Praise The Lord.

Psalm 92:1-3
1 It is good to give thanks to the Lord,
to sing praises to the Most High.
2 It is good to proclaim your unfailing love in the morning,
your faithfulness in the evening,
3 accompanied by the ten-stringed harp
and the melody of the lyre.


We should thank God for each day, even if they're bad. Hey, we made it through the day didn't we? It's something we should do every day and every night, not just on Sundays...not just when we feel like it...not just in public, but in private. It should be a priority.

There are many reasons why we should praise God. First, God deserves our praise, so there is no reason to hesitate. God created everything. Just knowing that makes everything beautiful! He is so great that nobody can even fathom.

Second, praising God benefits us in the end. Every time we praise God, God's awesomeness flashes before our eyes. The more you praise him, the more you will learn about God.

Third, praise really shows our strength. If we're able to praise God for everything under the sun, God really likes that.

Fourth, God thrives off of praise. Praising him will allow you to truly see God's blessings and grace. Praise him with everything you have.

We sang a song in church yesterday called You're Worthy of My Praise (see video below by Jeremy Camp). Maybe you can sing this song each and every day. I don't care whatever it takes, PRAISE HIM, and you will be in awe of his love and power!
