Psalm 107:1-9

Message

In 2 Samuel 6:14, the Bible says that David danced with all his might. God loved David so much and was always with him because he was always praising Him Whenever demons tormented Saul and David played the harp, God's presence would fill the room, and the demons would run away (1 Samuel 16:23). Psalm 22:3 says that God inhabits the praises of Israel. When you praise God regularly, demons cannot stay around you because once light comes in, darkness must flee (John 1:5).

Beloved, you must learn to praise God daily. In the Scriptures, you'll find many reasons to praise Him. In Genesis 17:1, God calls Himself Jehovah Elshaddai, the God who is more than enough. In Genesis 18:9-14 and Jeremiah 32:27, He is revealed as the God of all flesh, with whom nothing is impossible. In Exodus 15:26, He introduced Himself as ". . . the Lord that healeth thee" because He is the Great Physician. In Psalm 24:7-10, He introduced Himself by two titles: The King of glory and the Lord of hosts. In Psalm 23:1, He presents Himself as Jehovah Rohi, the Good Shepherd who provides everything you need. In Genesis 16:13, He is Èl-Roi, the All-seeing, All-knowing, ever attentive God. He cares intimately about you and knows you by name (Exodus 33:17). In Jeremiah 32:17-19, He is El Gibhor, the mighty God who rescues. In Exodus 17:15, He is called Jehovah Nissi, your mighty banner of deliverance. In Isaiah 1:24, He is Jehovah Sabaoth, the Lord of hosts; He fights visible and invisible battles on your behalf and gives you victory over the enemy.

According to Ezekiel 48:35, He is Jehovah Shammah, the ever-present One. He is always there when you need Him, and He never slumbers or sleeps (Psalm 121:4). He is the Alpha and Omega of your life (Revelation 21:6); He always has the first and final say (Isaiah 44:6). He alone is God(Psalm 86:10); He is always good (Psalm 73:1), ever faithful(Lamentations 3:23), all-sufficient (Genesis 17:1), and never changing (Malachi 3:6). God is your comforter (John 14:16), deliverer (2 Samuel 22:2), helper (Psalm 54:4), teacher (John 14:26), strength, and song (Exodus 15:2). He is your very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). He supplies all your needs according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19) and does exceeding, abundantly above all you can ask or think(Ephesians 3:20). He saved you and will keep you until the end (Jude 1:24).

Beloved, you have breath in you; therefore, you have every reason to praise God.

King James Version

Psalm 107:1-9

O give thanks unto the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. [2] Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom he hath redeemed from the hand of the enemy; [3] And gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, from the north, and from the south. [4] They wandered in the wilderness in a solitary way; they found no city to dwell in. [5] Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them. [6] Then they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them out of their distresses. [7] And he led them forth by the right way, that they might go to a city of habitation. [8] Oh that men would praise the Lord for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men! [9] For he satisfieth the longing soul, and filleth the hungry soul with goodness.
RCCG Hymn

Praise my soul, the king of heaven

  1. Praise my soul, the king of heaven,
    To His feet thy tribute bring;
    Ransom'd, heal'd, restor'd, forgiven.
    Who like thee
    His praise should sing?
    Praise Him! Praise Him!
    Praise the everlasting king.
  2. Praise Him for His grace and favour
    To our fathers in distress;
    Praise Him, still the same for ever
    Slow to chide and swift to bless:
    Praise Him! Praise Him!
    Glorious in His faithfulness.
  3. Angels, help us to adore Him!
    Ye behold Him face to face:
    Sun and moon, bow down before Him:
    Dwellers all in time and space,
    Praise Him! Praise Him!
    Praise with us the God of grace.
