Meditate on verse 2.
Sing to the LORD; bless His name;

Psalm 96 answers many questions about worship.
Who is to worship?
• All the earth (v. 1, 9)
• Families of the peoples (v. 7)
What is worship?
• Singing a new song to the LORD (v. 1)
• Blessing His name and proclaiming good tidings of His salvation (v. 2)
• Telling of His glory and wonderful deeds (v. 3)
• Ascribing to God glory and strength, the glory of His name (vs. 7-8)
• Bringing an offering and coming to His courts (v. 8)
Where does worship take place?
• Among the nations and all the peoples (v. 3)
• In His courts (v. 8)
When is worship?
• From day to day (v. 2)
Why worship the LORD?
• He is great, greatly to be praised, and to be feared above all gods (v. 4).
• He made the heavens (v. 5).
• Splendor, majesty, strength, and beauty are before Him and in His sanctuary (v. 6).
• He is coming to judge the earth, the world, and the peoples in righteousness and faithfulness (v. 13).
How do you worship?
• Trembling before Him in holy attire (v. 9) “Put on the LORD Jesus Christ ...” (Romans 13:14).
• By saying, “The LORD reigns; indeed the world is firmly established; it will not be moved. He will judge the peoples with equity” (v. 10).
The heavens, earth, sea and all it contains, field and all that is in it, and all the trees of the forest are worshipping the LORD (vs. 11-12). Join them by starting your worship with Psalm 96:4a.
“LORD, You are great and greatly to be praised ...”
Continue to worship all day, everyday.
