Yes, Let's!

As many of you know - or have read - Mr. Bill is quite a character.  Whenever I tell him to do something, a common response is, “And why do I want to do this?”  This response usually stuns me momentarily, and it rarely occurs to me to just say, “because I said so.”

 

Psalm 95 issues a series of encouraging invitations to Believers: “Come, let us sing unto the LORD (V.1)  Let us make a joyful noise to the Rock of our Salvation (V.1)  Let us come before His Presence with thanksgiving (V.2)  Make a joyful noise unto Him with psalms (V.2)  O Come, let us worship and bow down (V.6)  Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker (V6). “And, the psalmist doesn't leave to our imagination why we do these things: “For the LORD is a great God (V.3)  A great King above all gods (V.3)  For He is our God (V.7)  We are the people of His pasture (V.7)  The Sheep of His hand (V.7).” How quick-and-easy we seem to show appreciation for a kindness done, give adoration and praise to a job well done, or show affection to a loved one.  In contrast, how little and infrequently we sing of, rejoice in, or meditate on the Greatness of the LORD.  Yes, I agree -- let's!  Let's together  in unity  respond to the psalmist's invitation to give glory to the LORD.  Let's do it now it now, do it today, and do it often!
