‘Praise
the Lord’. Psalms 146 and 147 began and ended with these words. Now, we
find the same beginning and ending in each of these three Psalms -
‘Praise the Lord’. Our personal song of praise to God - ‘Praise be to
the Lord my Rock... I will sing a new song to You, O God... I will exalt
You, my God the King; I will praise Your Name for ever and ever; Every
day I will praise You... My mouth will speak in praise of the Lord... I
will praise the Lord all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long
as I live’ (Psalm 144:1,9; Psalm 145:1-2,21; Psalm 146:2) - is just a
small part of something so much richer and fuller - ‘Let everything that
has breath praise the Lord’ (Psalm 150:6). May these great Psalms of
praise inspire us to praise the Lord more truly and more fully.
