For the past few days, I’ve really felt led to PRAISE. God has been so good and faithful. He certainly deserves my praise.
I spent some time today researching a little about praise and ways we can praise God. I journaled as I went. This evening, I decided to kind of put it all together in poster form, so that I could share it with you.
First, I looked at all the Psalms that were related to thanksgiving/praise and read them back to the Lord. I checked them off as I went. Next, I thought of praise songs. Some just “happened” to play on the radio and they were so fitting (like Bless the Lord Oh My Soul that played as I was reading Psalm 103 which has those same words!). Others just came to mind and I found them on Youtube and jotted down the titles (like Indescribable and Not to Us by Chris Tomlin). I also think spending time calling God by various names He’s referred to in the Bible is a great way to praise. Make a list of things to thank God for and spend some time thanking Him! Of course, dancing, singing, playing an instrument, and clapping your hands are great ways to praise, so I typed those ideas in on the poster.
If you are looking for creative ways to praise, hope this organizer will help.
I heard someone on the radio yesterday say, “The more you praise, the more reasons the Lord gives you to praise.”
Spend some time in His presence, praising Him!
Feel free to pass along this free poster.

Love the song Bless the Lord Oh My Soul! Thanks for all the options and reminders that praise comes in many forms!
