1. Whom did you tell how thankful you are for them over the last week?
2. Tell us about your Thanksgiving. Whom did you see? What did you eat? What did you do?
- Thanksgiving week isn’t quite over, so let’s spend a little more time being thankful. How have you experienced God’s faithfulness over the past year?
Ask two people to read aloud Psalm 100 and Psalm 150 one after the other, preferably from different Bible versions. Then ask a third person to paraphrase both psalms in as much detail as possible.
3. The first three verses of Psalm 100 give three ways to worship God. What are they?
- Which one of these ways to worship is easiest for you and which is hardest?
4. Psalm 150 provides an interesting progression of praise. First we’re told to praise God “in” certain places. What are those places?
- Then we’re told to praise God “for” certain things. What things?
- And then we’re told to praise God “with” certain things. What things?
5. If you were writing your own psalm, what would be your “in”? Where is your sanctuary?
- What would be your “for”? What are the attributes that you praise?
- What is your “with”? What things can you do to praise God?
6. What do we know is true about God by reading these two psalms?
7. What do we know is true about ourselves?
8. What would you need to change in your life to give more glory and praise to God?
9. Whom will you tell about God’s praiseworthiness this week?
10. Based on our study and discussion, complete the sentence: “I will . . .”
For Next Week: Read and reflect on Matthew 9:35-38; 10:24-33 as we begin a new unit on Matthew: “Jesus Is Lord.” You can also read next week’s supplemental texts as well as the Study and Application sections as part of your personal study.
