Psalms 95, 97–99
Common Theme
These psalms proclaim the sovereign reign of the LORD over all creation and call His people to respond with reverent worship, joyful praise, and humble submission. God’s holiness, justice, and supremacy demand both awe and delight from those who know Him.
Reflection Questions
- How does recognizing God as King affect the way I worship, obey, and trust Him today?
- What does it mean to “rejoice in His holiness” (Psalm 97:12) in practical terms?
God Shot
The LORD reigns—not as a distant monarch, but as a present and powerful King whose justice, righteousness, and holiness define reality itself. He is not only exalted above all gods (Psalm 97:9), but He draws near to shepherd His people (Psalm 95:7), making His majesty both terrifying and tender.
