MESSAGE:
God is good to all His creatures; He does great and mighty things for us. He provides for us, protects us and always defends us. In all His mighty works in our lives, the only thing God wants from us is to praise and serve Him faithfully all the days of our lives. No amount of money or material gifts can compensate God for all His wondrous acts in our lives.
King David recognized the mighty acts and the excellent greatness of God and offered to praise Him continually. If not for the mercies of God, David would have been swallowed up by the mighty enemies that surrounded him.
As believers, God is fighting for us too. He is always available to stop all satanic weapons fashioned against us. God also provides for us and keeps us in difficult times like in a pandemic (Covid-19). Look at your life, you will always find reasons to appreciate God.
Praising God is not only our duty, it should be a compulsory daily activity that we must engage in. God deserves our appreciation, please give Him the praise that is due to Him. Praise the Lord!
Prayer: Lord, help me to always appreciate Your wondrous works in my life and live to please You.

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
