This week, Nathan's message, "Praise on Repeat," focuses on the Psalms of Praise, a core theme in the Tehillim (Hebrew for "Book of Praises"). He divides them into two types: Declarative Psalms (or thanksgiving, Toda), which retell a personal or communal crisis and God’s specific deliverance (e.g., Psalm 116), leading to a renewed vow of praise. Secondly, Descriptive Psalms (or hymns), which call others to join in praising God for who He is—His surpassing greatness and acts of power (e.g., Psalm 150). Nathan explains that Hallelujah means "Come praise God," urging Christians to make their lives a continual sacrifice of praise (Hebrews 13:15) in response to His ultimate act of salvation through Jesus, regardless of life's circumstances.
