Continuous Praise

I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. Psalm 34:1

Throughout a believer’s life, there will be tests and trials and mounting tribulations; some highs, some lows, sometimes a yes and other times a no but whilst this has been the reality there is also another side to all this.

When one understands and accepts that no matter the lot that he has seemingly been dealt, it does not change who or how God is. Yet the way in which he reacts will very well determine how he is able to wade through and further overcome adversity.

Brothers and sisters, happy are those who delight in the Lord, those who trust in Him and wait on Him. In today’s watchword the Psalmist declared that he would praise the Lord at all times, in and out of season as some would say but David did not simply end there but rather he went on to declare that praises would always and continually come from his mouth.

Praises are what help to fuel and strengthen the believers walk in faith. It enables us to maintain an active relationship in which we are able to enjoy open communication with God.

Paul in writing to the Thessalonians encouraged them to, ‘Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you’
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Friends, as we reflect today, I pray that praises will rise from within us, that our praises will not only be continuous but also contagious and that God will receive our offerings of praise.

Amen
