GOD IS THE FOCUS OF PRAISE, THANKSGIVING, AND WORSHIP

TEXT: PSALM 47:6-7 

MONDAY AUGUST 8th

Key verse: Psalm 47:7 “For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding”.
We are to sing praises to God, give thanks, and worship Him with understanding. This makes the praises and worship of God to be meaningful and pleasant. It makes our praise, thanksgiving, and worships a sacrifice of a sweet-smelling savor, acceptable by God. This entails that:
1. We know Who we praise, thank and worship: God is worthy of praise, thanks, and worship. All creatures praise and worship Him as the One who made all things for His glory. He ordained praise, thanksgiving, and worship of Himself as the duty of His creatures. He redeemed fallen man from sin for His praise and worship. He inhabits the praise and worship of His saints. Praise and worship of God are to the Godhead; the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
2. Praise the name of the Lord: The name of the Lord is His Person. It is the same thing with the Person of the Lord. To praise the name of the Lord means to praise the Lord. Exodus 3:13-15: 
3. Praise God for His Holiness: Revelation 4:8-11. God is holy. His name is holy. His word is holy. His throne is holy. His dwelling place, heaven, is holy. His angels are holy. The saints in heaven are holy. All living creatures in heaven are holy. God lives forever. He is all-powerful and all-wise. He is unique. He sustains the created worlds. He is truthful, faithful, and dependable. His holiness is the reason for His judgment against sin and evildoers, His perfect love for us, the atonement of Jesus Christ, our salvation and sanctification, and our holiness.
4. Praise God for His marvelous works: The creative works of God, visible and invisible, are marvelous. God controls and maintains the universe, Satan and his wicked demons, and sustains men and women of all races on the earth in His marvelous wisdom and power. God's redemptive works among men on earth through the gospel of His Son Jesus Christ require praise and worship.

Thought for the day: Praise and worship are all that man can offer to God

Song for the day: Heavenly Father You are wonderful…

Bible reading for the day:

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
