Praise The Lord!

In this episode of Arise + Abide, Curtis and Sally read and reflect on Psalm 135—a song of worship that calls all who serve the Lord to praise Him for His goodness, power, and enduring love. From creation to deliverance, the psalm recounts God’s mighty works, contrasting His living presence with the lifeless idols made by human hands.

Curtis shares how the psalm’s repeated invitation to “praise the Lord” reminds us to glorify God in every circumstance—remembering His faithfulness through all generations. Sally explores the deep contrast between a living relationship with the Creator and the emptiness of false treasures that cannot see, speak, or hear. Together, they reflect on how God’s Spirit continually reminds us of His justice, compassion, and the victories He brings even when we don’t yet see them.

Psalm 135 reminds us that God’s name endures forever, His compassion reaches His servants, and His justice is sure. Through praise and remembrance, we draw near to the living God who reigns with power and love across all time.
