Psalm 98:4
“Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.”
KJV
Read in Psalm 98Meaning
The response to God's saving work becomes global celebration. The invitation is expansive rather than coercive.
All the earth praises the King
Voice and instruments express joyful worship before the LORD as King.
Read carefully
The verse celebrates exuberant praise but does not make volume a test of faith.
Reflection
Remember that praise belongs to a larger community than your immediate setting.
