Psalm 115

Commentary

The message of Psalm 115 resonates throughout the ages, as the temptation to worship false gods or put our trust in worldly idols continues to plague humanity. The psalmist reminds us that God alone is worthy of our worship and devotion, for He is the Creator and Sustainer of all things. In contrast, idols are the work of human hands, with no power to save or deliver. The psalmist encourages us to put our faith in the living God, who hears our prayers and blesses us with His abundant goodness. This psalm reminds us to assess our own lives and reflect upon whether we are truly placing our trust in the right place.
