Title: How Great is Your God?
Text:
Psalm 113:7-9 (HCSB)
7 He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the garbage pile 8 in order to seat them with nobles— with the nobles of His people. 9 He gives the childless woman a household, [making her] the joyful mother of children. Hallelujah!
Observation:
There are two significant reasons for why we worship the Lord. The first is because of who he is, and the second is for what he does. Our focus today is on the latter.
Notice the works of God in our focal passage from Psalm 113, and you will get a picture of the marvelous works of our Lord.
The Lord raises the poor from insufficiency.
The Lord lifts the needy from insignificancy.
The Lord delivers the barren from infertility.
If you are lacking in your life, you will find that the Lord is an abundant provider. What he has done for others, the Lord will do for you. Just like he provided for those who were powerless and needy as described by the Psalmist, he will provide for you. The work of the Lord is to help the deficient, disenfranchised, and the desolate.
The more you know God the more you will worship him. The more grace you receive from God the more you will praise the Lord.
Prayer:
Father God, Abba, Father, I want to know your more, so that I can worship you more. Father, I desire more of your grace so that I can praise you more. Father, you are the giver, and I am the grateful receiver of your love and grace. Father, grant to all eyes to see Your greatness and Your goodness. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray, Amen.
Sing With Me: (Chris Tomlin)
"How great is our God – sing with me
How great is our God – and all will see
How great, how great is our God".
