"See, Rejoice, Glory"

“See, Rejoice, Glory”

Blessings folk!

The Psalmist continues in Psalm 106.

He calls to the Lord for something.
Note what it is.
Then note “why”.

Psa 106:4

Remember me, O LORD, in Your favor toward Your people;
Visit me with Your salvation,
That I may see the prosperity of Your chosen ones,
That I may rejoice in the gladness of Your nation,
That I may glory with Your inheritance.


The Psalmist asks the Lord to “remember me”.
He desired the salvation of the Lord.
To what purpose?

That he might…

  • see the prosperity of the Lord’s chosen ones
  • rejoice in the gladness of the Lord’s nation
  • glory with the Lord’s inheritance

The Psalmist was requesting/viewing all this from the perspective of the nation of the Israel, the chosen of the Lord.

We as true believers have an even greater inheritance.

May we inquire of the Lord in like manner.
May we seek the prosperity of His chosen ones….Israel and the church.
May we rejoice in the gladness of His nation…Israel and the church.
May we glory in His inheritance…salvation that we have and that is yet to come.
