LET ALL THE PEOPLES PRAISE YOU

WE CELEBRATE 40+7 YEARS OF GOD’S BLESSINGS TODAY

There is no shadow of a doubt that the LORD has blessed us at Bethany. He has blessed the Bethany Family of Churches in Australia, India and Myanmar wonderfully! It is right that we offer great praises to our great God!

1 God be merciful to us and bless us,

And cause His face to shine upon us, Selah

That Your way may be known on earth,

Your salvation among all nations.

Let the peoples praise You, O God;

Let all the peoples praise You.

Oh, let the nations be glad and sing for joy!

For You shall judge the people righteously,

And govern the nations on earth. Selah

Let the peoples praise You, O God;

Let all the peoples praise You.

Then the earth shall yield her increase;

God, our own God, shall bless us.

God shall bless us,

And all the ends of the earth shall fear Him.     Psalm 67:1-7

  1. A great call to all to offer praise to the LORD

a) The phrase “All the peoples” 

This was repeated four times over

b) In our application

We call on all four countries to offer praise to God

i) Australia

ii) India

iii) Myanmar

iv) Singapore

Taken together let our AIMS be to glorify God and to praise Him forever and ever! May praise always be a major feature of our Churches! The Lord our God deserves all our praise for all that He has done in our midst!

  1. A Vital prayer to God as we step forward to our 40+8th year 

a) That God would continue to be merciful to us

b) That He would continue to bless us

c) That He would make His face to shine upon us

d) That He would reveal His way to us

e) That His salvation may be known to many on earth

OUR CHALLENGE

Let both praise and prayer be our focus as we conclude another year of ministry, and commence a new year of service for the Lord! Let us be very confident that our God would indeed bless us as He has all these many years!
