I'd like to join! I started last night and didn't even know it. Lol! I usually fall asleep with my TV on but last night I turned off the TV and played gospel music instead. I felt so much more peaceful when I woke up this morning.

Thank you Lord for all you do for my family and me!

Thank you for allowing my friend who was hit by a jeep on Monday to walk out the hospital the same day!

Thank you for allowing me to survive the round of layoffs on my job. Tuesday was supposed to be my last day but guess where I'm typing this message from... I'm at work!!! GOD IS SO GOOD!

During the holiday season it’s easy to get distracted and lose focus.

I had to come back and say thank you for this comment. I havent' even begun to think 'Holiday' season and already I've been distracted. :drunk:

All to say how much your thread is ON TIME!

:thankyou:

I praise God because with HIM is where I need to be always and forever.

Simple as that.

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica]But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord charged you, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.

Joshua 22:5

Psalm 122
I was glad when they said to me,
Let us go into the house of the LORD.

I thank you Lord for your encouraging word and the truth that was spoken.
I continuously lift your name up because you are my God. I thank you for Life and Hope in You. :heart2:
May your gospel continue to be preached!

I read this sweet pslam to DH this morning as he laid in bed:

Psalm 100
A psalm. For giving grateful praise.

1 Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands.

2 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

3 Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

5 For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.


Thank you, Father, for my DH, who loves me in sickness and in health... :Rose:

:thankyou: Laela for posting this Word for it has surely placed a Praise in my heart.

I Praise God for His entire Word...with my whole heart.

I Praise God that His Mercies and Truth doesn't stop >>>> HERE <<<<< with us. But that it endures, it lives on, it continues, it is perpetual, it is incorruptable, it is unstoppable, it is from everlasting to everlasting, it is Who He Is... throughout ALL generations.

Moving on to our children and our children's children and to all genarations thereafter...His Truth endures. Oh YES! It does indeed.

Praise the Name of Jesus who has been passed down to us and to our seed which exceed the sands and the stars... Glory to God... :amen:

This song is on my heart today. It focuses your mind on to whom your praise and worship need to be directed.

Flow to You by Bishop Paul Morton

Flow to you
Flow to you

Let the river of my worship flow to you
Lord I pray, in all I do
Let the river of my worship flow to You

Like streams in the valley, (they) swell with the rain
Let the songs of my heart, rise to bless Your name

And Flow to you
Flow to you
Let my worship, flow to you

(x3)

Let all my worship
Let all my praise
Flow to you
Flow to you
(x4)

Let all my worship
Let all my praise
Flow to you
Nobody but you

I missed reading this post...

God's best for you and your precious son. :Rose: His generation relies on us to know God; so he's blessed to have a mom who fears the Lord and won't give up on him!




I think this is THE challenge for me. Sorry for not waiting till Dec 1.

I moved to a rurual area up north a few years ago and never found a church home that fit. To say I've been in a rut is an understatement.

I am taking this opportunity to praise God for the areas of my life I'm struggling with.

Glory be to God my ADHD 14 year old will stop denying God and accept Jesus as her personal savior.


I rejoyce and praise him that our debt will be delt with and we will prosper again.

In him

Thank you father for your grace, love and mercy. I sing this song to you!


For every time that You protected me
When I didn’t know Your name
(Lord I say thank you).
How You loved on me and cared for me,
when I didn’t return the same, I.
(Lord I say thank you)

Now when it seemed like I was losing and I felt like giving up,
I (Lord I) I wanna say (say thank you).
Your love rushed in like a mighty flood and lifted me above, and I (Lord I)
I wanna say (say thank you).

Chorus
I’ll be thanking You and praising You for the rest of my life.
For I’ve come to know the power of Your love and sacrifice.
(thank You for your sacrifice)
I appreciate all that You do
(everything You do, and I want to say)
Just want to say thank you

Well, how You kept your hand upon me though I’ve often gone astray,
Yeah I ….(Lord I say thank you).
And how Your spirit gently led me back to safety in Your way,
I wanna say, Lord I say thank You.
(and I’ll be thanking You)
Chorus
I’ll be thanking You and praising You for the rest of my life.
For I’ve come to know the power of Your love and sacrifice.
I appreciate all that You do (I just want to say)
Just wanna to say thank you (all of my days) ,
Just want to say thank you.

Bridge
(And I’ll give You praise)…just want to say thank you. Lord I thank You.
(Lord I thank You. Yes I do.
Right now I just want to say thank you)
I wanna say! (I wanna say wanna say)
I wanna say thank you. (I just want to say)
I gotta say! (Gotta say, gotta say it, thank you) I gotta say thank you!

(Now you’ve been good) I want to say
(And I want to say)
I want to say thank you
(That you’ve been kind)
I’ve gotta say
(Gotta say, please just let me say)
I’ve gotta say thank you
(You made a way)
I want to say
(You let me see a brand new day)
I want to say thank you
(You never let me go astray)
I gotta say
(And I gotta gotta gotta say)
I gotta say thank you
(Thank you for my family)
I want to say
(Thank you lord for keeping me)
I want to say thank you
(Thank you Lord for bringing me through)
I’ve got to say
(And I thank you for my husband too)
I gotta say thank you
(Thank you Lord for saving me)
I wanna say
(Thank you Lord for loving me)I wanna say thank you
(And I gotta gotta gotta say)
I’ve gotta say
(I want to say, gotta say thank you)
I’ve gotta say thank you

Father God... Thank you for giving us the very honour of being your children and that we can call you our 'Father'.

