In Psalm 68 David labors to inspire the praise of God’s people. He does this by reminding them of God’s righteous character and his past saving acts – beginning in the Exodus and wilderness wandering, the conquest of the land of Canaan, and culminating in God’s arrival in Jerusalem. He then anticipates God’s future victories when all nations will lift their hands to the Lord. As Christians, we have all the more reason to praise the Lord because of the person and work of Jesus Christ. Jesus delivers us from bondage to Satan, sin, and death through his substitutionary atonement and victorious resurrection. He dwells within us through the gift of his Spirit and promises future victories when sin and death will be no more. May these truths pass from your head (acknowledgment) to our heart (treasuring) and overflow in joyful worship of God. In all that we do this week, may the name of the Lord be praised!
