Centre verse:( Psalm 92:1,2)"It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most high: To shew forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night"TEXT: PSALM 92:1-15. A story was narrated of a commercial praise-singer, who sang a well known praise but covetous figure when it comes to a public ceremony. He fluently sought the historical feats of the figure's progeny,he remembered the extraordinary accomplishments over the years and celebrated his charismatic ability to solve difficult problems. Experiencing highly honoured, this well-known skinflint distributed in abundance the singer with a huge sum. As the singer continued, he took off his pair of costly shoes and traditional flowing top and handed it over to them as gifts. He was totally in love by the accolades showered on him that he could not oppose being generous, no matter it was only for that day. Christians who worship God open the websites of heaven. God is not a skinflint: He is always generous. Knowing the willingness of God to do more for us as we appreciate His goodness,David in our reference under consideration today declared that it is always good to give thanks unto the LORD. Neglecting to realize this reality, many people think of what they do not have. Therefore, they do not find it very important to praise the Lord. If we consider that we are still alive is a sufficient reason to worship God always. We have to realize that we are not better than those who have passed away. The psalms of David directs to people who do not appreciate God's life sustaining gifts such as the free air we breath,water, sun,moon,stars,the evergreen leaves,shrubs and trees of the forest as a fools. God is always ready to bless us.He needs righteousness that comes from repentance and faith in Christ's atoning blood of sacrifice that makes Christian flourish like a palm tree and grow like cedar in Lebanon. He also demands greatful heart that ptaise Him. REMEMBER THIS: Commendation is a sweet smelling savour to God. Further Bible verses: Psalm 147:1,89:1.
