PSALM 115

TO YOUR NAME GIVE GLORY

God’s name deserves glory above any other name. When the Israelites are confronted with having an invisible God, their response is that He resides in the heavens and does as He pleases.

False gods may be visible, but they are worthless and created only by the work of human hands. Those who worship false gods become like their idols, worthless and ineffective.

Israel is challenged to worship God alone, trusting in Him as their help and their shield. God has previously blessed Israel and He will continue to bless those who fear Him in awe and reverence.

Psalm 115:1 ESV - "Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory, for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness!"
