這篇詩歌夾雜著宣告與禱告。我們彷彿看見詩人代表民眾向神發出讚美歡呼，卻又不時轉過頭來向民眾宣告神的公義慈愛，勸導他們要親近祂、敬畏祂。
我們的禱告也當如此：既知道神的偉大，就當倚靠祂的信實而承諾在生命中作出具體的回應。讚美稱頌不只在嘴唇上，也同樣在生活裡。既願凡有血氣的都永遠稱頌祂的聖名，那就從自己做起，再影響其他家庭成員、到同事同學朋友。這才是實在的回應。
建議討論：
- 「祢的國是永遠的國，祢執掌的權柄存到萬代。」(145:13, 和合本)
思想：「永遠」、「萬代」對你有什麼意義？會怎樣影響到你現在的生活？
- 「凡求告耶和華的，就是誠心求告祂的，耶和華便與他們相近。」 (145:18, 和合本)
思想：你認為怎樣才算是「誠心求告」？你有這樣的經驗嗎？
