“A Psalm of Praise” Psalm 95 January 7, 2024 Pastor John Choi  Sermon Application [file]    ----more---- Psalm 95:1 Oh come, let us sing to the Lord; let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation!  2 Let us come into his presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to him with songs of praise!  3 For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods. 4 In his hand are the depths of the earth; the heights of the mountains are his also.  5 The sea is his, for he made it, and his hands formed the dry land.  6 Oh come, let us worship and bow down; let us kneel before the Lord, our Maker!  7 For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. Today, if you hear his voice, 8 do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah, as on the day at Massah in the wilderness, 9 when your fathers put me to the test and put me to the proof, though they had seen my work.  10 For forty years I loathed that generation and said, “They are a people who go astray in their heart, and they have not known my ways.”  11 Therefore I swore in my wrath, “They shall not enter my rest.” Come, let us give joyful praise to our great God with our words and our lives.      I.  A Call to Give Praise (1-2)  II.  Reason for Praise (3-5) III.  Delight from Praise (6-7c)  IV.  A Life of Praise (7d-11)
