The Belt of Truth: Psalm 148

Psalm 148 continues the praise of the Lord! Two areas are focused in on. The heavens in verses 1-6 and all that is in them. And then the earth in verses 7-14. 

This praise from the heavens is automatic and is styled like how God spoke and they came to be. As the heavens and the angels do their job, they praise God. They are well ordered because God’s Word is holy and true. 

The earth and all that is down below praises God as well. But this praise originates in how God reveals himself on earth. He acts in human history. Primarily when he raised a horn of salvation for his people, which all nations can come to. This is the Lord Jesus, whose name is given that is above every name and exalted beyond the earth and heavens. 

With this in mind, what our God has done for us, we cry out, “Praise the Lord!” Hallelujah!
