When we praise God we glorify Him, and when we glorify Him we are doing His will. We worship God through our praise. Do you find the more you know about God the more you want to express it? The more we express our love and praise for God, the more we are receptive to learning more about God and what he has done and can continue to do in people's lives.
In order to praise God we must have a personal understand of who God is and what He is all about. In other words we must have reason to thank God by understanding what He has done and continues to do for us.
In Psalm 50 and verse 23, the psalmist reminds us: He who sacrifices thank offerings honors me, and he prepares the way so that I may show him the salvation of God.
If you only had one thing in this world, what would you want it to be?
Money, home, family, friends, possessions are all things we often thank God for, or wish we had more of. But do we ever really acknowledge that God is all we need? My own answer would probably have to be a no. What about you?
We should not ever take God's presence in our life for granted, not because He will ever leave us, but simply because we must never forget the amazing and wonderful things God has done and continues to do in our lives.
Today I acknowledge and thank God for being "all I need in this world". I urge you to do the same.
All I Want (Michael W Smith)
All I have in this world Is fire from above All I have in this world Is you And all the journeys I have walked I know you've walked them too All I want is to be faithful All I want is you
All I have is a love That set my world on fire Let it fall, let it burn in me And oh to be a friend of God is all that I desire All I want is to be faithful All I want is you
All I want is you All I want is you All I want is you Is you
All I have in this world Is fire from above All I have in this world Is you And all the journeys I have walked I know you've walked them too All I want is to be faithful All I want is you
All I want is you All I want is you Da...oh oh oh All I want is you Is you
I'm married to Sandy, we have no children but we do have a cat called Tigger who we've had since he was 6 weeks old (he was a wedding present - we got him on our 1st anniversary).
I'm a christian and have attended the Salvation Army all my life. I play trombone in the Bellshill Salvation Army Band. I'm also the webmaster of the band's website.
