Ps. 98:2, 4
"The Lord has made His salvation known and revealed His righteousness to the nations.... Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth"
The psalmist was deeply aware that God's redemptive acts on Israel's behalf were also played out on a stage before the nations. Israel, called to be a kingdom of priests, had the privilege and responsibility of interpreting these acts to the surrounding peoples. We who have come to know Jesus as Savior and Lord have the same privilege and responsibility, made greater by our knowledge of the completeness of Christ's redemptive work on the cross. What a delight to declare His acts to the nations so that they may respond with joy to their Master!
Father, open our lips to tell others of Your salvation and righteousness.
