The Offering of Praise: Recognising God’s Goodness

The Offering of Praise: Recognising God's Goodness - Psalm 96:7-8

O nations of the world, recognize the Lord; recognize that the Lord is glorious and strong. Give to the Lord the glory he deserves! Bring your offering and come into his courts.

Psalm 96:7-8 NLT

Beloved, can I invite you to take a moment and recognize the goodness of God in your life. Then, bring your offering of praise to Him. Perhaps you’re thinking of very many things that are not yet working the way they should. Yeah, the issue is there, in fact there may be lots of them but if you are to think and be sincere, can you recognize at least one reason why the Lord deserves your praise and worship?

Would you say the Lord has been good to you? Can you see Him glorious and strong in your life? He preserved your life till this very moment. Isn’t that wonderful enough that you are among the living?

Greatness, power, glory, victory, and honor belong to you, because everything in heaven and on earth belongs to you! The kingdom belongs to you, LORD! You are the head, the Ruler over everything. Riches and honor come from you. You rule everything. You have the power and strength in your hand! And in your hand is the power to make anyone great and powerful! Now, our God, we thank you, and we praise your glorious name!

1 Chronicles 29:11-13 ERV

The Lord, majestic and mighty, deserves our utmost reverence. Let us humbly present our offerings and enter His presence. Let us come before Him, offering our heartfelt worship and gratitude. As we enter His courts, let our hearts overflow with reverence and awe. May our offerings be a testament to His glory and a symbol of our devotion. The Lord’s splendour is unmatched, and His strength is unrivalled. It is our duty to acknowledge His greatness and give Him the honour He deserves. Our offering, whether tangible or intangible, should reflect our deep appreciation for His majesty.

Ultimately, as we enter into His presence, let us bring our best offering which is our worship. The Lord delights in our worship and is pleased when we recognise His glory. Let us not hold back, but give Him the honour He deserves. Let us respond with reverence, gratitude, and heartfelt worship, entering His courts with offerings that reflect our deep appreciation for His splendour. We should acknowledge and honour the greatness of the Lord.
