who continues to do marvelous things for us! May we worship the Lord with fullness of joy!
