Psalm 149
What are the effects and powers of praise? Praises to God has an effect on God, an effect on the praiser, an effect of the enemies of God, and an effect on the enemies of God's people. Praise is a two-edged sword that executes judgement. It binds demonic kings in chains. It executes the written judgment.  A casual reader will look at this and think that we are to destroy the enemies with physical warfare. But this psalm is about the power of a spiritual sword. The Bible uses praise as a sword. Unlike Islam which talks of Jihad and often means a physical war. We are to praise and to trust that our words are executing the judgment that God has written.

Lord you are Good and your mercy endures forever

Psalm 148
This is a Psalm written by the Sons of Korah. I love these guys! I also love Asaph's psalms. Moses' Psalms. And of course the Psalms written by Solomon and David. I'm not really up on the sons of Korah - I pass over them whenever I'm in the historical books without really taking the time to do an indepth study of them. Same thing with Asaph. And yet! What a family, uh?Their insight in this psalm is that all things are able to praise God. Things spiritual, things organic, things inorganic. Psalm 148 1Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights. 2Praise ye him, all

Yeah, they're misogynist...not my fault. Am hoping his rhymes mature. Please, God!
