Today's message is titled: "Where, Why, And How We Praise The Lord". Psalm 146 is a Psalm that begins and ends with: "Praise the LORD" The scope of God’s creative action is as large as the heavens, the earth, and the sea, as well as everything that inhabits them.

So many of us think we have God in our pocket today, meaning that we can do whatever we want, but you as well as I know this is not true! … When we ask for God’s direction and we know he is answering our prayer… Well then, don't you agree that it's very important to obey and follow his instructions.

Today's message asks a question. It's the question the crowd asked Jesus when they found Him again after He had fed them. What should we do? – that was the question they asked Jesus. They wanted to do exciting things! But, were their hearts in the right place? Jesus replied quite clearly what God wants from them and that is the key, that goes for us too. Jesus said: "Believe in the one he has sent.” And that is it! That's all God requires of us to be with Him in eternal life.
