Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, And His praise in the congregation of the godly ones. Let Israel be glad in his Maker; Let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King. Let them praise His name with dancing; Let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre. For the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the afflicted ones with salvation. Let the godly ones exult in glory; Let them sing for joy on their beds. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand.  Psalms 149:1-6 NASB

Yes my friends … There is every reason to “praise the name of the Lord our God, O praise His name - forevermore!” 

O Praise His Name forevermore!

God, thank You. Thank You for this past week of testing, of failures, of victories. Yes Lord, we trust Your will over our lives!  Thank You for the joy that sitting with You brings. We want our life to be a pursuit of the eternal- oh Holy Spirit, we absolutely rely on You to transform our hearts; to enable our to remain on You  - to see the things above that will last forever. We pray for the courage to repent of our wrongs that break Your heart, give us instead humble wisdom to allow You Lord Jesus to live through us in a way that makes our daily steps a reflection of Your kingdom.  We pray hope, we pray healing, we pray joy, we pray deliverance, we pray reconciliation, we pray love, we pray rejoicing, we pray salvation, we pray revival, we pray forgiveness in the name of Jesus Christ, amen!
