Singing in the Midst of Shaking (Psalm 47) | Gary Wilkerson

Published on: 5th May, 2025

How Do We Sing When Our World Is Shaking?

This sermon explores Psalm 47, focusing on the theme of finding joy and singing praises even during difficult times. Gary Wilkerson connects this to Psalm 46, which describes a world in turmoil.

Main Ideas:

  1. God calls us to sing praises even amid life's crises and challenges
  2. We can sing because: God reigns as king, subdues our enemies, chooses us, and loves us
  3. Singing has spiritual and physical benefits: reduces stress, improves mood, boosts immunity
  4. God's sovereignty ("He sits" rather than paces with worry) and protection provide security
  5. Like God who sings over his people, we're encouraged to respond with praise in all circumstances

The sermon concludes with an encouragement to sing praises in all circumstances as a response to God's character and promises.
