*In a recent song I said to God, "I feel your power in every storm." That is certainly the theme of Psalm 29. Read it in David.
In Psalm 29 David call out to the heavenly beings to praise God in the mighty rainstorm that passes east to west from the waters of the Mediterranean sea, the mountains of Lebanon, and on to the desert land of Syria. Throughout the storm the voice of God is heard in control. In the song, The Grand Old Story, the author writes, “I see your love of beauty in the sunset, I feel your awesome power in every storm.” Such awareness prompts the Psalmist to call on the angelic beings to lift their voices in praise to God, victorious over the broad expanse of the natural world. Psalm 29 Give Yahweh due praise, you heavenly beings Praise his holy name; Let it roll out like thunder over the waters Its power the world sets aflame. The voice of the Lord shatters the cedars of Lebanon He makes mountains skip like a calf; Lebanon leaps like a young wild ox The Lord makes the lightening flash. The voice of Yahweh makes the desert shake Shouts of glory never cease; The Lord is enthroned as king forever He blesses his people with peace.
