I'm loving all these little devotionals I've posted. And this one is no exception.
For it's all about praise and what better why to end the work week by giving some praise where praise is due. He's worth it. Every day, every hour, and every second.
It doesn't matter where we are in our praise of Him just as long as we continue to do it and we so it for all our worth.
God Bless.
Start with Praise
by Joyce Meyer
Through Him, therefore, let us constantly and at all times offer up to God a sacrifice of praise, which is the fruit of lips that thankfully acknowledge and confess and glorify His name.—Hebrews 13:15
Moses rose early in the morning, built an altar, and offered burnt offerings and peace offerings to God. Then he prayed and read the Book of the Covenant (See Exodus 24:1–7). Thankfully, God no longer asks us to build an altar out of rocks, slaughter a bull, drain its blood, and build a fire in order to honor Him with a burnt sacrifice.
God doesn’t want a dead sacrifice anymore. He wants us, living sacrifices, full of zeal to serve Him each day. All we have to do is wake up and say, “Thank You, Lord. I give You the sacrifice of praise. I give You myself, a living sacrifice, ready to live for You today.”
