“Let them exalt Him also in the assembly of the people…” Psalm 107:32a

PUBLIC WORSHIP

After such great acts of mercy, how should the heart respond? The psalmist suggested that God’s name should be exalted in public worship, no less!

“Let them exalt Him also in the assembly of the people,
And praise Him in the company of the elders.”
Psalm 107:32
