Praise the Lord

Praise the Lord

Praise the LORD. 

Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens. 

Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness. 

Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, 

praise him with the harp and lyre, 

praise him with tambourine and dancing,

 praise him with the strings and flute, 

praise him with the clash of cymbals, 

praise him with resounding cymbals. 

Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. 

Praise the LORD. 

Psalm 150

If you claim to be a Christian. When was the last time you sat down on your own and praised the Lord?
I don’t mean listen to praise music. I mean you on your own in word or in song praising the Lord.
Sadly all too many Christians do not praise the Lord enough. They listen to praise music because it sounds good. It even makes them feel good. However they don’t praise the Lord themselves.
I think it’s important whenever we get a chance, to praise the Lord. Yes you can put on praise music and sing along with it. But mean what you are singing. Put your mind and soul into your words.
Give glory to God. Thank Him for all He has done for you. Magnify his name for he is worthy of your praise.
Here’s a simple task for you. Take a few minutes now to sit back in a chair, or stand or praying on your knees and praise God either in word or in song.
Perhaps even write words of praise to God. If you play an instrument use it to praise God. Don’t be afraid to give God the glory He is due.
Please think about it.
