Thanksgiving 2013

Psalm 111

We give thanks to God in His congregation

Question of structure v. spontaneity

We give thanks to God for His works

The works of the LORD are great (v.2)

They are so great they invite study

Studying His works leads to understanding His character

His works capture our attention

The works of the LORD are majestic (v.3)

They are so great they inspire awe 

Unless our head is so far buried, they will inspire us

His works capture our affections

The works of the LORD are remembered (v.4)

They are so great they impact consciences

God has willed this to be so and has called many to account because of it

God’s story is His demonstration of “gracious and merciful”.

Throughout the story, He’s working redemption for His people (v.9)

His works capture our allegiance
