PRAISE HIM ALWAYS

David’s declaration of his commitment to God and to praise Him did not come in a time of peace for him. This Psalm of David came when he made the choice to change his behavior before Abimelech; who drove him away, causing David to departed.

It’s easier to sing praises to God when all is well and a lot harder when things get tough.

Things are good …”Oh, bless God and His unfailing love and provision.”

Things are tough, “I don’t understand why God is doing this to me, pray for me as I carry this burden and weather this tribulation.” And we make sure everyone understands just how hard things are for us.

Rather than,”Praise you Lord for strengthening me and for sustaining me through this tribulation. I know by your Word that all is in your control and that you have prepared the path to a victorious outcome. I lean on you Lord and not my own understanding.”

In this Psalm, amid David’s trials, he encourages the people and tells of the many ways that those who trust in God are blessed.

Verse 6, “This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.”

Verse 7, “The angel of the LORD encampeth round about then that fear Him, and deliverers him.”

Verse 15, “The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and His ears are open unto their cry.”

Verse 17, “The righteous cry and the LORD heareth, and delivereth them out of their troubles.”

Verse 22, “The LORD redeemeth the soul of His servants: and none of them that trust in Him shall be desolate.”

Praise God when life seems good and when it seems a challenge.

We are blessed, protected, and delivered in so many ways that we are not even aware of and may never know.

The worst day of life with God is better than the best day of life without Him.

I praise you God for extending your grace to one so undeserving, one fraught with numerous faults and imperfections.

I praise you and thank you for delivering me, moment to moment, from my own failings and ignorance, and from the evils of this world.

I praise you for your long-suffering and patience of mankind.

I praise you for your infinite untold blessings. I thank you that you make the knowledge known to those that seek you and that, through Christ Jesus, the lost are saved and ultimate victory is won. Amen

GOD LOVES YOU !!!
