Praise the Lord! I will praise the Lord with my whole heart, in the assembly of the upright and in the congregation

Psalm 111.1

       This Psalm speaks about some themes, and the main one is the importance of praising the Lord. This must be done with purity, purpose, and honesty, praising Him for everything He has done and does for us, in the assembly of the righteous, where authorized and previously summoned people gather to make decisions on certain matters, accepting, rejecting, or changing laws, customs, and human precepts.


  The devil’s desire is for us to change the teachings established by God, but we cannot do that. They must be accepted and followed. We must submit to Him who is just and righteous. Without Him, we are liars (Romans 3:4). The Word declares that the divine precepts are completely holy, therefore they must be obeyed: I will never forget Your precepts, for by them You have given me life (Psalm 119:93).

 

        If we do not keep the Lord's statutes, we will never be able to praise Him with all our hearts. After all, each one has the power to give life to those who practice them. Therefore, seek to understand, even, the small commandments of the Most High. Their role in us is highly appreciated. Sin destroys our moral reserves, but by obeying God's commands, we are revitalized by them!

 

     Praise the Lord without any doubt, fear, or misinformation within you. In exalting the promises and works of the Heavenly Father, do so with all your might: The proud have forged a lie against me, but I will keep Your precepts with my whole heart. (Psalm 119:69). No matter the evil they have done to you, follow the guidance of the Most High and be set free!

 

      When you exalt the Creator among the righteous – those who have been forgiven of their sins – many will see your good example and do the same. The work done by God in your life, when shared with purity of soul and firmness of spirit, will make a difference in the lives of those who have seen and heard your testimony of gratitude to the Lord. Nothing better than letting the Holy Spirit use you to help those in need.

 

       The act of exalting God is capable of cleansing people from the contamination to which they have been exposed in the world. Those who have managed to recognize the Most High as the Author of what happened to them will help others rethink their previous decisions.

In this way, they will come to respect the Almighty as He deserves. We place ourselves under the divine mantle whenever we obey the Scriptures.

 

       The world needs the light of the Lord. By praising His Name sincerely, we lead the lost to know God and straighten their paths straight. With this, society is benefited. Why live away from the love of the Father, if He rewards those who change their way of living with the prize of seeing more souls being reached?

 

In Christ, with love,
