“Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord, O my soul, I will praise the Lord all my life. I will sing praise to my God as long as I live.” Psalm 146:1-2.
We talk about praise and we sing about praise, but do we think about what praise actually is?
“Praise to the Lord all my life” means always putting God ahead of everything else,
Praise
….takes our minds off of the things that bother us or bring us down.
….focuses our minds on God and His blessings.
….leads us not only to meditate privately, but to worship with others.
….allows us to know God’s desires for our lives.
…leads us to listen to His voice and recognize His power.
….lifts us from that which is earthly to that which is heavenly.
According to this Psalm we should praise as long as we live. Every moment is an opportunity for praise.
“The Lord reigns forever….Praise the Lord……” Psalm 146:10.
Have a blessed day!
In Christian love,
