The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved. Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad;
let them say among the nations, "The Lord reigns!" Let the sea resound, and all that is in it;
let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them! Let the trees of the forest sing,
let them sing for joy before the Lord,
for he comes to judge the earth. Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good;
his love endures forever. Cry out, "Save us, God our Savior;
gather us and deliver us from the nations,
that we may give thanks to your holy name,
and glory in your praise." Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.
Then all the people said "Amen" and "Praise the Lord." (1 Chronicles 16:30-36 NIV)
Kadin says this tells us how to respond to God. The ark had just been brought in and at that time it carried the presence of God and they were placing it in the temple. This was so important to the people. This is how we should respond since WE are the temple now and He lives IN US.
