Great is the LORD, and highly to be praised, and His greatness is unsearchable. One generation shall praise Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts. On the glorious splendor of Your majesty and on Your wonderful works, I will meditate. — Psalms 145:3-5 (NASB1995) “You’re kind and tenderhearted to those who don’t deserve it and very patient with people who fail you. Your love is like a flooding river overflowing its banks with kindness.” (Psalms 145:8 TPT) “You are the Lord who reigns over your never-ending kingdom through all the ages of time and eternity! You are faithful to fulfill every promise you’ve made. You manifest yourself as kindness in all you do.” (Psalms 145:13 TPT) “You draw near to those who call out to you, listening closely, especially when their hearts are true.” (Psalms 145:18 TPT) Let us draw near to Yahweh. For in Him we live and move and exist [that is, in Him we actually have our being], as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we also ar...

I’m all ears, all eyes before you. Save me from my enemies, GOD— you’re my only hope! Teach me how to live to please you, because you’re my God. Lead me by your blessed Spirit into cleared and level pastureland.  — Psalm 143:9-10 (MSG) God is magnificent; he can never be praised enough. There are no boundaries to his greatness (Psalm 145:3 MSG).The LORD is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made (Psalm 145:9 NIV). He gives to all life, breath, and all things (Acts 17:25 NKJV). Keep your ears open to the sound of His loving voice. Fix your eyes upon Him. He is the answer, the solution, the provider, the healer. He is our only Hope!

Your righteousness, O God, reaches to the highest heavens. You have done such wonderful things. Who can compare with you, O God? — Psalm 71:19 (NLT) Great is our wonder-working God and greatly to be praised! The LORD has done such marvelous things, there is none to compare. Continually give thanks the LORD for all that He has done and is doing in your life. Blessed be the LORD God, the God of Israel, Who alone works wonders. And blessed be His glorious name forever; And may the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen, and Amen (Psalm 72:18-19, NAS). The day is Yours, the night also is Yours; You have prepared the light and the sun. — Psalm 74:16 (NKJV)

Stand Up and Thank the LORD!

“Stand up, and thank the LORD your God: From everlasting to everlasting your glorious name is praised and lifted high above all blessing and praise. You alone are the LORD.
 You made heaven, the highest heaven, with all its armies. You made the earth and everything on it, the seas and everything in them. You give life to them all, and the armies of heaven worship you.” — Nehemiah 9:5-6 (GW) Let everything that has breath, thank the LORD! He is the giver of life. Our heavenly Father is a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love (Nehemiah 9:17). And His faithful love never runs out on us. Thank You, LORD!

As Long as You Live...Call!

I love the LORD, because He has heard my voice and my supplications. Because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.  — Psalm 116:1-2 (NKJV) When we cry out to our God, He hears our cry, and He answers. The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth (Psalm 145:18).  So call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised, as long as you live!

A Single Purpose

The believers had a single purpose and went to the temple every day. They were joyful and humble as they ate at each other’s homes and shared their food. At the same time, they praised God and had the good will of all the people. Every day the Lord saved people, and they were added to the group. — Acts 2:46-47 (GW) Amazing things happen when God's people come together in one accord. In Acts 2, the believers were devoted to studying the Word daily, fellowship, to the breaking of bread, to prayer and to praising God. As a result, miraculous signs took place, they were full of joy, generous and humble. The Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved. People liked what they saw and wanted to be a part. When the world sees the church loving God and really caring about each other, they will want to be a member of God's family.

Attitude of Gratitude

As he went into a village, ten men with a skin disease met him. They stood at a distance and shouted, “Jesus, Teacher, have mercy on us!” When he saw them, he told them, “Show yourselves to the priests.” As they went, they were made clean. When one of them saw that he was healed, he turned back and praised God in a loud voice. He quickly bowed at Jesus’ feet and thanked him.  — Luke 17:12-16 (GW) Always have an attitude of gratitude to the Lord for all He has done for you. Thank God for waking you up this morning. There are many who were not this fortunate. It is good to praise and thank the Lord and give Him all the glory!
