Sing Songs Of Praise

Our Lord God is so wonderful. His Name brings me down to worship Him. I lift up His Name, above all names, for He is mighty to save. All to Jesus, I give worship and praise. As David sang out, ¹“I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations.” People of this world have let me down, time and time again, but the Lord God never fails. ²His mercy endures forever. Even when I fail, He lifts me up. God is ever so kind. ²His arms are continually stretched out wide, to take us back, when we fall. He never gives up on us. Oh how great is our God. I love how David put it, ¹“For who in the heaven can be compared unto the Lord? who among the sons of the mighty can be likened unto the Lord?” No one is greater. His love is eternal. Once we are in the arms of Jesus, He will carry us forth till the ends of time. He is stronger than all men. For he is able to carry our burdens, that they may be light. I will sing as David did, ¹“O Lord God of hosts, who is a strong Lord like unto thee? or to thy faithfulness round about thee?” Nothing compares to Your love. You are ever so faithful to my needs. You are always listening and give me such wise counsel. Your counsels lead me to know Your will for my life. I love Your ways.

Come and worship the God of the heavens. Come before Him and sing songs to His Name. For He is holy. Holy, holy is His Name. I shout praises to the Name of Jesus. I rejoice in my Lord, who saves. He is so gracious and kind. His ways are just. ¹“God is greatly to be feared.” He has the power to do all things. Will you give Him reverence, in the way you live? We ought to honor Him with our mouths and our hearts. May our words praise Him and our hearts honor Him. Know that the heavens were made by God most high. We are His greatest workmanship, created in His image. One day, all of us will stand before God in judgement. This day is coming for everybody, old and young. We don’t know our time of death but as we go to the grave, carry the light of Christ within you. Never forget Jesus. He is the one that will help you endure. When you come before His throne it will be glorious. ³To those that were sanctified in His blood will be in heaven. David taught, speaking of the Lord, ¹“Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face.” When we come before Jesus, His mercy will be upon us. May you always remember what David taught next, ¹“Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of thy countenance.”

Let us pray:
Oh Lord, I am forever grateful for Your mercy. Thank You for Your forgiveness. My life wasn’t always for You, but still You took me in. My sins were great but You still took me by the hand and cleaned me from within. My mind had so much lust but Your love overcame those feelings and replaced them with love. I was incapable of changing my life but You gave me a new heart and now I am changed. Without You, I am weak. With You, I am strong. No one is like You God. You are higher than all men. Your ways are greater. How deep is Your love. Your kindness takes my breath away. How could You care for me so much after all I have done? No one has loved me like You have. Wow. My heart is moved by Your great compassion. I love You so much Lord. You are the rock of my salvation. It is amazing to praise Your Holy Name. I will never stop rejoicing for You are with me. Amen.

³Revelation 7:9-17 (KJV)
9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;
10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.
11 And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,
12 Saying, Amen: Blessing, and glory, and wisdom, and thanksgiving, and honour, and power, and might, be unto our God for ever and ever. Amen.
13 And one of the elders answered, saying unto me, What are these which are arrayed in white robes? and whence came they?
14 And I said unto him, Sir, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they which came out of great tribulation, and have washed their robes, and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
15 Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.
16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst any more; neither shall the sun light on them, nor any heat.
17 For the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall lead them unto living fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes.
