1000 Names
“I am lost in wonder at all You do,” sings Phil Wickham in today’s addition to our practice of praise.
Praise to the Lord, the Almighty
Praise to the Lord, the king of creation, redemption, our past, present, and future. Praise to the Lord, today!
GRATITUDE!
How can we praise Him enough? One glorious day, all of creation will burst forth in worship and praise to our God, who is love. Will we ever stop singing?
The Messenger to Floor Eleven: Part 2
I was challenged to pray not just for what I hoped God would do.
Messenger to Floor Eleven — 1
The Father knew that I would need this truth for the hard years ahead.
Worthy of it All
Who is the One who worthy of all worship, honor, and praise? Yes, Christ Jesus, the mighty Lamb of God is the One worthy of it all. And what a joy to sound it out! Sound it forth, this day, while it is still called “today”! Use your voice to bring to God your worship!
The Jesus Way
Phil Wickham’s new song, The Jesus Way is (I think) one of his best. And that is saying a lot! The lyrics to this song challenge, encourage, and beckon us ever onward, inviting us to state with conviction that we choose the Jesus way! Have a listen!
Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus
Turning. Sometimes it takes an effort almost superhuman. Especially when anxiety and or depressive feelings pervade. Sometimes we are too anxious, too watchful–we don’t think that we can take our eyes off of this thing even for a minute. How can we give it over to Someone else?
Be Still
Trust Him to be the King over your life, Sovereign over what you are facing today.
My Jesus
Today’s Practice of Praise brings back an old favorite from yesteryear. This lovely worship ballad found its way into many churches in the 1990’s. Perhaps you are familiar with it already. If not, I hope you find it enriching in your moment’s with Him.
A Thousand Hallelujah’s
A Thousand Hallelujah’s? Are you kidding me? Today, I can’t generate even one! Heavy sighs just kept escaping from my weary, worn-out soul. Is there a way out of my grumpiness, and into His presence?
He is Risen Indeed
Today marks one of the highest and holiest days of the Christian Calendar. It is a day for jubilant rejoicing, as we celebrate our great King’s triumph over death, sin, and the grave.
Do you know this Savior? Have you met this Risen Lord?
Amazing Love
Charles Wesley wrote today’s much-loved hymn over 250 years ago. “And, can it be, that I should gain and interest in the Savior’s love?”
Wesley was overcome with the reality of God’s Amazing Love.
Worship His Majesty
The song that we are adding to our practice of praise today Jack Hayford’s most popular. In fact, for over 15 years, it was consistently among the top 10 songs among Christians. Perhaps you have enjoyed praising God with this gem.
Hosanna in the Highest
Now the crowds going ahead of Him, and those who followed, were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David; BLESSED IS THE ONE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD; Hosanna in the highest!”
We All Bow Down
King Jesus is Lord of the Cross, Lord of the Resurrection, and Lord of Life. Our King, All Powerful and Eternal, is worthy of our adoration!
10,000 Reasons
Indeed, with each new day, the sun comes up, and it’s a new day just dawning. There’s never been this particular sunrise, you know, that one that occurred today. There’s never been this new day, the one in front of you, right now. Yesterday is past, and is now consigned to the memory bin. But today! Brand spanking new–full of possibility, full of promise, full of hope. Like the words to this song suggest, may we bless Him all day with our worship, and may we still be singing, when the evening comes.
Wonderful, Merciful Savior
The authors worship the Triune God: Jesus the Son, the Spirit, and lastly, the Father. The chorus then states: “You are the One that we praise, You are the One we adore, demonstrating that though three Persons, our God is One.
Echo Holy
In John’s Revelation, he includes these words, words that bear continuous repeating, over and over, throughout every age, forever and ever.
God I Look to You
The song states that we will love God with everything we can, with everything we are. Both in the Old Testament Law, as well as the words of Jesus in the New Testament, we are instructed to direct our full self to loving God.
You’re Beautiful
This song is truly a gem. It does what Wickham intended–it helps bring God’s children right into the throne room of our beautiful God.
Run to the Father
Shipwrecked by the storms? It’s easy to wobble, and times we just tip over. But we are invited to run back to Him! He is waiting.
Build My Life
Our God is pure love, and that, we can take to the bank. As we proclaim it, we remind our own wavering souls of this higher truth, the one that can co-exist with the struggles of life.
