Dr. Lance Watson - “Tracing Thanksgiving Treasures- The Saint Paul’s Baptist Church – 11/26/2023

Psalm 100 tells us to shout it out. Many of us were brought up being told to do just the opposite: “Keep your voices down.” “Keep it under control.” “Don’t raise a ruckus.” Maybe you’ve told your kids—or the kids in your Sunday School class—the same thing. But when it comes to thanking God, Psalm 100 claims that it’s very appropriate to turn up the volume. These five verses roar with praise, employing a series of imperative verbs: shout (verse 1), worship (verse 2), enter (verses 2, 4), praise (verse 4), bless (verse 4). Taken together, these commands compel the community to participate in a high liturgical activity, namely, singing in a grand procession into God’s temple—tracing thanksgiving treasures.
