A Month of Hallelujahs! Scott Pauley

As we begin the month that culminates with Thanksgiving wouldn’t it be a wonderful thing if we could make the whole month a month of praise? The great Bible word hallelujah means “praise ye the Lord” and it is found throughout Scripture. In fact, the last five Psalms are known as “the Hallelujah chorus.” Psalm 146-150 all begin and end with “PRAISE ye the LORD.”

A couple of years ago I had the thrill of preaching through these psalms during a Thanksgiving week revival. The principles of praise are good for every season of life. This November we are posting one of these “Hallelujah Chorus” messages each week. The first is now available on our YouTube channel and the rest will follow…

  • Psalm 150 – Holy Hallelujahs
  • Psalm 146 – Where Hallelujah Begins
  • Psalm 147 – The Hallelujah Witness
  • Psalm 148 – Hallelujahs in the Home
  • Psalm 149 – The Power of a Hallelujah

I hope you will take the time to meditate and pray your way through these psalms over the coming days. Open your copy of the Scriptures and read them aloud on your knees. Then join us each week as we look at these powerful psalms. You will meet God in the place of praise.

Praying that God will give you a month of Hallelujahs…

A journey through 1 John reveals our place in the family of God, how we can have assurance, and that our joy is rooted in Christ.

Journey through 1 John

“Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! Nathanael saith unto him, Whence knowest thou me? Jesus answered and said unto him, Before that Philip called thee, when thou wast under the fig tree, I saw thee.” (John 1:47-48)

Why the Story of Nathanael Sitting Under the Fig Tree Matters

It also discusses the Four Sermons in Haggai It is in that context that God raises up the prophet Haggai with four sermons in four months. The Word of the Lord comes to Haggai, and he preaches four sermons. Each one of them is dated for us. Each sermon targets a different problem. You can read them in Haggai chapters one and two. In his first sermon (Haggai 1:1-15), Haggai preached on the danger of waiting when we should be working. They were waiting for a sign to build. He said, You don't need a sign, you need to obey God. Haggai's second sermon (Haggai 2:1-9) explained the danger of lamenting the past and missing the present. They were sorrowing over the destruction of the past temple. God said, Build a new one. It was G. Campbell Morgan who said, “It is impossible to unlock the present with the rusty key of the past." Many people are bogged down in their past and miss the present. Keep in mind what is at hand and what is ahead. The third sermon he preached (Haggai 2:10-19) described the danger of seeing only the material and neglecting the supernatural. They could see the work that needed to be done, but they missed the fact that God had resources that would help them get it done. The Lord was behind all of this. The fourth sermon (Haggai 2:20-23) warned against the danger of recognizing who is against us and forgetting who is for us. They were concentrating on the opposition and forgetting that “greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). A journey through Haggai shows us the importance of performing the work that God has told us to do, and His glory in our obedience. Image leads to an overview of Haggai
