Week 13: The Praise and Refuge of the King

Psalms 146–150 form the grand finale of the Psalter, each beginning and ending with the cry, “Praise the LORD!” Together, they declare that the Lord is the unchanging refuge of His people and the rightful object of all creation’s worship. These psalms call us to trust in God rather than human powers, to align our lives with His Kingdom priorities, and to join in the unending chorus of praise that will one day fill the new creation. From His care for the vulnerable to His reign over the nations, from the gathering of His people to the universal call for every creature to worship, these closing songs lift our eyes to the King who reigns forever and invite us to live each day in joyful submission to Him.
