Fr. Mike describes the miracle of the waters of Meribah that God performs for his people in the wilderness. He also explains the logic behind the laws God gives his people to restore their morality as they learn to live in relationship with each other. Today we read Numbers 19-20, Deuteronomy 21, and Psalm 100. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

Psalm 100 is a song for giving joyful praise. And behold, in honor of the 2026 FIFA World Cup now being less than 100 days away from kicking off, Soccer Psalm 100 features on the podcast this week. Soon, there will be much celebration and jubilation (and some sadness when one’s team loses) around the world’s biggest stage and tournament. I wrote Soccer Psalm 100 from the perspective of the fans — those who sit and await the match to begin. They start the party well ahead of the game. There is food and fellowship and footy happening. In the USA, we call it tailgating. In the UK, people gather at the local pub for “chippies” before a joyful march to the stadium ground. In other parts of the world, there are other, similar pre-match rituals and routines — usually expressive of joy and eager anticipation to get behind one’s team. In many ways, we await the triumphant procession and return of Jesus and the Cup Final to end all Cup Finals. Enjoy this soccer psalm for this week’s podcast. The Soccer Psalms, is a self-published book available on Amazon. (You can also find The Football Psalms-a British version-if you appreciate the different terms around the game). Both books are available globally on Amazon and contain 31 psalms that have been translated into “soccer psalms” — with words, language, and metaphors that connect soccer to God’s Word. I also include some reflection on the context and writing as well as some questions for reflection.

08 - 02 - 26 Am Les Powell Psalm 100 by Great Parks Chapel
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
Jesus did not call people to admire Him. He called them to follow Him.In this episode of Kitchen Table Theology, Pastor Jeff Cranston and Tiffany walk through three clear marks of true discipleship. Many believers know the right words, attend church consistently, and affirm sound doctrine. Yet the deeper question remains: Are we truly living as followers of Christ?This conversation examines what Jesus meant when He said, “Follow Me,” and challenges listeners to consider whether their lives reflect obedience, transformation, and love.What We Discussed02:30 Following Jesus Is More Than Intellectual AgreementJesus' call to follow Him is not merely agreement with doctrine. It's a call to obedience, surrender, and life change. Discipleship involves transformation, not just information.03:15 #1 Abiding in God's WordAbiding means staying rooted in Scripture so that it shapes decisions, priorities, convictions, and worldview. Discipleship begins with ongoing dependence on God's truth.07:05 Bearing Spiritual Fruit as Evidence of a Living FaithAuthentic faith produces visible evidence, not spiritual performance or curated appearances.09:30 Fruit Grows Through Faithfulness, Not Speed Discipleship is described as a slow, steady process. Jesus does not demand instant fruit. He calls for faithfulness over time. Growth may be gradual, but it is real.11:10 Loving as Jesus LovesThe defining mark of Jesus' disciples is a love that goes beyond preference or affection.12:40 Love Our Enemies Rooted in Matthew 5:44, this call challenges believers to reflect Christ's character in difficult relationships.14:20 Love Is Action, Not Feeling Biblical love is not primarily emotional. It is active and intentional. It expresses itself through obedience, sacrifice, and Spirit-empowered service.16:00 Why Love Is the Visible Badge of Discipleship While doctrine matters deeply, love is the evidence the world recognizes most clearly. Christlike love becomes the visible marker of a true disciple.18:45 Direction, Not Perfection The episode closes with a reminder that discipleship is about direction, not flawlessness. Jesus meets His followers where they are and calls them forward in faithfulness.“Discipleship isn't about hustle. It's about faithfulness.” – Pastor Jeff Cranston
This well known Psalm is often used in calls to worship and sung by children. It's a Psalm of thanksgiving as even the title says, and it reminds of "Who made whom."

