Psa 146:1-2, PRAISE THE LORD! PRAISE THE LORD, O MY SOUL! WHILE I LIVE I WILL PRAISE THE LORD; I WILL SING PRAISES TO MY GOD WHILE I HAVE MY BEING.
The Psalmist has determined that in his life he will praise the LORD. I truly believe when it’s our turn to see GOD we are going to be awe struck, just simply shocked by HIS HOLINESS!
Isa 6:3-4, And one cried to another and said: “HOLY, HOLY, HOLY IS THE LORD OF HOSTS; THE WHOLE EARTH IS FULL OF HIS GLORY!” And the posts of the door were shaken by the voice of him who cried out, AND THE HOUSE WAS FILLED WITH SMOKE.
HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED!
Psa 146:3-4, Do not put your trust in princes, Nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help. His spirit departs, he returns to his earth; In that very day his plans perish.
The Psalmist is not placing his trust on man nor in his riches, because man will fail you, but the LORD will never fail! HE will always do good for that is who HE is!
Psa 145:8-9, THE LORD IS GRACIOUS AND FULL OF COMPASSION, SLOW TO ANGER AND GREAT IN MERCY. THE LORD IS GOOD TO ALL, AND HIS TENDER MERCIES ARE OVER ALL HIS WORKS.
Psa 146:8, THE LORD OPENS THE EYES OF THE BLIND; THE LORD RAISES THOSE WHO ARE BOWED DOWN; THE LORD LOVES THE RIGHTEOUS.
Can you see JESUS in this verse! HE opened the eyes of the blind, not just physically blind but spiritually blind! And, HE raises those who are bowed down or bent over!
Luk 13:11-13, And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, AND WAS BENT OVER AND COULD IN NO WAY RAISE HERSELF UP. But when JESUS saw her, HE called her to HIM and said to her, “WOMAN, YOU ARE LOOSED FROM YOUR INFIRMITY.” And HE laid HIS hands on her, and IMMEDIATELY SHE WAS MADE STRAIGHT, AND GLORIFIED GOD.
Psa 146:10, The LORD shall reign forever—Your God, O Zion, to all generations. PRAISE THE LORD!
As the Psalmist said, I WILL PRAISE HIM WHILE I LIVE; for HE IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED AND HIS KINGDOM IS FOREVER!
Heb 1:8, But to the SON HE says: “YOUR THRONE, O GOD, IS FOREVER AND EVER; A SCEPTER OF RIGHTEOUSNESS IS THE SCEPTER OF YOUR KINGDOM.
