365 Days of Praise

“Who is like You among the gods, O Lord?
Who is like You, majestic in holiness,
Awesome in praises, working wonders?

Exodus 15:11

Moses sang praises to God because he witnessed God miraculously dry up the Red Sea so the Israelites could cross it. “Your right hand, O LORD, is majestic in power, Your right hand, O LORD, shatters the enemy,” Ex 15:6. Can you imagine if Moses had stood at the cross and witnessed Christ die. Then, if Moses had witnessed Jesus eating fish three days later. What praises would have flowed from his mouth? God defeated an enemy far greater than the Egyptian army. He defeated Satan. He defeated the sting of death: sin. Majestic in power. Majestic in holiness. That is our God!

You, O LORD, are MAJESTIC in HOLINESS, MAJESTIC in POWER! I bow before You in praise!

“Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram caught by its horns. He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son. So Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide.”

Genesis 22:13

In Hebrew, “The LORD Will Provide” is “Jehovah Yireh,” meaning the LORD will see to it.” God had commanded Abraham to sacrifice his son as an ultimate test of his obedience.  It foreshadowed what God the Father would do in sacrificing His beloved Son for us. God saw to it that Abraham had a substitute to offer in the place of Isaac: a ram.  God saw to it that we had a sacrifice to offer in our place: Jesus. The LORD Provided His SON. What a great PROVIDER we have in the Father and Son. Worship them.  

Lord God, I praise You, Jehovah Yireh, The LORD Will Provide. Thank You for providing Your Son to pay my sin debt. I worship You! 

Celebrate Jehovah Yireh and our Risen Savior with us HERE.  

“The next day John saw Jesus coming to him and said,

‘Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!'”

John 1:29

Jesus, thank You, LAMB OF GOD, who gave up Your precious life to pay for my sins. I love You!

Celebrate our Risen Lord! Matt Maher sings, “Christ is Risen” HERE.  

“You, O Lord, are a shield about me, My glory, and the One who lifts my head.”

Psalm 3:3

Have you ever had your head “hangin” low? Perhaps you were ashamed. Or, maybe you were just down. Imagine…God sees you and cares how you’re doing. He wants to lift your head. What happens when He does? Our eyes turn from looking down to looking up – into His face and glory. If you’re down and out today, pause. Take a moment to look to God in prayer. Let Him lift your eyes to the hope and glory you have in Him. 

I praise you, God, the LIFTER OF MY HEAD!

“You are my lamp, O Lord;
And the Lord illumines my darkness.”

2 Samuel 22:29

If we hurriedly read David’s words in 2 Samuel 22:29, we might get the impression that he’s sailing through life with God as His lamp. But if we listen to David’s words in the context in which they’re written, we learn that he’s in the dark, battling an enemy, and has walls he needs to get over. (2 Samuel 22:30) Are you in the dark in some area of your life? Are you battling anything? Are there some walls you need to get over or through? God is your LAMP, too. 

Thank you, Lord, for being my LAMP and for showing me how to navigate through my day and this dark world!

“And on His robe and on His thigh He has a name written, “KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.”

Revelation 19:16

Anyone can call themselves “lord.” Anyone can “lord” themselves over another. But no one is inherently the LORD of LORDS except our LORD. Does that make your heart sing? Does it put a smile on your face? It should. 

You, O LORD, are LORD OF LORDS. My heart sings in praise of You!

“Even before there is a word is on my tongue, behold, O LORD, you know it all.” 

 Psalm 139:4

God is all knowing. He knows our innermost thoughts. Romans 8:26,27. He knows the future. Acts 11:27,28. There is no one to whom we can go who is more trustworthy. Bow before Him. Tell Him your needs. Confess your secrets. Ask for His help.   

Lord, I praise you and thank you for KNOWING ALL in my life and in this world. You are omniscient!

“Righteous and true are Your ways, King of the nations!”

Revelation 15:3

Some people think God is whom they decide Him to be. In other words, they form in their minds what God is like and voila – out comes their god. The fact is, God is who He is regardless of what we think. We do well to base our understanding on His revelation of Himself: King of the Nations who will judge the world in righteousness. 

I praise you, KING of the NATIONS, and give honor and glory to You!

“He who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords”

1 Timothy 6:15

The apostle Paul was given a glimpse of heaven. It was with tremendous conviction that he therefore dedicated his life to serving God. Were we to have the same glimpse, perhaps our lips would flow in unwavering praise as Paul’s.  “He who is the blessed and only Sovereign, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone possesses immortality and dwells in unapproachable light, whom no man has seen or can see. To Him be honor and eternal dominion! Amen,” 1 Timothy 6:15-16. Do we believe God is the King of kings who dwells in unapproachable light? If so, may our lips flow in praise. 

You are the KING OF KINGS and Lords of lords; I praise you, blessed, Sovereign KING!

“The Lord is your keeper…
 The Lord will protect you from all evil;
He will keep your soul.”

Psalm 121:5,7

Keep: guard, preserve, protect.  To whom can you entrust your soul?  Day in, day out, and ultimately, who do you want preserving and protecting you from evil and from “the pit of nothingness” (Isaiah 38:17)? “God” is the answer most give. Yet, do we actually walk in the confident awareness that we’re not walking alone; that God is our keeper? God guards, preserves, and protect us in ways we can’t see. We may have had a horrible day and felt we were in a “pit.” Yet, we have no idea what evil never touched us or our loved ones because God was guarding us. We have no concept of the eternal pit from which God keeps us. Today is a good day to look heavenward in praise of the Keeper our our soul.

Lord, I praise You for being the KEEPER of my soul, for protecting me from all evil, and for keeping my soul from the pit of nothingness.
