Praise God!

Praise the LORD. Praise, O you servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD. Blessed be the name of the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. From the rising of the sun to its going down, the LORD’s name is to be praised.
– Psalm 113:1-2

What a paradigm shift there would be in our nation and homes if we would praise the name of the Lord from sunrise to sunset. Can you imagine what it would be like to walk through the grocery store and hear praises coming from the loudspeakers instead of disco music from the ’70s?

Imagine hearing praises ring through your neighborhood instead of rock music. What an awesome experience it would be to hear choruses of praise spontaneously break out at your favorite restaurant. Maybe it’s just a dream, but this is what would happen if Psalm 113:1-2 were to become a reality. The very first verse says it begins with the saints of God. Oh, how I long for that day!

There is none greater than You, Jehovah Joshua Messiah! I will praise You and give You the honor due Your name.
