7 Days of Praise: Praying Through Psalm 150 Àpẹrẹ
Day 6 – Praise Chorus from All Creation
Yes, may we praise the Lord with songs and instruments, dance and other creative expressions, as well as lives yielded to God! As we pray through Psalm 150, we see a symphony of praise that’s come together to exalt God’s holy name, including the trumpet, lute, and harp (150:3); tambourine, strings, and pipe (150:4); and loud clashing cymbals (150:5)! Yes, as the psalmist proclaims, “Let everything that has breath praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!” (150:6).
Yes, yes, yes, Father God, we praise You for who You are, what You have done and are doing, and what You’ve said throughout the Scriptures that You will yet do! Your every promise is YES! You can be trusted! We praise Your great name! Indeed, may all creation join the praise chorus!

As we praise God today, let's keep in mind the heavenly worship service we'll one day take part in: “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain . . . !” (see Revelation 5:11-12). Here's how we praise, says Charles Spurgeon: “We simply say what [God] is! ‘You are this and You are that.’ There is no other praise.” Why not invite friends and family to “join the chorus” with you?
