Trusting God to Do Everything Well: Praying Psalm 33:1-5

Let the godly sing for joy to the Lord; it is fitting for the pure to praise him.

Heavenly Father, though I don’t have an awesome singing voice, I do trust an awesome gospel. I am godly only because you have hidden my life in Christ, and I am pure only because you have robed me in the righteousness of Jesus—for which I am profoundly grateful. At least my heart can sing with great volume and robust joy.

Praise the Lord with melodies on the lyre; make music for him on the ten-stringed harp. Sing a new song of praise to him; play skillfully on the harp, and sing with joy.

Father, you are the quintessential artist, and you have given us the gift of music and gifted musicians to express our love to you, and deepen our enjoyment of you. For the arts and the artists in our communities, we praise, bless, and adore you.

For the word of the Lord holds true, and we can trust everything he does.

What really fuels my worship this today, is this reminder of the truth of your Word and the trustworthiness of your heart. Though we’ve experienced the pain of betrayal and broken trust, you remain trustworthy—all the time in every way. Though we don’t understand everything you do, we can trust you with all things—our past regrets, present challenges, and uncertain future.

Though we often wish you’d adjust your timeline to fit our druthers, we can trust you are doing all things well. Though we’ll only understand some things in heaven, we can totally rely on you now. Great is your faithfulness, endless your mercies, more-than-sufficient your grace.

He loves whatever is just and good; the unfailing love of the Lord fills the earth.

Father, though we can’t see it with the natural eye, your unfailing love is orchestrating and controlling every aspect of our lives, and one Day your justice and goodness will completely fill the earth. Hasten the Day, Lord; hasten that Day. Until then, fuel our joy and strengthen our trust. So very amen we pray, in Jesus’ triumphant and tender name.
