Adoring God In 1 Chronicles 16

Thank God for What He Has Done

The ark of the covenant features
prominently in Chronicles being
mentioned more than 40 times.
And the events surrounding the
journey of the ark to Jerusalem
consumes 1Chr 13-15 & 3 months
elapse before the journey can be
completed. But when the ark is at
last installed in Jerusalem, David
leads the pple in national celebratn.

Lord, thanks for what You’ve done:
So they brought the ark of God
and set it in the midst of the
tabernacle that David had erected
for it. Then they offered burnt
offerings & peace offerings before
God. And David blessed the people
in the name of the Lord(1Chr 16:1-2)
On that day David first delivered
this psalm to thank the Lord:
Oh give thanks to the Lord!
Call upon His name; make known
His deeds among the peoples!
Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him!
Talk of all His wondrous works!…
Remember His marvellous works
which He has done (v8-12).
Remember His covenant forever…
the covenant which He made with
Abraham, and His oath to Isaac,
and confirmed to Jacob for a
statute, to Israel for an everlasting
covenant, saying: To you I will
give the land of Canaan (v15-18).

O Lord my God!
When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the world
Thy hands have made,
I see the stars,
I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout
the universe displayed,
Then sings my soul
My Saviour God to Thee:
How great Thou art! (x2)
Then sings my soul,
My Saviour God to Thee;
How great Thou art! (x2) Amen.

Praise Ye the Lord, the Almighty,
the King of creation!
O my soul, praise Him,
for He is thy health & salvation!
All Ye who hear,
now to His temple draw near;
Join me in glad adoration!
Praise to the Lord, who o’er all
things so wondrously reigneth;
Shields thee under His wings,
yea so gently sustaineth!
Hast thou not seen how
thy desires e’er have been
Granted in what He ordaineth.Amen

To God be the glory
great things He Hath Done!
So loved He the world
that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life
an atonement for sin,
And open the life-gate
that all may go in.
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the earth hear His voice!
Praise the Lord, praise the Lord,
Let the people rejoice!
O come to the Father
through Jesus the Son,
And give Him the glory
Great things He Hath Done! Amen