Welcome to Day 2752 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2752 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 100:1-5 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2752 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day two thousand seven hundred fifty-two of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The Title for Today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Rhythm of Gratitude – Entering the Gates with Praise. Today, we arrive at a beloved landmark on our journey through the Psalter. We are exploring Psalm One Hundred, covering the entire hymn, verses one through five, in the New Living Translation. This short, vibrant psalm serves as the grand finale to the collection of Royal Psalms we have been trekking through (Psalms Ninety-three through Ninety-nine). In our previous trek through Psalm Ninety-nine, we were on our knees. We saw the Holy King enthroned between the Cherubim, and the command was to "tremble" and to "bow low." It was a psalm of heavy, transcendent holiness. Psalm One Hundred resolves that trembling into uncontainable joy. It tells us that the Holy King is also the Good Shepherd. It is the invitation to stand up, dust off our knees, and march through the temple gates with a song of thanksgiving. It is the only psalm in the Bible with the specific superscription "A Psalm of Thanksgiving" (Mizmor l'todah). It was likely sung as the procession entered the temple courts to offer the thanksgiving sacrifice. It teaches us that while God is the High King of the Divine Council, He is also our God, and His courts are open to us. So, let us join the procession and enter His gates with thanksgiving. The First Segment is: The Universal Call to Worship. Psalm One Hundred: verses one through two. Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth! Worship the Lord with gladness. Come before him, singing with joy. The psalm opens with a burst of energy, issuing three imperative commands to the entire world: "Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth!" The command to "shout" (rûa‘) connects us back to the earlier Royal Psalms. This is the shout of homage to a King; it is the fanfare of coronation. But notice the audience: "all the earth." This is a missionary call. Just as we saw in Psalm Ninety-six, the invitation to worship Yahweh is not restricted to the ethnic borders of Israel. It is a summons to the nations—who were formerly under the dominion of the rebel gods of the Divine Council—to switch their allegiance. We are calling the whole earth to defect from the darkness and shout allegiance to the True King. The second command defines the attitude of our service: "Worship the Lord with gladness." The word "Worship" (‘ābad) literally means to serve. It implies slavery or bond-service. In the ancient world, serving a god or a king was often a terrified, burdensome duty. You served to avoid being crushed. But Yahweh demands a different kind of service. We are to serve Him...
Psalm 100 is very short and very straightforward. Understanding it doesn't demand a lot from your brain, but embracing it demands a lot from your heart.
Jim Osman expounds Psalm 100's call to give joyful thanks to Yahweh through robust, enthusiastic worship. Believers offer joyful thanks to Yahweh because He created us and redeemed us as sheep of His pasture. This joyful thanks to Yahweh flows from meditating on His works and nature—His goodness, loving-kindness, and faithfulness enduring forever. We enter His gates offering joyful thanks to Yahweh, welcomed from pasture to palace, serving Him by blessing His name and proclaiming His unchanging mercy. ★ Support this podcast ★

Program for 11/28/2025 SAS Chapel: Psalm 100, Giving Thanks
The superscription of Psalm 100 identifies its purpose: to lead us into thanksgiving of the one true God. We join our voices to all creation when we make a joyful noise to the LORD, not only in our daily vocations, but especially in the Divine Service. We sing to Him because He has created us and saved us as our Good Shepherd. All of the LORD's work for us comes from the reality that He is good, and His steadfast love and faithfulness endure to all generations. Rev. Tim Storck, pastor at Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Chesterfield, MI, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 100. "Psalms of Thanksgiving” is a series on Sharper Iron that looks to several psalms to help us give thanks to God. The LORD gives blessings to His whole creation, even all evil people. As we pray the psalms, He teaches us to receive all His gifts with thanksgiving, knowing that He is good and His steadfast love endures forever. This episode originally aired on November 19, 2024. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

Happy Thanksgiving! As we gather with family and pause from the pace of life, this day holds special weight for Christians—not just as a national tradition, but as a spiritual discipline. Gratitude is more than a feeling; it's a response offered to a Person. And Psalm 100 reminds us exactly who deserves that thanks.In this Thanksgiving episode of Walk Talks, we walk through Psalm 100:4–5 and its call to “Give thanks to Him.” We explore how this psalm draws our eyes away from ourselves and toward the character of God—His exceeding goodness, His everlasting kindness, and His enduring faithfulness. These are the anchors of our thanksgiving, not only today but every day.Join us as we enter His courts with praise and rehearse the goodness, mercy, and faithfulness of the Lord to every generation.

