Prais God

Praise God
The Psalmist writes,
“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
Many years ago when I was young I performed in a gospel group. We were somewhat successful on a local level. Managing to perform at various venues from coffee houses to churches around southern Ontario.
Our performances consisted of music, theatre, and interpretive dance.
A couple of fond memories I have of back then is that rehearsals were more like a praise meeting. As was meal times. Rather than saying grace we sung it. Singing
Praise God from whom all blessings flow.
Praise Him all creatures here below.
Praise Him above ye heavenly hosts.
Praise Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
We sang not just because we were a gospel group. We sang because we believed what we were singing. We believed that no matter the situation we were in, God was worthy of being praised.
It is something believers in Christ Jesus need to be doing especially in these uncertain times.
Please think about it.
