Psalm Genres (Part Five): Psalms of Praise

Sermon by Richard T. Ritenbaugh

Psalm 100, a concise yet powerful hymn of praise, exemplifies the structure and essence of psalms dedicated to glorifying God. This short psalm, spanning only five verses, stands as the final in a series of six praise songs from Psalm 95 to 100. It opens with a vibrant call to worship in verses 1 and 2, urging all lands to make a joyful shout to the Lord, serve Him with gladness, and come before His presence with singing. This invitation extends to all people, emphasizing worship with joy and song as the ideal approach to God, reflecting the positivity and gratitude that His faithfulness inspires. In verse 3, the psalm highlights God's praiseworthy deeds and qualities, affirming His sovereignty as God Most High, His role as Creator who made us, and His intimate care as the shepherd of His chosen people. These attributes underscore His worthiness, revealing why He deserves honor and glory for His supreme authority, creative power, and tender guidance over those He has called. The concluding call to praise in verse 4 reinforces the initial summons, encouraging entry into His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise, urging thankfulness and blessing of His name. This restatement emphasizes continual gratitude, not just in formal worship but at all times, recognizing His constant goodness. Finally, verse 5 extends beyond the typical structure, offering a coda of additional reasons for praise: the Lord is good, His mercy is everlasting, and His truth endures to all generations. This final thought leaves a lasting impression of His unchanging, loving character, affirming that His covenant kindness and reliability are eternal, compelling endless praise for His consistent benevolence and enduring presence.
