3 WAYS TO HONOR GOD DAILY
3 Ways to Honor God Daily
Jayasooriya Palitha
Psalm 145
Soul singer Lionel Ritchie was once deeply impacted by a speech in which his father had honored his mother, on their 37th wedding anniversary. In his speech, Ritchie Senior had lovingly honored his wife for sticking by him through the ups and downs of life. Said Lionel, ''What a great story because I pass through my house every day and I don't say thank you. I just take for granted that certain things be done''. That speech moved him to compose one of his best loved songs, 'Three Times a Lady'.
As we look at Psalm 145 today, the first few verses of this beautiful Psalm of praise by David show us 3 practical ways in which we can honor our Lord daily. Following these 3 steps will strengthen and enhance our walk with Jesus. They are:

In another Psalm, Psalm 107, the author earnestly encourages the people on 4 occasions to be thankful to God, by repeating the phrase, ''Let them thank the Lord for His steadfast love, for His wonderful works to humankind'' (Psalm 107: 8, 15, 21, and 31).
The Psalmist also encourages praise by reflecting on God's deliverance (Psalm 107:6), His guidance (Psalm 107:7), provision (Psalm 107:9), protection (Psalm 107:29-30) and blessings (Psalm 107:35-38).
As I was reflecting recently over these two psalms, the Lord reminded me of how He had brought powerful deliverance through fiery trials, guidance in difficult situations, provision in unexpected ways, protection from targeted attacks of the enemy and individual blessings to each of our ...
