Right in the middle of ancient Israel's songbook — a nation convinced God's blessings were exclusively theirs — sits a tiny song that says everyone's invited.
📢 Chapter 117 — The Shortest Chapter with the Widest Invitation 🌍
The shortest chapter in the entire Bible — two verses. Inside these two lines is a claim wide enough to cover every person who has ever lived.
Every Nation, No Exceptions 🌏
The psalmist opens with the widest possible invitation:
Praise the Lord, all nations! Honor him, all peoples!
His faithful love toward us is overwhelming, and the Lord's faithfulness never runs out.
