WORTHY OF ALL OUR PRAISES

Isaiah 12:3-5 NLT 
With joy you will drink deeply from the fountain of salvation! 
In that wonderful day you will sing: 
Thank the Lord! Praise his name! Tell the nations what he has done. 
Let them know how mighty he is! 
Sing to the Lord, for he has done wonderful things.
Make known his praise around the world.


Drink deeply, sing, thank, praise, tell, make known.
There’s lots of action in these few verses and we’re being told to do them all! When we remember all our God has done for us I don’t think we should have any bother obeying the instructions do you?😊

Our hearts can overflow in gratitude and thankfulness to the Lord for He really has done wonderful things for each one of us. Psalm 103 says He has forgiven all our sins, healed all our diseases, crowned us with His loving kindness and tender mercies, is renewing our youth like the eagles and so much more.

2 Peter 1:4 says He has given us His divine nature and 1 John 4:13 says He has given us His Holy Spirit with His power to live in us. We can praise His name for His mercy that came to us fresh this morning (Lamentations 3:23), and thank Him for His grace and favour He poured out on us for this new day and the rest of our lives. (Ephesians 1:6) 

We have a wonderful God and He wants each one of us to receive His joy as we drink deeply from His fountain, His well of blessings, of all that is included in our salvation because of Jesus. 

Maybe you haven’t felt able to drink from all of these wonderful blessings lately, but God is encouraging us all to do it today and I pray we can offer Him our thanks and praises all around the world, wherever we are reading this, and lift the name of Jesus high today. He is so worthy of it all. 

v.6 For great is the Holy One of Israel who lives among you.
