Text: Psalms 103:1-2 (KJV)
1 Bless the Lord, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name.2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits.
It is a wrong image formation as people do in a time of challenge, that there is nothing to thank God for, and that is because they have not thought of God's goodness in their life as they tend forget all the beautiful memories. In our scripture above, David counted all the blessings God has done for him, and he instructed his soul also to bless God. He was so thankful to the point that his body could not be enough, and he commanded his soul to also bless God. Some of us will say “his soul”, but yes “his soul”. Most of us are so busy that even our soul is also busy with the concerns of life, but we must learn to command our soul to bless God intentionally which makes our worship a winning weapon. Also, when we worship and praise God deeply, ideas start rolling in from the realm to unanswered questions of our lives.
The kind of thanksgiving we give to God needs to change. We need to worship and bless God with our all, as said in our text above, so we should not exempt our souls. Always remember, God appreciates genuine and heartfelt worship, and that is what we should give to Him as a tool for triumph. 2 Corinthians 9:7b- for God loveth a cheerful giver. John 4:24- God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. Our mouths and life has been filled with good things, so we are not meant to keep our mouths shut, instead, we are meant to move to another level of intimate worship as a weapon to our victory and an act of reverence to God in JESUS NAME.
PRAYER POINTS:
1) Father, please help us to worship God with understanding as our victories are embedded in our heartfelt worship in Jesus name.
2) Oh Lord, please take us to the point of brokenness at the altar of worship, in Jesus name.
ACTION QUOTE: Can you imagine that battle can be settled in your next worship experience?
