As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I was thinking about the word PRAISE. The dictionary says PRAISE is the expression of approval or admiration for someone or something. Every morning, we need to wake up and PRAISE God, for we have been given the chance for a new day, a new beginning.
And the Scriptures often remind us about PRAISE. We need to praise God in good times and in bad. David says in Psalm 68:19, “PRAISE be to the Lord, the God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens.”
To PRAISE is to give thanks. Deuteronomy 7:9, says, “I PRAISE you, God, for you keep your covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love you and keep your commandments.”
We PRAISE God for life, and we even praise HIM for the trials we endure! Remember, PRAISE is the highest form of prayer.
So today, PRAISE the Lord, and have a blessed day!
