Yesterday I preached a sermon about Psalm 145. It is as though David emptied his pen to write about the greatness of God. So many of his Psalms tell of pain in life , while this one goes upward telling of the greatness of God. We need both kinds of focus.
In the end praise swallows up all our griefs and complaints.
I noted the following action verbs he tells us to use in communicating how big God is.
Commend vs 4
Tell vs 4
Speak vs 5
Meditate vs 5
Tell vs 6
Proclaim vs 6
Celebrate vs 7
Sing vs 7
Here are four truths about God to form the heart of our praise:
God's Greatness
God's Goodness
God's Glory
God's Grace
