March 30, 2023 - Good Morning! It’s Thursday, March 30.
What do you usually say when you hear good news? Well, if you’re like most Christians, you say, “Praise the Lord!” Or, these days, maybe you text PTL!
We find the phrase “Praise the Lord” over 40 times in the Bible, mostly in the Psalms. But The Word encourages us, in countless verses, to give praise to God.
We’re COMMANDED to praise Him. Romans 15:11 - Praise the Lord, all you Gentiles; let all the people praise Him!
Praise Him for WHO He is. Psalm 145:3 - Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised, and His greatness is unsearchable.
Praise Him for WHAT He has done. Psalm 98:2 - Sing a new song to the Lord for He has done marvelous things.
Praise Him in HARD TIMES. Jeremiah 17:14 - Heal me, Lord, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved, for You are the One I praise.
And finally, Psalm 34:1 sums it up - I will praise the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
PTL!
Meet you back here tomorrow,
