“Sing to God, sing praises to His Name; extol Him who rides on the clouds, by His Name Yah, and rejoice before Him. A father of the fatherless, a defender of widows, is God in His holy habitation.” [2]
The Lord rides on the clouds means that He is above all else. But what does the Most High do? He is a father for fatherless children. He defends husbandless wives. He fills relational gaps with power and wisdom. Let us sing praises to God for His love, kindness, and grace.
“Blessed be the Lord, who daily loads us with benefits, the God of our salvation! Selah! Our God is the God of salvation; and to God the Lord belong escapes from death.” “Bless God in the congregations.” [3]
Let us sing praises to God for saving us. Let us join our faces and voices with others who sing praises to Him so that His praise is glorious.
“The God of Israel is He who gives strength and power to His people.” [4]
Let us sing to the Lord for strengthening and empowering us!
“I will praise the Name of God with a song and will magnify Him with thanksgiving. This also shall please the Lord better than an ox or bull, which has horns and hooves.” [5]
Praising God with song, magnifying and giving Him thanks pleases Him so let us do it. He does so much for us.
“Declare His glory among the nations, His marvelous works among all the peoples!” [6]
Our songs have Biblical truths that set people free even as we profess them joyfully unto God! Our singing harmoniously unto God is a testimony of His greatness unto all who join with us.
“O magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt His Name together.” [7]
