LIVING A LIFE OF PRAISE

JUNE 23RD – CAPSULE 23

TOPIC: LIVING A LIFE OF PRAISE

BIBLE TEXT: PSALM 119 VS 164 – Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgements.


The psalmist (king David) lived a wonderful life, as a Shepherd first, then a warrior and a leader before he became a mighty King in Israel. With his busy lifestyle, King David lived a life of absolute praise unto the Lord. Seven times a day he lifted up his praise to the Lord to minister to God. Nothing and no one could take this lifestyle from him and he did so till the end. 

He was successful at praising the Lord with all his heart because of the love of God, he valued God’s word and sought to know God more. This wonderful man was consistent in his service of praise unto the Lord from a teenager – to an adult, through every victory and battles he faced, he praised God. In his palace he was not ashamed to dance unto the Lord nor act too royal or form important before the Lord. And In the presence of his servants he demonstrated true praise to God. 

Another wonderful example is our Lord Jesus Christ, who lived a life of praise. For out of the abundance of a praiseful life, flows streams of thanksgiving. A thanks giver is one who is living by praise, such an individual can be called a true  worshipper. 

Let us adopt this life style and render quality time of worship to God for His goodness and love and mercies we receive from God when we return to praise Him. Our praise meter should begin to read from today. Beloved, come out of ungratefulness and walk into a life of praising the Lord.


Prayer: Help me Lord, I want to live a life of praise in service to your will.

Insight: A life of praise is a life well spent.

NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH

Date - December 28th, 2021 Topic - NEITHER HEIGHT NOR DEPTH Bible Text - For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. - Romans 8:38-39 Your parents love you. You may be able to do something that makes them angry, but you will never be able to do anything that makes them stop loving you. Try to imagine this kind of love and then multiply it by infinity. That’s the love that Jesus has for you. That’s the love that God has for you. God made you. He loved you enough to create you. He loved you enough to give you free will. Then he loved you enough to give you his Son. He loved you enough to forgive you for turning away from him. This is an impossible love! This is a love that we may never understand. But we don’t have to understand it. We just have to a...

Breakfast with Jesus

DATE 24th June, 2023 TOPIC Breakfast with Jesus LIVING SCRIPTURE Psalm 65:4 KJV Blessed is the man whom thou choosest, and causest to approach unto thee, that he may dwell in thy courts: we shall be satisfied with the goodness of thy house, even of thy holy temple. The Psalmist was a peculiar man and one that feared the LORD and walked in the paths of righteousness. In his meditation and Psalms, he learnt to dine with Jesus Christ early and through Psalms, from the 63rd to the 66th, he found a way to breakfast with Jesus. The first contact we should have everyday is Jesus Christ, to receive of His glorious satisfaction early, contentment and to be filled with the goodness and mercy He gives His children daily. When a child eats with his parents there's that joy and peace within, such comfort and full assurance. Jesus Christ always ate with our Heavenly Father while He was here on earth, He sought after the LORD daily and was satisfied with the glory and goodness of the Father. Each...

Forgiveness of Sins

DATE - April 7th, 2022 TOPIC - Forgiveness of Sins BIBLE TEXT - Acts 5:31 AMP God exalted Him to His right hand as Prince and Savior and Deliverer, in order to grant repentance to Israel, and [to grant] forgiveness of sins. Apostle Peter stood tall before the council (Sanhedrin, Jewish High Court) to speak with boldness about a God who Saves and sets free any sinner from the power of sin. As a man who has been shown mercy though a man once filled with sinful ways, the Holy Spirit quickened him through his personal testimony of experiencing true forgiveness of sins before the Jewish High Court. Peter was a local fisherman with no knowledge of the gospel truth, who lived as he pleased. Until he encountered Jesus when Christ was walking by the sea of Galilee and he spotted Simon Peter who was in his boat struggling to catch a few fishes for days. Like many out there today who are living in sin and still struggling to make ends meet, Jesus is passing through that street, area...
