I am using the daily Bible reading schedule from “The Bible.net” for my daily Bible reading.

Today, I am reading and commenting on Psalms 98-104.

    Yes, let us sing to the Lord! He has announced His righteousness to everyone, no one has an excuse. All of the earth will praise the Lord because He is coming to judge. When He does so He will judge with justice and righteousness. Sing, shout, clap, express your love of the Lord however you are able. Every time I read Psalm 101 I am struck by what a great guide for our lives it is. Here is the list (there is some overlap)

• Be careful to live a blameless life.
• Lead a life of integrity, even in private.
• refuse to look at anything vile or vulgar.
• Have nothing to do with those who deal crookedly
• Reject perverse ideas and stay away from every evil.
• Do not tolerate slander, conceit, or pride.

But that is not the whole of it, the “do nots” aren’t really the important part. No, the most important part for living a fulfilling life is seeking out faithful people to hang out with. The more time you spend with people who strive to serve the Lord, the more you will serve the Lord.

    In Psalm 102:18 the psalmist reminds us how important it is to record what God has done in our lives. But not just what He does in our lives, we need to record what God has done in the world around us and we need to make a record of the actions of God’s people which we witness. The purpose of keeping records is so that those who have not yet been born will know what God has done and praise Him for it.

    I will conclude today’s post by saying with the psalmist, “Let all that I am praise the Lord.”
