In Psalm 100:4 David writes, "Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise." Today's worship focus is on entering His courts with praise. This Hebrew word for praise refers to a spiritual song or a spontaneous song. It is a song that has never been previously written but comes from the overflow of your heart. As you spend time in worship today, go deeper with God by singing a new song. It's not about what it sounds like. It is a matter of the heart. What is in your heart about God today? What are you thankful for? What aspect of His nature has you amazed today? Now, sing a new song to the Lord!

Psalm 59:17 says, "To You, O my Strength, I will sing praises; For God is my defense, My God of mercy." As you worship today, recognize that your source of strength is God. In the midst of troubling circumstances, complaining is never the answer. Fear is never the answer. The answer is to worship. You strengthen yourself in the Lord as you choose to remember who He is and give Him praise.

Psalm 34:1 says, "I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise will continually be in my mouth." Recognize the Lord today in everything that you do. No matter where you are or how you feel, bless Hin during this time of worship. He is completely worthy of our praise.

Psalm 103:1 says, "Bless the Lord, oh my soul, and all that is within me bless His holy name." To bless in this verse means to declare. Today's worship prompting is about declaring the name of the Lord. For example, one of His names is Jehovah Jireh, meaning that He has looked ahead and has already provided. That's who He is, and you can declare the reality of His name and who is over whatever circumstances you may be facing today. He has already looked ahead and has already provided. Declare His name today!

As you worship the Lord today, just become aware of the fact that your Heavenly Father is also rejoicing over you. He sings over you. He quiets you with His love. As you spend your time focusing on God in worship, directing your love and affection toward Him, He is so good that He focuses on YOU and directs His love and affection toward you.

Psalm 100:4a says, "Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise." Today's worship prompting is about thanksgiving. Wherever you are right now just begin to tell God what you are thankful for (not just spiritual things, but natural things, little things, big things, all kinds of things!) Worship God as you become thankful for what He's done in your life.

Your worship is a weapon! When you are up against your greatest battle, the answer is worship. Whatever you are going through today, just begin to worship God. He fights your battles for you as you worship Him. Set your mind, your heart, and your focus on Him today.

In Psalm 22:3, David writes that God inhabits the praises of Israel, or the praises of His people. God is at home in your praise! As you worship today, offer yourself to the Lord and remember to make it all about Him.

In Psalm 34:3, David writes, "Oh magnify the Lord with me, let us exalt His name together." You magnify the Lord by exalting His name, recognizing who He is and giving Him praise. For today's worship prompting, spend a few moments calling to mind some of the awesome attributes of God's character and allow it to overflow into declarations of worship.

Psalm 103:1-2 - Remember something specific that God did for you. Remember that time He rescued you from danger. He pulled you out of harm's way. He saw you through that season when you were sure you were going under. He saved you. He died for you. There are so many things to be thankful for. Remember what God has done and allow thankfulness to arise out of you as you worship Him today.
