The Lord inhabits the praises of His people.

The Lord inhabits the praises of His people.

I call on Your Name, Lord Jesus. Thank You for hearing us when we cry out to You. Thank You for turning Your heart towards the needs of Your child. You are so wonderful, Lord.

How can I thank You enough for Your constant love? How can I thank You enough for Your tender care? I know many who haven’t learned to recognize You as the anchor in their life. Please help them, Lord, for when everything goes haywire, Your sovereignty still reigns. This, I know and treasure.

You are there before the crisis appears. You are present before we reach the difficult place. Yes, You are there, for You go before us leading and guiding every step of the way when we acknowledge You as Lord. There is a difference, isn’t there?

When He is Lord we desire to please Him in all things.

When He is Lord we desire to please Him in all things.

There is a difference between recognizing You as Savior and recognizing You as Lord.

When You are Lord of our lives, our deepest desire is to love and walk according to Your instruction. We desire to please You in all things. We yearn to know You more as we hunger and thirst after Your Word.

Stir up a hunger within us, Lord. Enlighten the eyes of our hearts to understand just how magnificent You are.

You are amazing.

You are the Rock of Ages, the bright and Morning Star. You, Lord, are our God who tells the oceans how far to go.

Nothing comes our way without Your knowledge, so when we can’t praise You for our circumstances, we can always praise You for who You are.

It is in our praise that the veil parts and we can see You in our midst working everything for our good. Thank You Father.

We praise You Lord, for You alone are worthy of our praise. Blessed be the Name of the Lord.
