Psalm 87

BibleGateway.com Psalm 87

Matthew Henry indicates that this speaks of God establishing His people, Christ's Church. The church is more glorious than all the nations. It is important to dwell on "the Most High himself will establish her".
Even though God has given us the evangelistic commission, we do not build His people. He alone establishes the church. We do not need to wonder if we said the wrong thing and now someone will go to hell. You do not have that much power. This is a fact that is liberating! By joyful and know that all you have to do is preach the Gospel. God makes the hearing. God makes the repentance. God creates the new life in Christ! Be free of the pressure to save the world and take the name of Christ to every corner of the earth!
