Psalm 103
-Theme: God’s
grace and loving pardon in the reverent believer’s life. Bless the LORD, O my
soul!
-Historical Insight: This is a famous Psalm of David, which
has been set to music in various ways throughout 3,000 years of world history.
-*Application* All that is within us should praise our
mighty, holy, forgiving, healing, redeeming, loving, satisfying, compassionate,
relational, patient, and righteous God. He is completely worthy, and we should give
Him ceaseless thanks for the everlasting life that He bestows on His beloved children.
Not one of His benefits should we ever forget. Why do we have a human tendency
to forget His remarkable goodness? We are but mere creatures who are here one
day and gone the next except for His salvation. Process for a few moments what
that actually means. God has established His throne in the heavens and “His
sovereignty rules over all (Psalm 103:19).” His angels, who are mighty in
strength, perform His word in complete obedience. All His heavenly hosts bless
Him in service for the purpose of completing His will. Even His works in
creation bless the LORD. Why would we not join the chorus of hallelujahs and
delight our own soul in the celebration of His omnipotence?
