Welcome To His People From Pastor Al Wright
God desires our worship. He wants us to come into His presence with our praise, our prayers and our proclamation of His Word. It is the most grand privilege of the people of God to enter into the presence of God for the purpose of giving praise to God. And the praise of God is the focus for us as the people of God in this place when we enter into worship. We want in our worship to be Psalm 115 [+/-]Psalm 115
[115:1]Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to your name
give glory,
for the sake of your steadfast love and your
faithfulness!
[2]Why should the nations say,
"Where is their God?"
[3]Our God is in the heavens;
he does all that he pleases.
[4]Their idols are silver and gold,
the work of human hands.
[5]They have mouths, but do not speak;
eyes, but do not see.
[6]They have ears, but do not hear;
noses, but do not smell.
[7]They have hands, but do not feel;
feet, but do not walk;
and they do not make a sound in their throat.
[8]Those who make them become like them;
so do all who trust in them.
[9]O Israel, trust in the LORD!
He is their help and their shield.
[10]O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD!
He is their help and their shield.
[11]You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD!
He is their help and their shield.
[12]The LORD has remembered us; he will bless us;
he will bless the house of Israel;
he will bless the house of Aaron;
[13]he will bless those who fear the LORD,
both the small and the great.
[14]May the LORD give you increase,
you and your children!
[15]May you be blessed by the LORD,
who made heaven and earth!
[16]The heavens are the LORD's heavens,
but the earth he has given to the children of man.
[17]The dead do not praise the LORD,
nor do any who go down into silence.
[18]But we will bless the LORD
from this time forth and forevermore.
Praise the LORD!
people: not to us, O Lord; not to us but to your Name be the glory because of Your Love and Faithfulness.