In this episode, host Jamie Hampton invites us to look beyond the festivities and see gratitude as a powerful weapon, one capable of shifting our focus from our own fragile plans to God’s eternal faithfulness. If you have ever felt the exhaustion of trying to be "self-made," this episode is for you. We explore the deep rest found in the truth that "It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves." Join us as we enter His courts with praise, letting go of the need to control our destiny and embracing the joy of simply being the sheep of His pasture.

This sermon calls believers to celebrate a distinctly Christian Thanksgiving by anchoring their hearts in the truths of Psalm 100. The message emphasizes that Christian thanksgiving should be marked by supernatural joy, conscious awareness of God's presence (Coram Deo - before the face of God), and grounded in two foundational truths: that the Lord is God (our Creator, King, and Shepherd) and that the Lord is good (His steadfast love endures forever and His faithfulness extends to all generations). Pastor Joe Fant challenges the congregation to make this Thanksgiving different from secular celebrations by focusing on worship, service with gladness, and anchoring their hearts in biblical truth, especially during difficult seasons when joy may be hard to find. Key Points: A Christian Thanksgiving must be distinctly different from secular celebrations, focused on giving thanks to God specifically Psalm 100 provides a formula for Christian thanksgiving centered on joy, God's presence, and truth Joy should characterize our thanksgiving through singing (making a joyful noise) and serving with gladness We are called to live "Coram Deo" - consciously before the face of God in every moment and action True joy and peace come through believing truth, which then affects our affections and actions The Lord is God means He is our Creator, King, and Shepherd who has authority over our lives Jesus is identified as both the Creator (John 1) and the Good Shepherd who laid down His life for the sheep The Lord is good, demonstrated through His steadfast love that endures forever and His faithfulness to all generations God's faithfulness is passed down from generation to generation, making multi-generational worship significant Even in difficult times - loss, estrangement, family tensions - we can find joy by anchoring in these truths Scripture Reference: Psalm 100 (primary text) John 15:11 Philippians 4:4 Colossians 3:23-24 Romans 15:13 John 1:1-3 John 10:11 Ezekiel 34 John 6 (feeding of the 5,000) John 13 (new covenant) Psalm 139 Genesis 1:1 Psalm 16:8 Genesis 17

Psalm 100 reminds us that gratitude is our gateway to worship. In this message, we explore thanksgiving, joyful praise, and entering God's presence with a thankful heart.

Psalm 100, A Doxology Lifestyle, Rick Breucsh by Arbor Dale Church
Sunday Morning Message - Psalm 100In this message from November 23, Executive Pastor Ben Boyd leads us through Psalm 100, a joyful call to worship that invites God's people to enter His presence with gladness, gratitude, and praise. In just five verses, the psalm reminds us that the Lord is our Creator, our Shepherd, and forever faithful. As we continue our new mini-series, “A Season in Psalms,” we'll see how Psalm 100 re-centers our hearts by grounding our worship not in our circumstances, but in God's unchanging goodness. It's an invitation to come before Him with thanksgiving and to celebrate the enduring love that defines who He is and who we are in Him.

The Sermon from The Oaks Church weekly gathering.
Today’s Bible Verse:“For the Lord is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.” — Psalm 100:5 Psalm 100:5 anchors us in a truth we often need most on the hard days: God’s goodness isn’t seasonal, and His love doesn’t run out. His faithfulness stretches across generations—steady, unchanging, and deeply personal. When life feels unpredictable, this verse reminds us we’re held by a God who has never failed His people and won’t start now.
