Sing to the Lord

Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving.
Psalm 147:7

Praise is a powerful tool. Praise reaches the heavens and resounds at the throne of God. Praise makes the enemy flee. Praise turns a heart of pain into a heart of joy. Yes, praise is a powerful tool. Throughout the book of Psalms we are repeatedly told to praise and sing to the Lord. 

When life's circumstances are positive it's fairly easy to praise, and yet we often forget to praise God in the good times. In the storms of life, praise is not always our first response. Yet when we choose to praise instead of focus on the negative, we are changed from the inside out! 

Today, choose joy by singing  to the Lord with thanksgiving. Praise His name! Praise Him for his faithfulness and mercy. Honor Him for his love and unending grace. Sing because He has freed you from your sins. Praise Him, yes, praise him in his holy sanctuary!

Dear Lord,
We thank you today for the gift of life and the forgiveness of sin. We thank you for your love and mercy. God we praise you, for you alone are worthy of our thanks and praise! We lift our voices in worship because you are King of the World! Amen
