Psalm 19:1
“The heavens are telling of the glory of God; and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.”
We welcome you to our Praise in the Park service. What a joy to worship out in the midst of God’s creation. Just a glance at the trees, sky or animals around should remind you that we have a Glorious Creator. Day by Day, we live among the midst of His work, allowing us to see His sovereign power.
Psalm 19:8-9
“The precepts of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; the judgments of the Lord are true; they are righteous altogether.”
Though we can see God’s glory in creation, we must look to another source to know God’s divine will. God has recorded His Scriptures for us, so we can see His righteousness, our sinful desires, Christ’s glorious sacrifice on the cross and His powerful resurrection, and our reception of eternal life through faith in Christ. These things can’t be seen in the trees and birds, but the Word of God clearly declares these truths.
Psalm 19:11-14
“Moreover, by them Your servant is warned; In keeping them there is great reward. Who can discern his errors? Acquit me of hidden faults. Also keep back Your servant from presumptuous sins; Let them not rule over me; Then I will be blameless, and I shall be acquitted of great transgression. Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.”
These truths are not just intended to “inform your mind.” There is a response that God expects. By faith, we rejoice in his work and can be acquitted of our sin. We then desire to proclaim this message clearly to others, directing our hearts toward our Savior, our Rock and Redeemer.
We pray that this morning is a public proclamation of the work of God in creation, in the offer of His Son for our sins, in the powerful work of resurrecting Christ and the gospel’s work in our lives--removing our guilt from sin and freeing us to serve Christ.
