Genesis 49:1-33; Psalms 28:1-29:11; Matthew 27:1-26

By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. Hebrews 13:15

What exaltation ascended to the Lord when Israel was delivered from Pharoah (Ex. 15:1)! What praise came from Mary at the prospect of a coming Son (Luke 1:46)! What a song was sung by Paul and Silas when bound in chains, they suffered for the Gospel (Acts 16:25)! No matter the circumstances are we a praising people, singing with grace in our hearts to the Lord (Col. 3:16)? —Jim Paul

Still praising Thee that should be my mission.
As fleeting years so quickly come and go
Still praising Thee be this my high ambition.
Then further cause for praising I shall know. —J. Danson Smith
