Intentionally Act
- Read Psalm 97.
- How might the commands of this Psalm inform how you are to live?
- How does this Psalm relate to missions? Can you find textual evidence that would compel an evangelistic or missional response to this view of God as king and judge? Where? What might this compel in you?
- How does the Psalmists reflection on the judgment of God compare to your own?
- How might you need to correct your thinking to align it with the psalmist’s response to God’s reign and judgment?
- Click the links below to find the lyrics and recordings of the songs planned for our gathering this Sunday; practice the songs, study the lyrics and sing together.
