What does Psalm 100 teach us about our relationship with God?

How to praise Him?

“Shout joyfully to the Lord, all the earth. Come before His presence with joyful singing." 

How to serve Him?

Serve the Lord with gladness and delight; 

How to understand your identity in Him?

Know and fully recognize with gratitude that the Lord Himself is God; It is He who has made us, not we [and we are His]. We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. 

We need to thank Him.

Enter His gates with a song of thanksgiving And His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, bless and praise His name. 

Why?

"For the Lord is good; His mercy and lovingkindness are everlasting, His faithfulness [endures] to all generations.”

God has all the answers to the questions about life.

We are so full of questions all the time. The Bible has the answers to all our questions for this life and beyond. Only when we seek God will we find all the answers. 

God heals us through the Holy Spirit to overcome all stress, worries and suicidal thoughts. 

I was burdened today for some reason. I did not know why. An old minister had gone to be with the Lord, and my family wanted to go today itself. I had planned for tomorrow. Reluctantly I left. As I entered the church, I was indifferent about the surroundings. A few ministers were singing as the body lay in a mobile mortuary. Sitting down for a few minutes, I was encouraged to pray in the Spirit. The Spirit of God immediately refreshed my soul, and I began to pray for the ministry of this old servant. I left in an hour rejoicing and glad in the Lord. 

God is for us. Not against us. Do not let the devil twist your mind concerning His word. We are currently in a mighty battle. Evil is abounding, yet, God’s grace is exceeding abundant. Prepare to meet Jesus. Praise God, and Amen!
