Fr, 04/10/15, 6th Day of Easter, "Day of Praise," so say it with The Easter Guy, "Jesus is alive, and you are loved!"
Some of my favorite foods are really simple: grilled chicken, broccoli, cheerios, vanilla ice cream. You can get fancy with them, but most of the time they are best when left alone.
It's like today's Bible verses. You can get fancy with them, but most of the time they are best when left alone.
Therefore, I'll simply say this about today's Bible verses: Daniel reminds us that to praise God is simply to speak confidently of both who God is and also what belongs to God.
This Day of Praise devotional ministry started with the simple goal of encouraging people to praise God daily, as Daniel does in today's verses, because God has established praise as the act of faith that taps into God and His power.
So, using Daniel's praise as a model, praise God today. And remember, you are not only permitted to praise God more than once in a day, but I dare say that God encourages you to praise God many times throughout a day.
Here's today's verses. Say 'em, even shout 'em out loud many times today, as if you believe 'em, with deep conviction, to be true for you so that you yourself can tap into God and His power.
"Then Daniel praised the God of heaven and said:
'Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever;
wisdom and power are his.
He changes times and seasons;
he deposes kings and raises up others.
He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning.
He reveals deep and hidden things;
he knows what lies in darkness,
and light dwells with him.
I thank and praise you, God of my ancestors:
You have given me wisdom and power,
you have made known to me what we asked of you,
you have made known to us the dream of the king.'" -
