Sing to the LORD a New Song

"Sing to the LORD a new song, for he has done marvelous things; his right hand and his holy arm have worked salvation for him."Psalm 98:1

This psalm of David calls us to sing of the saving acts of God upon us his people. It is a call to sing a song of celebration for all that He has done in our lives. It is a call to look back on our lives and to see where he has led us and all the miracles He has performed in our presence. It is a call to not only to visualize the marvelous things he has done in our lives, but to put them to music, to sing a new song. Music has a way of lifting us up and putting us in the heavenly places. When we sing of the goodness of the LORD and we remember all that He has done in our lives, we dwell in those heavenly places. Living in the presence of God is a cause for rejoicing in itself, but when we remind ourselves of all that God has done in our lives, from our salvation to our victories in the battles of life, there is even more cause for rejoicing. Let us dwell on all that He has done and realize that there is so much more He plans to do in our lives. That is cause for celebration! Let us sing to the LORD a new song and give Him all the glory and honor and praise that He is due today and every day of our lives.

Father, how grateful I am that I can live in Your presence! Thank You for placing in my heart a new song, a song that cannot be contained, but must find a voice. How I praise You for who You are and what You have done in my life! You deserve all the glory and honor and praise that we can muster, now and forevermore. Amen
