Who can utter the mighty acts of the Lord? who can shew forth all his praise? –Psalms 106:2
Who can truly praise the Lord? Those who know God through faith in Jesus Christ. “His mercy endures forever” (v.1). Only when we‘ve experienced the mercy and grace of God can we utter His mighty acts. We‘ve been saved by His grace. This was God’s greatest act—greater than bringing Israel out of Egypt and even greater than the creation of the universe.
Who else can praise the Lord? Those who obey Him (v.3). If we are walking with the Lord and obeying Him, then we can praise Him and speak of His wondrous acts.
Also, those who call upon the Lord can praise Him (v.4). People who pray are people who praise. People who pray for God’s will in their lives are those who rejoice in His work.
Finally, those who trust His promises can praise the Lord (v.5). God promised His people an inheritance in Canaan, and He gave it to them. We now have our inheritance in Jesus Christ....One day we will share in His glory. Let’s praise Him today.

Those who obey, trust and call upon the Lord know of the acts of God. They have claimed their inheritance in Jesus Christ. Are you among those who can praise the Lord? Have you claimed your inheritance?
