“Shout to the Lord, all the earth; break out in praise and sing for joy!” (Psalm 98:4 NLT)

From: April 27, 2014

This psalm is a call to worship. It announces God’s victory and coming justice. After inviting believers to shout, sing, and play all kinds of musical instruments, it also encourages the earth itself to join in praise. The rivers are to “clap” and the hills to “sing.” All creatures and creation itself are instructed to join in worship of the Creator. Who will answer this call?

He tells him that from now on, starting today, you’ll be with Me.
