Psalm 29
Psalm 29 Meaning
Psalm 29 is a thunderstorm set to music. Seven times it names the voice of the LORD, powerful and full of majesty, breaking cedars, shaking the wilderness, and flashing forth flames of fire.
Yet the storm ends in peace. The LORD sits enthroned as King forever, and He gives strength to His people and blesses them with peace.
