Be exalted O God
Psalms 57:8-11 (NIV) 8 Awake, my soul!
Awake, harp and lyre!
I will awaken the dawn.
9 I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;
I will sing of you among the peoples.
10 For great is your love, reaching to the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
11 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth.
Oh, could anyone praise God better than David? I can identify with David beginning the day with praise in his heart. As the darkness gives way to a new day, I hear the birds singing their morning song, and I praise God for yet another day. I am in awe of the way God loves—unconditionally. I am amazed by the depth and breadth of His love—worldwide. And for me, the only possible response is to join with David in exalting the one, true and living God.
Whether I am in need, or I am eating from the horn of plenty, I will praise God. Why praise God when times are hard? How could I praise Him for only the good times when Jesus is my constant companion in good times and bad.
May we awaken the dawn with praise on our lips and thankfulness in our heart.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
