READ: PSALM 150 (NKJV)

  1. Praise the LORD! Praise God in His sanctuary; Praise Him in His mighty firmament!
  2. Praise Him for His mighty acts; Praise Him according to His excellent greatness!
  3. Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet; Praise Him with the lute and harp!
  4. Praise Him with the timbrel and dance; Praise Him with stringed instruments and flutes!
  5. Praise Him with loud cymbals; Praise Him with clashing cymbals!
  6. Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD!

THE MESSAGE:

One of the ways we can appreciate God for His mighty works and His unequalled greatness is by freely praising Him with all our hearts, our souls, minds and with all our strength. God does many mighty works such as creating us, keeping us alive, giving us our daily bread, delivering us from evil, dangers and various accidents, giving us children, giving us admission into schools, healing us and keeping us breathing every day. God also fights our unseen battles and gives us victories.

God is awesome and great; His greatness cannot be equaled at all by anything or anybody. When we carefully meditate and consider God’s mercies, His kindness and compassion towards us and the incredible love He bestowed on us and the hope of eternal life, we should wholeheartedly praise His holy name. Praise God with your tongue and clapping of hands; praise Him with instruments like the trumpet, harp, guitar, organ, cymbals and tambourine. Instead of murmuring or complaining about everything, turn the occasion of complaining to the occasion of praising God. If you incline your heart to praising God, He will take away your ailments.

PRAYER: Carefully think and recollect all the things God has done for you and praise Him with all your heart.
