DEVOTION:  Psalm 67     English Standard Version (ESV)"To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. A Psalm. A Song."

67 May God be gracious to us and bless us
    and make his face to shine upon us, Selah
that your way may be known on earth,
    your saving power among all nations.
Let the peoples praise you, O God;
    let all the peoples praise you!

Let the nations be glad and sing for joy,
    for you judge the peoples with equity
    and guide the nations upon earth. Selah
Let the peoples praise you, O God;
    let all the peoples praise you!

The earth has yielded its increase;
    God, our God, shall bless us.
God shall bless us;
    let all the ends of the earth fear him!

 
"Let all the peoples praise you, O God."   This should be our prayer every day and it should start with us.  It is said that people will remember a whole lot more about what we do that what we say.  If our words are praises, but our hearts and actions aren't, what do you think others will remember?  What do you think they will think about you?  Will they want to emulate you?
 
And why should we praise God?  Should we praise him out of a sense of duty and obligation, or because of His great love and mercy for us?  Of course it is the latter.  We should praise, honor, and worship God for what He has done for us!
 
Today might be a good day to stop thinking about yourself and to start thinking about a God who loves you, forgives you, and gives you eternal life.  Once you get that in the right order, then everything else falls into place.  You will freely worship and praise God for what he has done.  It won't be a chore or an obligation.  Today is a good day to meditate on what God has done for you so that you can be grateful and so that the Holy Spirit can use both your word and your actions for His work!
 
Today is a good day to PRAISE THE LORD, FOR CHRIST IS RISEN!  He is risen indeed!  Alleluia!
 
Let us pray:  May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face to shine upon us, that your way may be known on earth, your saving power among all nations.  Let the peoples praise you, O God, let all the peoples praise you!  Amen

YESTERDAY'S  BIBLE QUIZ    Who was the director of music when David wrote the Psalms?

 

From Pat King:

Okay, you want a ONE word answer? Well, here you go, cupcake: Asaph.
 
And who was Asaph, the nosey among you may ask? Well, here's an answer (not ONE word though):
A Levite; one of the leaders of David's choir (1 Chronicles 6:39 ). Psalms 50 and 73-83 inclusive are attributed to him. He is mentioned along with David as skilled in music, and a "seer" ( 2 Chronicles 29:30 ). The "sons of Asaph," mentioned in 1 Chronicles 20:14 , and Ezra 2:41 , were his descendants, or more probably a class of poets or singers who recognized him as their master.
 
If you guys go to the Hebrew site in the link, there's a short video about him.
