Praise the Lord

The Psalms are all about praise and worship to the Lord Almighty. Psalms 150 says,

"1 Praise the LORD.
Praise God in his sanctuary;
praise him in his mighty heavens.

2 Praise him for his acts of power;
praise him for his surpassing greatness.

3 Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,
praise him with the harp and lyre,

4 praise him with tambourine and dancing,
praise him with the strings and flute,

5 praise him with the clash of cymbals,
praise him with resounding cymbals.

6 Let everything that has breath praise the LORD.
Praise the LORD."

I did this as a team devo in Macedonia. Nick asked us to find a Psalm and share what God spoke to us about it. So I did and in Macedonia it was God was telling me/us (the team) that in all things prasie God because it was all for His glory not ours and for us to keep our team focus on Him but, when i got back I was doing my personal devo and I randomly flipped to Psalm 150 again, so, I read it and this time God spoke to me in a totally ddifferent way. The first time it was all about praising Him and keeping the focus on Him but, the second time I stopped at verse 2, "Praise him for his acts of power; praise him for his surpassing greatness." This time God was telling me the reason why we need/should always praise Him and that it is because of His awesome acts of power and His surpassing greatness. I love how He used the same exact scripture but it spoke to me in to ways. We need and should praise the Lord Almighty for He is glorious and everything we ddo is for His glory not ours. We should also realize how awesome His acts and how great He truly is and we shold also praise him for that. Word.
