Listening & Learning — A Devotional

Psalm 146:1–2

A REMINDER

Psalm 146:1-2. “Praise ye the Lord. Praise the Lord, O my soul. While I live, I will praise the Lord: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being.” A REMINDER. It is true that not everything will come out right, But it is also true that I must walk by faith, not by sight For God Himself knows the end from the beginning, And praise that focuses on Him is more than just hymning.

In the morning, while alone, it is right for me to praise. Or when traveling and meditating on what the scripture says. There are other times when meeting in fellowship with saints, Something special happens when, as one, we join to praise.

For God is alone in splendor, and in His character, there is no fault. He has supreme glory, and life itself by Him is dealt. Integrity in its highest form; moral glories on display – Putting every thought of His person together would take an eternal day.

Earth, He created with a word from Him; everything He did was good. To me, the universe is beyond description; to God, it’s His neighborhood. Everything He designed is perfect, so I can see God without seeing His face.

From heaven to earth and back again – it all reveals His grace.

It is only right that I praise the Lord – everything around is a reminder To me, that I am His, and though men around get blinder – God has revealed Himself through Christ; Jesus is God in human flesh. Those who know God and Christ are those who, with salvation, are blest.

“Father God, I am reminded at the beginning of this day that it is a good thing to praise God. To offer praise glorifies Thee, so I offer it now and by Thy grace – will continue to do so, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
