Psalms 66:8 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 66:8

O bless our God, ye people
In all countries, that know the Lord and fear him; ascribe blessing, and honour and glory, to Christ our God, on account of his works, actions, perfections, kingdom and power; and because of the destruction of those who are rebels to his government;

and make the voice of his praise to be heard;
far and near, in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs; by shoutings, and loud acclamations of joy; see ( Revelation 19:5 Revelation 19:6 ) ; where Christ is called our God, and a like exhortation is made as here.

6 He turned the sea into dry land. They passed through the river on foot; there we rejoiced in him.
7 With his power he rules forever; his eyes keep watch on the nations. Let no rebel arise to challenge him.
8 Bless our God, you peoples! Let the sound of his praise be heard!
9 He preserves our lives and keeps our feet from stumbling. (Selah)
10 For you, God, have tested us, refined us as silver is refined.
