Blessing God in the Congregation
Psalm 26:12
My foot stands in an even place: in the congregations will I bless the LORD.


If a saint's single voice in prayer is so sweet to God's ear, much more His saints' prayer and praise in consort together. A father is glad to see any one of his children, and makes him welcome when he visits him, but much more when they come together; the greatest feast is when they all meet at his house. The public praises of the Church are the emblem of heaven itself. There is a wonderful prevalence in the joint prayers of His people. When Peter was in prison the Church meets and prays him out of his enemies' hands. A prince will grant a petition subscribed by the hands of a whole city, which, may be, he would not grant at the request of a private subject.

(H. Gurnall.).