I mean this is mind blowing!!! :spinning::drunk::spinning:

YOU... GOD YOU are OUR FATHER!

How could anyone not feel so loved just to know this.

Even when I've behaved at my very worse, you still call me your daughter. I can never say thank you, enough. Yet I thank you with my whole heart.

I love you, Dad! :kiss: :love3: :love3; :love3:

Uyahalalela - "We Praise Your Name"


David’s Prayer
10 David praised the LORD in the presence of the whole assembly, saying,
“Praise be to you, LORD,
the God of our father Israel,
from everlasting to everlasting.
11 Yours, LORD, is the greatness and the power
and the glory and the majesty and the splendor,
for everything in heaven and earth is yours.
Yours, LORD, is the kingdom;
you are exalted as head over all.
12 Wealth and honor come from you;
you are the ruler of all things.
In your hands are strength and power
to exalt and give strength to all.
13 Now, our God, we give you thanks,
and praise your glorious name.

Psalm 63

O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;

To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.

Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.

My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:

When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.

Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.

My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.

They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.

But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.

This ... God so did in my life. He upheld me through it all so I would not fall. :love2:

Thank you heavenly father for understanding the language of tears. When I didn't know what else to say to you and all I could do was cry, you knew I needed your loving arms to be wrapped around me.

You gave me the peace that you promised in your word. The peace that surpasses all understanding. Thank you father!

Psalm 146: 1-2
Praise the Lord, O my soul.
While I live I will praise the Lord; I will sing praises to the Lord while I have my being.

Lord, the enemy tries to deceive us into thinking that we have to be perfect or in a perfect situation to give you praise. But I’m so glad that Jesus had already paid the price and redeemed us unto righteousness.

You created us to worship you, honor you, and adore you. While I still have breath in my body I’m going to worship you. I’m not going to focus on my desires and wants but lift up your name. I’m not going to wait until things are perfect; You alone deserve the highest praise.

Like Hezekiah said, the graves can’t worship You.
So while I have this opportunity I’m going to praise you and magnify your name. Singing Praise is What I Do by William Murphy.:love3:

Abba, Father, You are worthy to be praised today. It took that angel 21 days to push past the adversary to deliver the message to Daniel. But he got there! He made it... because it was Your prophetic Will.

There's just something about praising You when I'm 'not feeling it'...pushing past any doubt, fear, anxiety, worry that Satan tries to toss in my path, like banana peels...all because he knows You have angels battling on our behalf in the heavenlies. Even after a 'delay', your Word comes right on time to complete the spiritual transaction. I'm in awe of Your Glory.

Lord, You're Holy! I lift You up, and magnify Your Name...

Thank you Father for loving me and not allowing anything to separate me from your love. Without you, I'd be nothing, but with you I can do all things thru Christ who strenghtens me.

There were days in this storm where I thought I'd lose my mind, but you kept me Father. No one but you! Thank you God!

Lord I thank you that you are "not a man that You should lie, neither the son of man that You should repent; if You said, You will do it, and if You spoke it, you are going to make it GOOD!" (Num 23:19) Thank you for being a Word honoring God! Abba, you always keep your promises!

If God said it,
He will do it!

If God said it,
It will come to pass!

You can count on God,
All the time,
Anytime,
Everytime!

Psa 145Psalm 145[a]
A psalm of praise. Of David.
1 I will exalt you, my God the King;
I will praise your name for ever and ever.
2 Every day I will praise you
and extol your name for ever and ever.

3 Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise;
his greatness no one can fathom.
4 One generation commends your works to another;
they tell of your mighty acts.
5 They speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty—
and I will meditate on your wonderful works.
6 They tell of the power of your awesome works—
and I will proclaim your great deeds.
7 They celebrate your abundant goodness
and joyfully sing of your righteousness.

8 The LORD is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger and rich in love.

9 The LORD is good to all;
he has compassion on all he has made.
10 All your works praise you, LORD;
your faithful people extol you.
11 They tell of the glory of your kingdom
and speak of your might,
12 so that all people may know of your mighty acts
and the glorious splendor of your kingdom.
13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
and your dominion endures through all generations.

The LORD is trustworthy in all he promises
and faithful in all he does.[c]
14 The LORD upholds all who fall
and lifts up all who are bowed down.
15 The eyes of all look to you,
and you give them their food at the proper time.
16 You open your hand
and satisfy the desires of every living thing.

17 The LORD is righteous in all his ways
and faithful in all he does.
18 The LORD is near to all who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth.
19 He fulfills the desires of those who fear him;
he hears their cry and saves them.
20 The LORD watches over all who love him,
but all the wicked he will destroy.

21 My mouth will speak in praise of the LORD.
Let every creature praise his holy name
for ever and ever.
