"Glory!"

January 19, 2020 • Pastor Jeff Beckett • Psalm 115

Here in the midst of the Hallel, a cry is made for God to be glorified. In fact, the entire Psalms is summed up in its first verse … a prayer that we get out of the way and ensure that God receives all glory due Him. But Psalms 115 is a little extra special, since it is widely believed that it is what Jesus and his disciples sang just before he went out to Gethsemane. The word glory used here means “heavy” or “weighty” and is associated with the idea of honor. In other words, as we measure our choices and what we treasure are we certain all glory is pointed at God.
