Psa 81:1
To the chief Musician upon Gittith, A
Psalm of Asaph. Sing aloud unto God our strength: make a joyful
noise unto the God of Jacob.
Our God is a Great God.
Ps 95:3.
Great - H1419 גָּדֹל
גָּדוֹל gâdôl gâdôl gaw-dole',
gaw-dole'
From H1431;
great (in any sense); hence older; also insolent: - + aloud, elder (-est), + exceeding (-ly), +
far, (man of) great (man, matter, thing, -er, -ness), high, long, loud, mighty,
more, much, noble, proud thing, X sore, (´) very.
He is High, Long, Loud, Mighty, Much More, Noble… He is
worthy of all praise, honor, and glory. He
is exceeding above and is able to do exceeding and above all we can ask or
think. Sing aloud. Praise Him.
Make a joyful noise unto God.
Wide, wide as the ocean; High as the heavens above;
Deep, deep as the deepest sea is my saviors love.
I feel so unworthy, still I’m a child of His care.
For His Word teaches me that His love reaches me everywhere.
Deep, deep as the deepest sea is my saviors love.
I feel so unworthy, still I’m a child of His care.
For His Word teaches me that His love reaches me everywhere.
Sing aloud to God our strength. He is our strength.
Strength - H5797 עוֹז
עֹז ‛ôz ‛ôz oze, oze
From H5810;
strength in various applications (force, security, majesty,
praise): - boldness, loud, might, power, strength, strong.
He is our force, our security; His is majesty and praise. Because He is great, we can have
strength. We can have boldness, might,
power, and be strong.
Psa 81:2
Take a psalm, and bring hither the timbrel, the pleasant harp with the
psaltery.
A psalm here is a song that is meant for an instrument to accompany
the singing. Bring your songs and your
instruments. Sing, play, rejoice, and
praise God!
Psa 81:3
Blow up the trumpet in the new moon, in the time appointed, on our
solemn feast day.
Psa 81:4 For this was
a statute for Israel, and a law of the
God of Jacob.
Statute - H2706 חֹק chôq khoke
From H2710;
an enactment; hence an appointment (of time, space, quantity,
labor or usage): - appointed, bound, commandment, convenient, custom, decree (-d),
due,
law,
measure, X necessary, ordinance (-nary), portion, set time, statute,
task.
This was a statute and a law of the God of Jacob. It has been a comfort and an encouragement to
me to read scriptures where it commands that we sing and play instruments in
praise to Him. It is convenient – suitable,
useful, and fitting. It has been
commanded and is a necessary task.
The singers and the players on instruments shall be
there. Ps 87:6, 7
Blow the trumpet.
Make a clear sound. Feel free to
sing loud and with all your heart. Don’t
let others crush your song. Don’t let
the enemy crush your song. Let no man
despise thy youth, but be an example of the believers in word, in conversation
– in your actions, in your mode of life.
Psa 81:5
This he ordained in Joseph for a
testimony, when he went out through the land of Egypt: where I heard a language that I understood not.
Psa 81:6 I removed his shoulder from the burden: his
hands were delivered from the pots.
He has brought us out of bondage. He is worthy of our loud, unashamed,
praise. He delivered us from a way that
is unintelligible and insane.
Insane - 1. Unsound in mind or intellect; mad; deranged in
mind; delirious; distracted.
Insanity is wrong thinking, unreasonable thinking. Self-pity has insanity or wrong thinking that
goes with it. It will cause you to think
that no one understands you and everyone is against you. It will paint a picture that is false and
cause you to believe it. It will blind
your eyes to what is real and important and to what is your responsibility to
take care of.
Rebellion has insanity that goes with it. All The ways of the world are out of
course. Psalms 82:5
He brought us out from where we were surrounded by thinking
and immersed in thinking that was not understandable. He removed our shoulder from the burden that
we were carrying. He freed us from the
guilt of sin. He brought us up out of
the horrible pit and set our feet in a large spot on the rock. He established our goings. Psalms 40:2.
Ps 118:5
Psa 81:7
Thou calledst in trouble, and I delivered thee; I answered thee in the
secret place of thunder: I proved thee at the waters of Meribah. Selah.
When we called to Him, in our distress, He heard us and
answered. He saved our soul.
Delivered - H2502 חָלַץ châlats khaw-lats'
A primitive root; to pull off; hence
(intensively) to strip, (reflexively) to depart; by implication
to deliver, equip (for fight); present, strengthen: - arm
(self), (go, ready) armed (X man, soldier), deliver, draw out, make fat, loose,
(ready) prepared, put off, take away, withdraw self.
He equipped us to be able to fight the enemy. He strengthened, armed, delivered, prepared,
and loosed us. We called in our labor
and bondage, under the cruel taskmasters of sin, and He heard us, delivered us,
and is proving and perfecting us.
Psa 81:8
Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto thee: O Israel, if thou wilt
hearken unto me;
Hear and I will tell you again. I will charge you and give you warning, if
you will harken unto me.
Psa 81:9
There shall no strange god be in thee; neither shalt thou worship any
strange god.
Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart and Him
only shalt thou serve. Mark 12:29, 30.
Matt 4:10.
Psa 81:10 I am
the LORD thy God, which brought thee out of the land of Egypt: open thy mouth
wide, and I will fill it.
The Eternal One, the Great God, He it is that has delivered
us. He will abundantly satisfy our every
desire. As a little bird in the nest
opens his mouth as his mother or father approaches. Speak your desires. Open wide your mouth. Make your requests for good things. Ask largely.
Bring forth your strong arguments.
Isaiah 41:21. Matt 7:7, 8
Psa 81:11 But my people would not hearken to my voice;
and Israel would none of me.
Psa 81:12 So I gave them up unto their own hearts'
lust: and they walked in their own
counsels.
Psa 81:13 Oh that my people had hearkened unto me, and Israel had walked in my ways!
Psa 81:14 I should soon have subdued their enemies, and
turned my hand against their adversaries.
God’s promise to us if we will hearken and walk in His ways
is that He will subdue our enemies. He
will give us victory. He will deliver us
from our adversaries. Is there a giant
that we are battling in our personal or spiritual life? Jesus fought the battle through and gives to
us the victory.
As Brother Gary brought.
He is the white horse rider that goes forth conquering and to conquer.
Revelations 6:2
If we will seek and hear His voice and walk in His ways, He
will soon subdue our enemies.
Psa 81:15 The haters of the LORD should have submitted
themselves unto him: but their time should have endured for ever.
He has a plan for the souls that hate Him. That they would submit to Him. He is not desirous that any be lost but that
all should come to repentance. Every
knee shall bow and every tongue confess that He is Lord of lords. 2 Peter 3:9.
Romans 14:11-13
Psa 81:16 He should have fed them also with the finest
of the wheat: and with honey out of the rock should I have satisfied thee.
He has the finest portion to give us from what the world has
to offer. What He offers will
satisfy.
