Psalm 115:18
“But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the Lord.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 115Meaning
The psalm closes not in fear but in communal praise that extends beyond the immediate moment.
Blessing, stewardship, and continuing praise
The psalm moves from remembered blessing to inclusive blessing, stewardship of earth, and the living community's resolve to praise.
Read carefully
The preceding verse explicitly acknowledges mortality; continuing praise describes allegiance, not immunity from suffering or death.
