A Song About Restoring Creation's Order

The Songs of Our Savior

Preached by: Phill Howell | 07/28/24

Scripture/Text: Psalm 104:1-35; Psalm 104 is a God-inspired poem meditating on the creation account from Genesis. In this sermon, Pastor Phill illustrates the structure of this Psalm by comparing and contrasting it with the order of the first seven days of creation. By celebrating and affirming the order of creation, this psalm teaches us to go outside and enjoy the goodness of creation. It celebrates that God created a people, a place, and gave His presence to dwell in this world. Yet, Jesus has come to provide the world with final rest through His death, resurrection, and promised return to renew all creation. All of this leads us to sing the famous lyric, "Allelujah" (Praise the LORD).
