Psalms 100 — Make a Joyful Noise Unto the Lord, All Ye Lands

Summary

Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands. Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

Key verse

Verse-by-verse
3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

Not we ourselves. The verse cures self-made-man theology. He made us.

We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Identity by belonging, not by achievement.

5 For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

Three attributes — good, merciful, true. Each one durable forever.

A pattern for thanksgiving. Speak these three back to Him.
