Psalm 96:6 (NKJV) 6 Honor and majesty are before Him; Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

The enemy has a way of trying to get us down, taking our eyes off God and getting us to focus on things that are less than joyful or pleasant.

The times in which we live seem to be even more this way. And if we’re not careful, we will begin to question God, His ways and who He is.

But it’s easy to fight this if we simply put our eyes back on His majesty and magnificence.

Lately I have been spending much more time reflecting on His goodness and His majesty than ever before.

Not only does it help keep me from focusing on the evil that we see playing out, but it gives me fresh insights and an outlook of joy, instead of gloom and doom.

I will admit that some days are harder than others. But when God and His majesty are our focal point, we can’t help but stop feeling down and doubtful and begin to praise Him for His goodness and mercy.

Let us praise Him today for our blessings, instead of being angry about what we lack or bad things that might have happened to us.

And worship Him for who He is, instead of questioning His ways and allowing the enemy to drive a wedge between Him and us.

Psalm 107:31 (NKJV) 31 Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!

Deuteronomy 10:21 (NKJV) 21 He is your praise, and He is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome things which your eyes have seen.

We praise You Lord, for You truly are our God! You are holy and full of righteousness, and we trust You for Who You are.

We come into Your presence today with a grateful heart for these awesome things our eyes have seen; all the beauty that You have placed before us.

When we look up, we see You! When we look around, we see You. When we look into the eyes of other believers, we see You.

You have made all things beautiful and You touch our hearts each day with simple, but yet profound love.

You continue to stand with us and help us no matter how many times we have failed or disappointed You.

We are sorry and we want to do better as You fill us with Your Holy Spirit and give us the wisdom, the discipline and strength to do what needs to be done.

We are weak without You Father, but with You we can do the impossible!!

Matthew 19:26 (NKJV) 26 But Jesus looked at them and said to them, “With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

We Love You today, Father, with all our being. You alone are our praise! Amen.

Psalm 34:1 (NKJV) 1 I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.

Some days, whether I’m out in my yard or driving down the road, something in me will just say, “Hallelujah!”.

My mind is not thinking of anything in particular when this happens, other than just praising Him.

All on its own it goes into praise mode. What is that?

That is our spirit man; the part of us that connects and communes with God.

Our spirit man is the part of us that is ready to praise, no matter what we are doing, no matter what we are facing, no matter how we feel.

Our spirit man, when we have been saved, is quickened (made alive), and stands at attention for Him.

If we wait on the flesh to want to praise God, we will be waiting for everything to be going just right. And how often does that happen?

But, if we let our spirit man lead, get ready to sing praises or speak words of honor to Him at anytime, day or night.

Even in the hardest of times we will catch ourselves saying, “I praise you Lord, for You are good!”.

We will find ourselves blessing the Lord all day long. We will be like David, with His praises continually on our tongue!

If we can quiet our flesh long enough, our spirit man will rise up with praises, and our flesh will join in!

Psalm 113:3 (NKJV) 3 From the rising of the sun to its going down The Lord’s name is to be praised.

Psalm 97:1 (NKJV) 1 The Lord reigns; Let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad!

God created the world we live in. All around us is beauty. And it is full of life. Everything has movement.

The Bible says to let all the earth rejoice!

When is the last time we rejoiced?

With all the negativity and corruption we see in the world, it seems so hard to find it in our hearts to rejoice.

The other day I was feeling downhearted, thinking of how far backwards we have gone here in the USA, and even in other nations. The things we have allowed in are shameful. I felt we have lost ground because of it.

But as I looked outside, God began to show me the life that is all around us in the things He created. And these things are here for us to look at each day.

There is so much life in the trees. Here in the Northeastern United States, the leaves are so beautiful this time of year.

Or, no matter where you are, when you look up at the sky, the birds are flying and the clouds are moving.

We can look at the ground. The grass is growing. The fields are full of flowers blossoming. The sea is roaring, and the rivers are flowing.

Oh, my goodness; such life and beauty that no person can stop or control.

I got up from my downtrodden state of heart and said, “I praise You God. You are alive in everything around us!!”

We can’t give up.

We need to be alive too. We need to stay in that place of rejoicing and not let evil or darkness try to rob us of our joy!

They can’t touch God’s hand. His work, His majestic creation…. they can’t touch or change it. Such life flows from all of it.

Hallelujah! Shout with us today, because if we don’t, Jesus says in Luke… the rocks will cry out.

Luke 19:40 (NKJV) 40 But He answered and said to them, “I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out.”

We praise You, Lord God. You are alive in all that is around us! Amen.

Psalm 100: 1-2 (NKJV) 1 Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! 2 Serve the Lord with gladness; Come before His presence with singing.

There’s probably not much shouting with joy these days, with all that is going on.

It is so devastating to look at and watch. And it’s almost unbelievable the way that everything has come to a standstill.

These are the times when shouting joyfully should be even stronger. Why would we shout and sing at a time like this?

Why would Paul and Silas sing and praise God in a time when they had been beaten and stuck in a prison for doing nothing wrong? They sang so loudly that all those around them could hear it.

Acts 16:25 (KJV) 25 And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.

We’ve got to understand that these are the times we will see God’s hand move, in the midst of us not knowing what is going on.

He protects His babes; the children that call Him Papa, the children that believe and trust in His Son, Jesus Christ.

This pandemic that has hit the world is coming under control. And it will pass. You can say, “well everything has changed. Will we ever get back to normal?”.

Let it work its way out. Maybe this change is our answer to some things. We need not look only at the bad or the evil that is in it, but the good that comes out of it.

