The one, true, living God

Psalm 115
Our God is in heaven; he does whatever please him.
But their idols are silver and gold made by the hands of men. Those who make them will be like them, and so will all who trust in them.
You who fear him, trust in the Lord - he is their help and shield.
God will bless those who fear the Lord - small and great alike.
May the Lord make you increase, both you and your children.
The one, true, living God
This psalm gives an indication of the way many psalms must have been sung - with a single voice leading and the congregation joining in the response. A powerful contrast is drawn between God - almighty, loving, faithful - and the lifeless, impotent idols of ' the nations'. From the response of trust and confidence in God's blessing the psalm comes full circle back to God and his people.
Why?
Our God is the true God, who does whatever please him. But the idols could not speak, smell and walk. Trust the living God who listen my prayer and loves us.
The Lord is my help and my shield. God is my hope and my fortress.
God makes us increase and prosperity in my home and my work.
How?
Praise the Lord, give thanks to the Lord!
