ATTITUDE FOR DIVINE BLISS (PART 2)

MAR. 16TH

TEXT: Psalm 105:1-5
1. O GIVE thanks unto the Lord, call upon His name, make known His doings among the peoples!
2. Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; meditate on and talk of all His marvelous deeds and devoutly praise them.
3. Glory in His holy name; let the hearts of those rejoice who seek and require the Lord [as their indispensable necessity].
4. Seek, inquire of and for the Lord, and crave Him and His strength (His might and inflexibility to temptation); seek and require His face and His presence [continually] evermore.
5. [Earnestly] remember the marvelous deeds that He has done, His miracles and wonders, the judgments and sentences which He pronounced [upon His enemies, as in Egypt].

When the blessing and glory of God is upon a life, it results in heavenly bliss upon that soul. There is more to the glory and goodness of God than we can ever imagine. The Psalmist in Psalm 105 was obviously overwhelmed with the goodness of God when he wrote these words,
“Sing to Him, sing praises to Him: meditate and talk of all His marvelous deeds and devotedly praise them”.
Only a heart that has encountered the glory of God can pen down such beautiful words. It is obvious that the psalmist understood clearly the wonders of God’s hand, and the connection of praise with the miraculous.

The amazing thing is that even the man that has not encountered such glory, when he begins to praise God like the Psalmist, at some point, God will manifest His presence to this fellow.
Don’t let anybody stop you from encountering the glorious wonders of God by dissuading from singing praises to Him. Talk about His marvelous works and along the way you will begin to see them manifest in your life. I can relate with this. You know, before I saw any manifestations of God’s power and glory, I believed in it and talked about it. Then like a dream it began to happen. If you will talk about it and sing about it, one day you will testify about it

Sing and talk about it again and again, and as you do, great and glorious things are bound to follow. Don’t let circumstances and situations stop you, rather confront those circumstances and situations in faith as you sing, and you will see God turn everything around in your favour.
God has something glorious for you on the other side of your praise. Don’t give up.
