Devotion 12/15, Sing unto the Lord
I will praise God’s name in song and glorify him with thanksgiving. This will please the Lord more than an ox, more than a bull with its horns and hoofs. The poor will see and be glad — you who seek God, may your hearts live!
Psalm 69:30-32
Happiness is circumstantial but the joy of the Lord is deep-rooted. His joy comes from and with love, peace, and hope. He is our amazing grace and Our Lord is meant to be shared, intentionally. We should be a reflection His grace in everything we say and do.
God’s generosity, which evokes our praise, should stir our generosity, which in turn blesses others and leads them to praise God, too!
Holy God, Almighty and majestic King, you are worthy of all honor and praise. You have done wonderful and mighty things. You have poured out your blessings upon me. You have kept your promises and provided me with the way of salvation. Please empower and strengthen me as I commit myself to bless, serve, and encourage others and point them to your glory and generosity by my joyous praise. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
