Devotion:
Read Psalm 92:1-8.
Two words stick out to me in this passage, both found in verse two: love and faithfulness. God’s love and faithfulness are what causes us to want to sing our praises as we worship our Lord. Though God’s people so often have proven not to be faithful to the covenant God established with Abraham, God has continued to be faithful. Of course, that was shown most fully through the work of Jesus Christ among us. In Jesus, we see the depth of the love and faithfulness of God.
Therefore, as the people who seek to represent this God, we are called to show love and faithfulness to those around us. We are to allow these attributes to grow and deepen in us, so that we can lead others to experience and know our Lord. Our faithfulness in worshiping God together as the Church and worshiping God through how we live our lives reveals that we belong to this God of faithfulness. Our love for God and for other people reveals that we belong to this God of love.
Tell everyone you can, in all the ways you can, about the God of love and faithfulness. And live your life so that they can see that this God has had an effect on you.
