The entire book of Psalms ends with 6 short verses all about praising the Lord. Praise isn’t just a mode of happiness because we feel good, or we’ve gotten through some storm. We praise because we know that lament isn’t the end of the story. We praise because there is restoration, redemption, and reconciliation in Christ. We are safe to have high expectations of God, and our praise can be anticipation. The hallelujah in Psalm 150 isn’t just a statement—it’s a command. Even in the storms of rejection, confusion, and pain throughout the rest of the Psalms, Psalm 150 is a beautiful command from God to praise him for who he is with what you have.
