SCRIPTURE: Psalm (NIV) 150:1 Praise the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens.
2 Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness.
3 Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet, praise him with the harp and lyre,
4 praise him with tambourine and dancing, praise him with the strings and flute,
5 praise him with the clash of cymbals, praise him with resounding cymbals.
6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD.
OBSERVATION: For everyone that breathes, there are many reasons to praise the LORD. There are many ways to praise the LORD. There are many places to praise the LORD. There are many instruments to use in praising the LORD.
Even in creation, God has provided us many ways for personal praise. Consider our hands; lifting them, clapping them, waving them. Consider our mouth; speaking, singing, shouting. Consider our posture; kneeling, standing, leaping, laying before the Lord. Consider our emotions; weeping, laughing, waiting. We were made to praise the Lord! Our bodies were designed to praise the Lord!
APPLICATION: To go a day without praising the LORD is unthinkable. To not have a reason to praise the LORD, I would have to have my eyes blinded, my ears deafened, my tongue removed, my memory cleared, and my breathing stilled.
PRAYER: Lord, may I consider any day incomplete until I have given you praise. Amen
