Sunday, November 6th - Psalm 145

Good Morning!

I was so excited that it was lighter this morning when I got up!  I know it will get darker as winter arrives, but I will enjoy the earlier sunrise as it lasts!  :o)  Hope you enjoyed your extra hour of sleep, I did. 

Lisa's tweet: LMRMinistries: Psalm 145: God not only gives us what we need, but also - at times - what we desire.  That is NOT why we praise Him; that's why we thank Him.

This Psalm is a psalm of praise and thanksgiving!  Gos provides everything we need and then some!  He listens when we cry out and He comforts in times of stress and hurt.

The word praise, sing and celebrate are used eight times in this passage and the words exalt and extol are used four times.  Verse two says, "Everyday I will praise You and extol Your Name forever."  Daily!  Verse 3 continues and says that God is great and no one can fathom His greatness.  Verse four indicates that every generation will share with the next of God's majesty, His miracles, and His splendor.  Missions!

Look at the descriptions of God:  King, Great, Worthy of praise, Majestic, Gracious, Compassionate, Slow to anger, Rich in Love, Powerful, Good, Righteous, Mighty, Faithful, Provider, Trustworthy, Always Present, Truth, Protector, and Savior. 
Wow!  And these are just a few!  We serve an awesome God. 

Take time to re-read this Psalm and praise Him and thank Him for something personal to you at each verse.  Make it a song of praise to God and sing it to Him.  Praise God for who He is in your life. 

"My mouth will speak in praise of the Lord.  Let every creature praise His Holy Name forever and ever."  verse 21

Have a great day!
