Let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise the fruit of our lips that confess his name.
Hebrews 13:15

Praise cannot change our circumstances but  certainly can change us in the midst of them. It is a very important part of our faith. When we praise Him continually in all circumstances we are able to win over the circumstances we face. So praise Him when things appear uncertain, and even when you may not feel like it.  Remembering that this life is like a split-second compared to eternity. Bring to Him your sacrifice of praise and lay it at the alter of Jesus your high priest. There is no doubt that He is  worthy of our praise. Allow His love and peace to calm your soul. He will encourage and strengthen, restore and bring hope. The mountain in our lives may still remain but our praise surpasses the mountain and creates a beautiful song that makes its way to the heart of God, who is in the process of removing whatever obstacle is blocking our way. Praise is our expression of love and gratitude for all that He has done, is doing, and is about to do.

Prayer

Thank you for this glorious day, I praise you for all that you are! All that I am is because of you. Your love and peace gives me strength. Words don't adequately express what my heart feels. I give you all of my love and my praise. You are more than worthy! Amen.
