“Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth forever.”-Psalm 106:1 KJV
You would agree with me that God has truly been faithful to you. Despite the global economic downturn, the various natural and man-made disasters and diverse challenges, the Lord still preserved you. He has been your shield and buckler. Indeed, our God is worthy of all praise and adoration. Therefore, I encourage you to thank God. Thank Him for His loving-kindness and tender mercies towards you. Thank Him for preserving you! Thank Him because you are not in the best of hospitals. Indeed, He has done much more for you.
There is so much to be thankful for. If you can think, then you can thank. Take time to think of where you were this time last year and where you are today. Yes! You might not be where you aspired to be, but you are certainly not where you used to be. Touch yourself! You are still around! That is enough reason to give Him praise. You can never quantify His mercies towards you. God truly deserves incredible praise. Learn to praise Him at all times. Praise Him in all the languages that you know. Praise Him in tongues and in your understanding.
I believe without any shadow of doubt in my heart that as you develop a lifestyle of praise, your life will be filled with an incredible harvest.
God will exceed all of your expectations. Only the sound of rejoicing will be heard from your household. I’m so excited because I know that the Blessing of God is manifesting in every area of your life in an unprecedented way. So remain expectant. God will cause you to laugh and they that hear your testimony shall laugh with you in Jesus’ name.
