Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and bless His name. For the LORD is good, and His loving devotion endures forever; His faithfulness continues to all generations.

What it means

Thanksgiving is the way in. The psalm gives the reason plainly: God is good, His covenant love does not run out, and His faithfulness outlasts every generation.

A psalm for giving thanks, likely sung by pilgrims approaching the temple. It is the only psalm with this heading.

Where it addresses you

  • You are approaching God and do not know how to begin.

  • You need to remember that His goodness has not run out.
