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...

THE EASY WAY

Date 📅 23rd September, 2022 Topic The Easy Way Living Scripture Matthew 7:13 KJV Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: There are many ways and roads in life both spiritually and physically but the paths we choose to walk on determines our destination at the end. This world is full of sin and disobedience and selfishness, it has a wide gate welcoming everyone and it's paths are broad to gather much people in order to destroy their lives. Lying has become part of the way of so many today even some part of the church lie and claim it's the easy way out of troubles and confrontations. The easy way or short cut as it is often mentioned is not the way of life neither the way of righteousness. Looking for the easy way is looking for death, it is an invitation to false spirits that corrupts and pollutes. Let us seek to know the true path that leads to life and life in...

PECULIAR PEOPLE

Date 📅 31st August, 2022 Topic Peculiar People  Living Scripture 1 Peter 2:9 KJV But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: In the beginning God the Father was and is and is to come for a particular kind of people as He once did with Adam and eve in Eden. He created the heavens and the earth and everything that lives and breathes. And by the power of His Word He made man in His own image and likeness. Therefore man was made right from the beginning to be peculiar and fit for the glory of God. There was no plan in God's holy palm to reduce man to a pauper, it was our sinful ways and disobedience that caused us to fall short of this beautiful inheritance our first father once partook of. A peculiar People stands different, out of the ordinary, unusual and unpredictable from a specific clan or place. The scripture reads t...
