Praising God In Prayer
TALKING TO GOD
Praise God for making you and everything you have, including food, a home and people who love you.
DIVING IN
Think about the things you’re grateful for. Make a list of 10 of them. Tell someone why you’re grateful for each item on your list. Finally, praise God for all that He has given you.
GOING DEEPER
Through the use of short blessing prayers that relate to daily life, people learn to praise God and express thanksgiving. The moment you open your eyes in the morning, you might pray, “Thank You, God, for my eyes. Thank You for sight.” While getting dressed, you could pray, “Thank You, God, for meeting my needs – giving me clothes to wear, such as these,” and at the first sight of the sun, you may declare, “God, You are so great! Thank You for Your creation.” Psalm 145:1-2 is a great example of how to praise God: “I will extol you, my God and King, and bless your name forever and ever. Every day I will bless you and praise your name forever and ever.” Praise God today and every day!
TALKING TO EACH OTHER
- How did writing down a list of things you’re grateful for change your attitude?
