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.

The Narrow Path

DATE : September 12, 2021 TOPIC : The Narrow Path BIBLE TEXT: Matthew 7v13&14 – 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 there at: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. The road to eternity is a narrow path, with a single choice. There are no alternatives into eternity. It is either you walk through the narrow way into heaven or you follow the broad path that leads men (souls) to hell fire. God sent His only Son to die for mankind, creating the way, the truth and the life, to all who believe in Christ Jesus. It is either you make a choice to follow Jesus or you walk straight into hell. Many are searching for this path in the wrong direction, places, traditions, customs, beliefs and religions but cannot find it there. Only those that hear about the Kingdom of Heaven coming soon and believe in Jesus Christ shal...

IT RUBS OFF

AUGUST 9th - CAPSULE 9 TOPIC: IT RUBS OFF BIBLE TEXT: Exodus 34 vs. 29 – His face glowed from being in the presence of God. You can only talk convincingly about the God you know, the one you’ve spent time with. Any other God belongs in a theology book, and you will have a hard time selling Him. When Moses came down from the mountain, his face shone. He had been in God’s presence, and when you’ve been there it shows in the way you look, the way you walk and talk, the way you treat your family, the way you spend your money and the way you respond to hurting people. It rubs off!   Paul Cain says “most of us are as close to God as we want to be”. Think about it “Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you” (James 4 vs. 8). How could you possibly be the same when you’ve been with Him? He transforms everything He touches. Listen – He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91 vs. 1). He didn’t say “visit” or...

The Good Slow

DATE 📅 19th September, 2022 TOPIC The Good Slow LIVING SCRIPTURE Habakkuk 2:3 KJV For the vision is yet for an appointed time, but at the end it shall speak, and not lie: though it tarry, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry. A mango tree starts from a seed planted in the soil, from a mango fruit. It usually takes weeks or sometimes days for the leaves to grow or sprout and then it takes years before it can produce those edible mango fruits which we all like to chew. Likewise a young child cannot start behaving like a grown man or handling responsibilities automatically. Just like the fruits that once started as a seed, so is the LORD'S work everyday for His children if only we believe that it is settled. To tarry is to delay a thing or a matter, but the Lord said, it will surely come to pass it will no longer delay. Sometimes we experience the tarrying process and many think God is slow and not responsive to their needs. Many seek out alternati...
