Sing to the Lord a new song! The Lord is great!

"Sing to the Lord a new song!" (Psalm 96:1).
Singing a new song to the Lord - What does this mean?  Does it mean that we should stop singing songs that were written a long time ago? Does it mean that we should only songs that have just been written? Singing a new song to the Lord - Let's think a bit more deeply about this. God has given us "a new heart" (Ezekiel 36:26).  Let us sing to him - from a new heart. Then, our song will be a new song - even if the words we sing have been around for many years.

"The Lord is great!" (Psalm 96:4).
Think of the greatness of God. Think, especially, of the greatness of his love. He loves us with "an everlasting love" (Jeremiah 31:3). This is the greatest love. This is the best love - the everlasting love of God.

"I am filled with the power of the Lord's Spirit" (Micah 3:8). This is what makes true ministry of God's Word so different from 'prophecy' that doesn't come from the Lord. Without the power of the Lord, there can be no Word from the Lord. We need the Word, and we need the power. "Let's go to the mountain of the Lord ...He will teach us His ways so that we may live by them" (Micah 4:2). We are taught by the Lord so that we might live for Him. Teaching and living - they belong together. We do not learn from God's Word so that we can amass more head-knowledge. We pray for a saving knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ - a life-changing knowledge that gives us the strength that we need to live for the glory of God.