Sometimes when things don’t look the same as what we’re used to seeing, we don’t have the mind of Christ. We start thinking from our own intellect, and the Spirit is pushed down.

We don’t want to be like Peter, standing in the way of things that Jesus needed to do. Let’s get out of the way and let God bring whatever change is necessary.

Mark 8:33 (NKJV) 33 But when He had turned around and looked at His disciples, He rebuked Peter, saying, “Get behind Me, Satan! For you are not mindful of the things of God, but the things of men.”

If we want to help at this time, sing to Him a new song. Praise His name. For the change that is coming will be good for us all!

Psalm 86:12 (NKJV) 12 I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I will glorify Your name forevermore.

As believers, bringing praise to God on a daily basis should be part of our walk with Him.

You see, part of praising Him is recognizing the things He has done for us. Although we hear the term “praise and worship” used a lot, praise is actually different than worship.

We praise God for the things He does. We worship Him for who He is.

So, part of praising Him is recognizing the things He has done for us, and in our lives.

Some of what we praise Him for may be material blessings; a job, a place to live, His provision for us, etc.

But we can and should also praise Him for what He has done in our lives; salvation, deliverance, healing, bringing change to our lives, teaching us His word, and so on.

We all have very, very many things to praise Him for, even when we might not always think so. It’s safe to say that there is more about our lives that is good than there is that’s bad.

That in itself is enough to praise Him every day!

Sometimes we need to still our mind and tell it “enough is enough, I’m going to praise my God, and you’re going to be quiet”.

This takes practice, and it takes us recognizing that our mind is trying to run the show. And once we recognize it, we take action, putting God first, where He belongs.

Let’s make an effort to purposely praise God every day, setting aside our cares, our worries and our concerns, and showing Him our gratitude with our words, our songs and by putting Him first in everything that we do.

Psalm 33:1 (NKJV) 1 Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous! For praise from the upright is beautiful.

God loves our praises to Him. And if we are His children, we are the upright. We are the righteous, made through His Son, Jesus Christ.

God gave us the gift of salvation. It is a free gift. But in order for us to receive it, it takes us believing in His Son.

We don’t just simply believe that He is the Son of God. But that He came to save us from our sins.

He did this by means of the cross. He died for you and me. The only One that could do this was Jesus Christ. Why?

Because His blood was the perfect sacrifice for our sins. And we needed a perfect sacrifice, for our sin was great. We could, in no way, shape or form, attempt to be in God’s presence.

Jesus Christ is not just the Son of God. He is God in the flesh, and He is our Savior! He came to die for our sins and make things right for us.

If we believe this and we receive Him for Who He is, then we are made righteous through Him.

We can go to God in prayer and speak to Him through His Son’s name, Jesus Christ. No other man has to be a mediator for us. Jesus is our mediator.

John 14:6 (NKJV) 6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

If we believe this today, ask God for forgiveness from our sins, and receive Jesus today as our Savior.

Walk out the life He has for us, and enjoy His presence each day. He will set us free from the heaviness of sin and teach us how to walk in righteousness!

John 8:36 (NKJV) 36 Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

Praise be to God!

Psalm 86:12 (NKJV) 12 I will praise You, O Lord my God, with all my heart, And I will glorify Your name forevermore.

Have you ever known that you needed to praise God, but you just didn’t feel like it?

Many people might read that and think about being in a church service and praising God corporately, as a large group. And while that’s the typical setting, this is more about praising God individually, one-on-one.

Sometimes we can feel down. Maybe we’re disappointed about something that happened (or didn’t happen).

Maybe we have been dealt a blow somehow that has us a bit mad at God, even though it wasn’t His fault.

Often times we let our emotions dictate how and when we praise Him, or whether we praise Him at all.

But here’s the thing. Our worship and praise for God isn’t meant to be based on how we feel. Not at all.

God wants us to worship Him in spirit and in truth, not based on our emotions or our intellect.

John 4:24 (NKJV) 24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

So, no matter how we’re feeling, up, down or somewhere in between, we need to give God our adoration and praise!

Are we feeling sick? Are we disappointed? Are we angry about something? Are we in trouble? Are we in intense pain? Are we stressed? Are we under pressure?

It doesn’t matter. Regardless of what we’re going through, we need to praise our God with everything in us.

He is worthy of our praise, morning, noon and night, no matter how we feel.

Praise Him, saints of God!

Psalm 92:1-2 (NKJV) 1 It is good to give thanks to the Lord, And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; 2 To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning, And Your faithfulness every night…

Take this day and declare His lovingkindness!

The things of life can take up every second of our day and night. It’s up to us to stop it and slow it down. It’s up to us to make our day what it should be and prioritize it correctly.

We have the power and control over each day in our hands. What will we do with it?

Will we follow God’s word today and take a few minutes? Will we stop what we think is so important, put it aside for Him, and declare how faithful He is?

What an Awesome Papa He is!

His word says it is GOOD to sing and praise and thank Him!

Hallelujah to my Lord!

Psalm 150: 1-6 (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!

Amen!! God wants us to praise Him today.

Don’t wait until tonight, or tomorrow. Don’t wait until Wednesday or Thursday night Bible study. Don’t wait until Sunday Services.

No. God wants us to break out in a song from our heart NOW!

He is waiting for our voices, our dance, our instruments… whatever way we want to praise Him in that moment, and let it out.

He is great, He is excellent and He is mighty!

He has given us life and life more abundantly, through His precious Son, Jesus Christ.

He has given us a Helper, the Holy Spirit, to walk with us each day.

John 10:10 (NKJV) 10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

We are blessed beyond our knowing. And we have a wonderful Lord Who loves us dearly!

Praise Him with all our heart.
