“My heart, O God, is steadfast; I will sing and make music with all my soul. Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn. I will praise you, Lord, among the nations; I will sing of you among the peoples. For great is your love, higher than the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth.” Psalms 108:1- 5 NIV
O sing praise and thanksgiving unto the Lord our God for He is worthy to be praised. His love for us is beyond boundaries and we must allow our love for Him to flow to that same place and it starts with reverence, adoration, praise and worship to the Lord our God. We all need to take time to stop what we are doing and praise the Lord. If the only time we offer praise to our God is when we assemble with a group, then we are missing a big part of serving Him. We should be filled with such gratitude for all He has done and is doing for us that we overflow with praise and thanksgiving every day of our lives. Our worship in a church service is important. It is God’s idea for us to meet in these assemblies and Who told us that we are not to forsake them. But another very important part of our spiritual growth depends on our personal study and individual devotions in our private hours. It is then that we can be near to God and feel His presence in our hearts as we commune with Him in our Bible study and prayer time. We can reflect on the many personal blessings we enjoy but take for granted and we can praise him with thanksgiving. Let the redeemed of the Lord praise, worship and glorify the Lord our God from the fruit of our lips and with the string instruments.
Today is the day to purpose in our heart and determine in our mind that it is the Lord our God that we will offer up praise and worship to on this day He has allowed us to see. Are you determined to lift up and offer praise, honor and worship to the Lord your God on today?
Father thank You for this day and thank you for all the provisions You have already purposed to give us today. Lord let Your abundant blessings be my friend and family’s portion today. Lord we thank You for the many freedoms we enjoy and have had our entire lives by being born in this country by Your grace. Lord help us to embrace our measure of faith that You have given us so that if the time and circumstance ever comes that we face opposition, we will be faithful to You. Lord use my friend to be salt and light in this decaying world today. Daddy we love you amen. Be a blessing. Love you !
