Here I am again this week. We talked about praising the Lord in the message this week. And I cannot stress enough the need for this. Too often in my prayers (yes, even in my own prayers), I focus a majority of the time on requests- lists of things I need from God. But God needs (and rightly deserves) our praise. Praise shows our gratitude and appreciation of all the things God has done and given us. Praise should be the first and foremost in our prayers and time with God. The list of what God has done for us is always greater than the list of requests we ask for in our prayers. Let me say that again. The list of what He has done for us is always greater than the list of requests we ask for in our prayers. So our praise should take more time then the time asking for things we want from God. How often has that happened in your daily prayer time? I would encourage you this week to spend more time praising God than asking from God.
