Today : Praise God
TODAY’S VERSE
It is good to praise the LORD and make music to your name, O Most High, to proclaim your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night. Psalms 92:1,2 (NIV)
TODAY’S THOUGHT
You can’t eat one meal and say that is enough for the rest of the month. It is not good enough to take one breath and quit. Most of life seems to have a rhythm, a sustainability that comes from repeated processes. So it is with praise and joy. It is not good enough to have had joy once upon a time. You can’t live a victorious Christian life on memories of better days. No, with God, everyday has its measure of mercy and grace. Everyday has the presence of God. The question is, “Are we aware of it?” If we are going to get all we can out of life, then we need to make a conscious effort to be aware of the presence of God. What better way than to proclaim His love in the morning and, when the day is over, purposely reflect on His faithfulness.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Praise You, dear God, for Your love for me. Thank You for Your faithfulness. Help me to sing Your praises, to have a heart of gladness and a spirit of thankfulness for all You have done for me. Help me to proclaim Your love every morning and Your faithfulness every night. Might Your joy be my strength today. In Jesus’ name.
AMEN
TODAY’S AFFIRMATION & MEDITATION
I proclaim God’s love for me in the morning and His faithfulness at night
See yourself praising God. Picture the morning and you rise and begin to praise Him for His deep love for you. Then see yourself at night, before you go to bed, realizing how faithful God was to you during the day. Sense the smile that comes to your face and the warmth in your heart as you recognize His love and faithfulness for you.
