This psalm begins and ends with a self-invitation to bless the LORD.
Why should I bless the LORD? Here the psalmist lists a few of the benefits of knowing God:
- his holy name
- his forgiveness
- his healing
- his rescue from death
- his faithfulness and mercy during life
- his justice to the oppressed
- his revelation of his will
- his remembering that we are dust
Who should bless the LORD? Those invisible (angels and hosts) and visible (his works = creation).
Where should we bless the LORD? In all places of his dominion = everywhere.
LORD, we bless you today. We praise you for who you are, what you have done, and why that matters to us.
Psalm 103
