Psalm 66

This psalm reminds me of Matthew 5.13-16. It is the idea of telling the world about God without using words because of the godly lifestyle we live (1 Peter 3.1-6).

It is inviting us to come and see that the Lord is God. This psalm focuses on whom God is and what He has done for His people. The psalmist invites us, all people of the earth, to worship God with him:

  • Verses 1–4-Come and shout God’s glory. Pause, reflect (Selah), on what and who the Lord is.
  • Verses 5–7-Come and see God’s gracious work. Pause, reflect (Selah), on what the Lord has done. We are to reflect on the past to glorify Him and to grow in faith for what must be done today and in the future.
  • Verses 8–15-Come and be blessed and be a blessing. Pause, reflect (Selah), on what God can do for and through us.
  • Verses 16–20-Come and hear the testimony of God’s work in people’s lives. Has what God has done for you reached the ears of those around you? Is your life a walking testimony of who He is and of what He has done for you and through you? The beginning of this type of life, the life He created for you to live, is to come to Him in repentance, prayer, and study of His Word.

This is the story of the woman at the well when she met Jesus. After speaking with Him, she left to her town and declared “Come and See” (John 4.28-30, 39-42).

  1. It is important for us to share with others what God has done for us and how he Has worked in our lives. In this way, we would be revealing His glory and greatness to those who don’t know Him.
    We also need to praise God in everything we do and glorify Him through our work, because He is worthy of that from us.
