Let Every Breath Be Filled With Praise

Psalm 150:6

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

We are stirred up in our hearts to praise God.  We are first moved to praise Him for the magnificence of His creation.  We are inspired by the Holy Spirit to praise Him for His holiness and His love expressed through the redemptive work of His Son, Jesus.  We learn to praise Him because of His power and His glory that we see expressed in our lives every day.  

Let us praise God out of the faith that He has built in us through His Holy Spirit.  Let us praise God as we are comforted by His goodness and His grace.  Let us praise God with the joy of the expectation of life in His eternal kingdom. Let us praise God with the unshakeable confidence that the victory is ours through God's greatest gift to us, His Son, Jesus. 

Let us praise God with the love and delight that He alone has placed in our hearts.  Let our every breath be filled with praise for Our Savior, Our Redeemer, Our King.  Let us praise Him by allowing our lives to be living testimonies of the Son of God who has come to dwell within us.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, we lift our voices toward You in high praise.  We bring our thanksgiving for Your precious Lamb, Jesus.  We proclaim His holiness and His righteousness.  We give thanks for His presence in our lives. We pray Father that You open our eyes so that we may see the presence of Your Son in the tiny things in life as well as the large things.  May our every breath praise Him as we come know just how dear He is to You and to us. We ask all these things in the name of the One whose steadfast love never ceases, Jesus Christ.
