LET ME BE SINGING

READ:

Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.
-Psalm 150:6

THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Psalms 148-150
1 Corinthians 15:29-58

When I asked a friend how his mother was getting along, he told me that dementia had robbed her of the ability to remember a great many names and events from the past. "Even so," he added, "she can still sit down at the piano and, without sheet music, beautifully play hymns by memory."
Plato and Aristotle wrote about the helping, healing power of music 2,500 years ago. But centuries before that, the biblical record was saturated with song.
From the first mention of Jubal, "the father of all those who play the harp and flute" (Genesis 4:21), to those who "sing the song of Moses, the servant of God and the song of the Lamb" (Revelation 15:3), the pages of the Bible resonate with music. The Psalms, often called "the Bible's songbook," point us to the love and faithfulness of God. They conclude with an unending call to worship, "Let everything that has breath praise the LORD. Praise the LORD!" (Psalm 150:6).
Today, we need God's ministry of music in our hearts as much as any time in history. Whatever each day brings, may the evening find us singing, "To You, O my Strength, I will sing praises; for God is my defense, my God of mercy" (59:17). - David McCasland
Lord, I don't know what will come this day or farther into the future, but I'm grateful that You're by my side. Grant me a spirit of praise and thanksgiving in whatever lies ahead.

Praise to God comes naturally when you count your blessings.

Today God is calling you (3)

I have prayed for you, that your faith will not fail.' Luke 22:32 NASB

God wants you to do His will, but you'll never reach the place of spiritual maturity in which you're free of Satan. You can overcome him, but you can't eliminate him. Look at Peter. He had only one gear: overdrive. He was always...More
