Breath to Breath in Praise and Worship

Psalm 150:6

Let everything that has breath praise the LORD!  Praise the LORD!

Today's world can literally take our breath away.  Our workplaces tend to be grueling places that are filled with stress.  Our families are rife with ongoing calamity that can suck the life out of us.  The fear of evil in the world around us is now a constant burden.  At any moment, the world is ready to steal our peace. 

Fortunately, our peace is but a quiet prayer away.  A simple praise moment with the Lord and we are restored.  A few minutes in His Word and we are strengthened.

Praise the Lord for He gave us the breath of life.  Praise the Lord for He sustains our every breath.  Praise the Lord for He takes away our breath when He is ready to receive us.  Praise the Lord for He provides the way that allows us to breath our last breath in the comfort, peace and confidence of our salvation.  May we use every breath we take to worship Him.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, we thank You for the breath of life that You have given us.  We thank You for sustaining our breath on earth.  We thank You for providing Your Son, Jesus, so that the breath of life will continue in us for all eternity.  We surrender our every breath to You, Father.  We pray that each breath we take will worship You.  We pray that each breath we take will praise You.  We pray that each breath we take will bring honor and glory to You, Your Son and the Holy Spirit.  We ask all these things in the name of the Life Giving Spirit, Jesus Christ.
