“Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; sing praise to his name, for that is pleasant.” Psalm 135:3 (NIV)
Today's verse is from a Psalm that expresses praise to our God. So many psalms are used to sing praises to Him we often think of them as loving songs. We are reminded here of how singing praises to God is a way to bring glory to Him and receive a blessing for ourselves. Our verse says that it is a pleasant experience. The things which are pleasant are the things that please us and can help us feel good and that's what happens when we sing praises to God. If we are troubled and feeling depressed, singing praises to our God will lift that and bring a pleasant feeing. Because God is worthy of our praise is why singing praises is such a pleasing experience. It's as our verse says, “The Lord is good.” Yes, and He's worthy because He is God. He is so good and so loving toward us that praising Him should be natural. So whether we sing with our voice or sing with our heart lets be about praising the Lord today.
