Heavenly Father, I praise You for life, salvation, and the hope of eternity. I praise You for all creation, that we are born into a life of free will, and that You desire a relationship with us even though we have sinned and rebelled. I ask that You help me take command of this morning and shake all the evil out of it.
Holy Spirit Christ said, “Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven. [Matthew 5:16 MEV]” Help me to shine as bright as a star to glorify Your light and salvation. My heart is filled today with praise, and I couldn’t begin to count my blessings. I praise You for the comfort, joy, and love You bring to us, especially to me. I praise You for the grace and mercy that You extend to me and for the salvation You have offered me. As I learn patience for others it makes me realize how much patience You have had towards me as I navigate through life and work to eliminate sinful decisions from my life.
Our Father, which are in heaven, You are worthy of our praise. Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord from the heavens; Praise in the heights! Praise Him all His Angels; Praise Him, all His hosts! Let them praise the name of the Lord. For His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and heaven. Praise the Lord! Praise God in His Sanctuary; praise Him in His mighty heaven! Praise Him for His mighty works; praise His unequaled greatness! Praise Him with a blast of the ram’s horn; praise Him with the lyre and harp! Praise Him with the tambourine and dancing; praise Him with strings and flutes! Praise Him with a clash of cymbals; praise Him with loud clanging cymbals. Let everything that breathes sing praises to the Lord! Praise the Lord! Amen and Amen! [Psalms 148:1&2, 13; Psalm 150, NLT]
