THE DAILY BLUEPRINT FOR 11-30-06
THIS WILL PLEASE HIM
PSALM 69:30-32
I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify Him with thanksgiving.
This shall also please the Lord better than an ox or bull that has horns and hoofs.
The humble shall see this, and be glad; and your hearts shall live that seek God!
God wants us to Praise Him - He created us and in Him we have our meaning -without God what kind of world would this be -there would be no hope at all - but we all know there is a God who has been revealed to us through the Word and through Jesus the Son - And since this is true - our goal in life should be to praise HIS mighty name! This pleases the Lord - He does not ask that we be perfect to seek His face- but that we be humble and faithful- He wants us to be mature in Him - He desires our praise - Imagine that the God of all creation wants us to Praise HIM - in Heaven I believe we will praise HIM forever- now I do not know what that will be like - but unlike now -there will be nothing in our way - no flesh - no distractions!
I find it also interesting that the Psalmist has said the humble will see this - note that they do not say everyone will see it - we must come before God with a humble heart of thanksgiving - I have to admit just the other morning when I was running late and many things happened to contribute to this - I had one of my times of prayer that is not praiseworthy - but honest- I just told God who I felt -(He already knew it) but I told Him and it was not pretty- but it was prayer time - I know we should always honor Him - and I feel I did - but I was frustrated and wish I had spent more time praising HIM and less time being demanding -He wants us to be humble- this is going to be a life-long struggle for me - but God is calling us to do just that - humble ourselves - HIS love is not pushy and neither should we HIS children be! Worship is to be our lifestyle - lets have a humble heart of thanksgiving while we praise the LORD - This will please HIM more then anything!
Praise GOD!
A side note: I love the new song by Chris Tomlin- its called WE WERE MADE TO WORSHIP - and its so true -GOD made us to worship HIM -this should be our purpose in all we do!
With CHRIST , we are to live lives of Worship!
