The #Bible contains numerous references to praising God, with many #psalms and other passages devoted specifically to this theme--Psalm 100:4; 103:1-2; 147:1; 150:6... These verses, and so many others like them, emphasize the importance of #praising #God with our words, songs, and actions, and of acknowledging His goodness and #faithfulness to us. Praising God is seen as a natural and essential part of the relationship between God and His people. Let's look at 7 reasons to praise God today.
​The Bible contains numerous references to praising God, with many psalms and other passages devoted specifically to this theme.

"Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name." Psalm 100:4

"Praise the Lord, my soul; all my inmost being, praise His holy name. Praise the Lord, my soul, and forget not all His benefits." Psalm 103:1-2

"Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him." Colossians 3:16-17
These verses, and others like them, emphasize the importance of praising God with our words, songs, and actions, and of acknowledging His goodness and faithfulness to us. Praising God is seen as a natural and essential part of the relationship between God and His people.

7 reasons to praise God today:

  1. He watches over you.
    "Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land. For I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” Genesis 28:15
  2. He knows you.
    "But now thus says the Lord, He who created you, O Jacob, He who formed you, O Israel: 'Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are Mine.'" Isaiah 43:1
  3. He upholds you.
    "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." Isaiah 41:10
  4. He sings over you.
    "The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty One Who will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you by His love; He will exult over you with loud singing." Zeph. 3:17
  5. He will never leave you.
    "Teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:20
  6. He guides you.
    "To give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.” Luke 1:79
  7. He cares about you.
    "Casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you." 1 Peter 5:7
What are you praising God for today?

We have much to praise God for. We need to make time to intentionally see His hand in our lives and praise Him for who He is and what He has done.

Agreed, Barbara!! It has to be intentional because we are not naturally bent to praise Him and be grateful. We're human. We get busy. We forget. We let a little bit of entitlement slip in from time to time—or more often than that. :-/

Today, I am praising Him for His guidance!
"To give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.” Luke 1:79

My feet ALWAYS need guiding!!

I love and agree with all these 7 reasons to praise. May I add an 8th? We say at our church all the time, God inhabits the praise of His people, based on Psalm 22:3.

"God inhabits the praise of His people." I love that, Jerralea!!

"Yet You are holy, enthroned on the praises [dwelling in the praises] of Israel." Psalm 22:3

God dwells in our praises. :) If that doesn't make you want to praise Him more I don't know what would.
