David’s Daily Devotion for Sept. 7

September 7, 2022 - Good Morning!  It's Wednesday, September 7.

This Sunday, our worship teams will call our congregation to worship with one of the oldest hymns in the hymnbook.  And it isn't really even a hymn.  It's a doxology.  The word comes from the Greek "doxa", meaning glory, and "logia", to say.  So, literally, a doxology is an expression of praise.  And, historically, it has been employed as a "tag" to hymns.  The "hallelujah" at the end of many of the Psalms could be considered doxologies.
