Hey Church!

This weekend, I want to simply encourage you to meditate on Psalm 95. Let it be a model of the way we are meant to feel about going to church. The psalmist says that God holds us as His sheep in the same hand He used to form the heights and depths of the earth. That vision ought to so stir up your soul that you can’t help but burst out with joyful singing! Bring your loudest, most joyful noise this Sunday! 

Fernando Ortega wrote a song based on the Psalm, “Come, Let Us Worship (Psalm 95:6, 7),” which you can listen to here:

Psalm 95

“Oh come, let us sing to the Lord;
    let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!
Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving;
    let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!
For the Lord is a great God,
    and a great King above all gods.
In his hand are the depths of the earth;
    the heights of the mountains are his also.
The sea is his, for he made it,
    and his hands formed the dry land.
Oh come, let us worship and bow down;
    let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!
For he is our God,
    and we are the people of his pasture,
    and the sheep of his hand.
Today, if you hear his voice, 
do not harden your hearts…”
