Psalm 100 - The Lord is God, the Lord is good.

Yet another Psalm calling on all creation to praise the Lord. Note that again it is a shout for joy that is called for. The world continues to peddle the lie that God's aim is to make men miserable, and too often the church has colluded in this lie. Indeed this is the lie that the Devil told to Eve in the Garden of Eden (Gen 3:1-4). Nothing could be further from the truth. Joy is the fruit of the Holy Spirit. 
The fundamental truth is that we were created by God and belong to Him. We are the sheep of His pasture. Ie it is He who looks after us and watches over us. See how vehemently atheism seeks to deny this truth. 
Instead we are far wiser to accept the truth and enter His gates with thanksgiving and praise. 
He is good, His love endures, and His faithfulness continues forever. What ever our situation we should seek the Lord and go to Him with praise. We will then be pleasantly surprised at what we find!
