Tell It

Re:Verse passage – Psalm 96:1-13 (day three)

² Sing to the Lord, bless his name;
tell of his salvation from day to day. (ESV)

When we read this Psalm as a directive for all nations to sing and worship the Lord, we understand the significance of verse two a little more. Here, David is reminding all peoples to sing of the salvation that comes from the Lord (not just Israel). Our praise and worship should start with a thankful expression of the salvation that God has given to all people. David is highlighting the Gospel here in the Old Testament!

I’ve heard Pastor Byron remind us all many times before that the best way for us to share the good news of Jesus is to tell of the difference that Jesus has made in our lives. How are you different because of Jesus? What muck and junk has Jesus saved you from? What has salvation meant to you as a follower of Christ? These answers are what we praise Him for! We worship and praise God because He gave His Son for us so we could be with Him, even though we do not deserve it.

There is somebody out there today that needs to hear your salvation story. They need to hear how God has rescued you from the pit of destruction and has given you new life. Bless the Lord’s name today and every day because of the salvation you have been given, and tell of His salvation as often as you can!
