DISCOVER TO PROCLAIM – Psalm 145 – 11-9-25

The crescendo of the Psalter begins with Psalm 145 and continues to build with each of the remaining songs! This is the last titled song of David in the book and is a profound and powerful contribution to the grand finale of histories’s greatest album. This is The 7th of the acrostic psalms (each parallel line beginning with a consecutive letter of the Hebrew alphabet).  This form of poetry conveys a glorious and comprehensive beauty, symmetry, & order.   Verse 4 reveals a purpose for writing this song that is key to understanding, in part, the intent of Biblical poetry.  This verse could well serve as a vision statement for the entire Psalter. Let the writers compose, the musicians play, and the people sing, that one generation might commend God's works to another and declare His mighty acts! These are songs of praise immortalizing a generational testimony of the greatness of Yahweh —-Furthermore, this song provides a template for proclaiming the deeds of the Lord.
