“Sing to the Lord, all the earth; Proclaim good tidings of His salvation from day to day. Tell of His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all the peoples.” - 1 Chronicles 16:23-24 (NASB)
Our verse today comes from the song sung on the day King David brought the Ark of the Covenant of God into Jerusalem. The whole context is important because it provides an understanding of how God was honored and worshiped because of the “wonderful deeds which He has done,” (v.12). It is an example for us to remember to praise the Lord with thankfulness for all he has done for us. And it is also a reminder of God’s purpose in creation and salvation that He is to be glorified. Our promise today can be seen throughout the song (v. 8-36) as it affirms God’s good work that He has done. And, He promises to continue to do for us out of His lovingkindness which is forever. We read this affirmation, “Let the heart of those who seek the Lord be glad.” Let’s focus on that today, being glad because of the wonders and love bestowed upon us who “seek the Lord and His strength and seek His face continually.” (v. 11)
