We, as the people of God, who are called by His name, have the privilege, and yes, the responsibility to exalt God’s name in every opportunity.

Our desperate need for God is like our need for water – without water we’ll eventually die after a few short days. Friends, God wants you to experience life to the fullest here on earth. God doesn’t want you to spend another day parched, so the psalmist reminds us to be wise and thank God!

It may not be for the image of an ox, but how often have you found yourself exchanging the glory of God for an idol in your life? But, friends, don’t worry, I have some good news for you. In the midst of us following our fickle hearts, God is faithful toward us.

How do you remember God’s faithfulness?

What the writer of Psalm 104 is saying to us today is this: The blessing is ready! The blessing God has prepared for you is ready! God doesn't have to get the blessing ready for you… He's got to get you ready for the blessing!

Friends, some days it is easy to be like David, sing songs of praise and worship to God. Other days may be a struggle. Today, take a few minutes to read through Psalm 103. And then I have an action step for you: Put a rubber band around your wrist. Every time you start to worry or complain, switch it to the other wrist. (You might want to ask your family to help because sometimes we aren’t very self-aware. Just sayin’!)

While we may not understand why we have to suffer and not get what we want, we can be assured that regardless of His answer to our prayers, our God is a good God who has a good plan for us.

When we begin to comprehend WHO it is we worship, our Maker and Creator of all, that knowledge will alter our posture of worship. Friends, a true worship experience has an expectation of each of us to enter the space with a sense of joyfulness and submission to God – meaning: surrender the world so you can praise with your whole heart.

If not careful, overthinking can take over your life, increasing your anxiety and leaving you in a state of “stuck.” That alone tells us that overthinking is not from God. So how do we break free? The Bible tells us….
