“…I can never stop praising You;
I declare Your glory all day long” (Psalm 71:8 NLT Version).
Greetings,
This past Sunday I was in church and
the worship leader introduced a new song: Do Not Delay. As soon as the music started, I knew I would
love this new tune. I mean, I am pretty good at asking, begging, and pleading
with God to send help quickly. How about you? Plus, I cannot possibly be the
only one who wants her prayers answered ASAP.
And then the lyrics went like this – “Do
not delay your praise to God…”
Immediately I thought “OUCH!” This wasn’t about God doing something for me
but about me worshipping Him for a change.
About me being quick to let Him know how wonderful He is. About me not waiting around to praise His
high and holy name.
I had a tremendous moment of clarity
at church on Sunday, and I hope we will all think about how even though prayer is
important, it is just as important to let God know how much we love Him!
PRAYER: Dear Lord, we praise You and
thank You for the strength, joy, love, peace, hope, provision, health, wisdom,
and protection You give to us every day. You are amazing, and we bless You!
AMEN.
