This people have I formed for myself;
they shall shew forth my
praise.
Isaiah 43:21 KJV -
We as His people need to show forth his praise, this our way of showing Yahweh our love for Him. It is a way to express gratitude for all He does for us. We are to praise Yah. When we declare our praise for Elohim, we are
giving Him glory, and fulfilling one of the purposes we were created for.
Here is an article I ran across in my search on this topic and I would like to share it with you.
GIVING GOD THE GLORY NO MATTER WHAT YOU ARE FACING CBN.com
Witnessing a magnificent fireworks display, hearing a stunning symphony, or seeing a glorious sunset can evoke a response of praise. But often, it's easier to praise a sunset than the Creator of the sunset. In that same way, the difficulties of life often cloud our vision and keep us from praising God. What can we do to restore a heart-attitude of praise?
THE NATURE OF PRAISE
Praise, according to the Scriptures, is an act of our will that flows out of an awe and reverence for our Creator. Praise gives glory to God and opens us up to a deeper union with Him. It turns our attention off of our problems and on the nature and character of God Himself.
As we focus our minds on God and proclaim His goodness, we reflect His glory back to Him. The results can fill you with peace and contentment ( Isaiah 26:3) and transform your outlook on life.
REASONS TO PRAISE
Very simply, we praise God because He is worthy of our praise ( 1 Chron. 16:25; Rev. 5:11-14). He is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the King of kings and Lord of lords. He is our Creator, Provider, Healer, Redeemer, Judge, Defender and much more.
As the psalmist said, "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord" ( Psalm 150:6).
As we praise God, we will discover incredible benefits for our lives. That's because human beings were created by God to praise Him ( Isa. 43:7, Matt. 21:16). Due to man's original sin, however, this relationship was disrupted. Praising God helps restore us to that right relationship, for God actually dwells in the praises of His people ( Psalm 22:3). As we draw near to the Father in praise, He draws near to us ( James 4:8).
Praise is also our ultimate destiny. When the Lord Jesus Christ returns again to earth, all creation -- including prideful mankind -- will recognize His glory and praise Him ( Phil. 2:9-11).
Let's practice to praise Yahweh by making it a part of each day. Now the flesh will rise up against this act but we should push through and this can be done by putting on some wonderful music that helps us in praising Yahweh. PRAISE YAHWEH !!!
