“Great is the Lord, and highly to be praised, and His greatness is
unsearchable.  One generation shall
praise Your works to another, and shall declare Your mighty acts.”  (Psalm 145:3-4)

The generations come and go, but
the Lord is forever.  He sees the passing
generations and knows all who walk before Him. 
He who knows you has called you to come to Him.  He is your God and He wants you to be with
Him now and forever.  Come into the
presence of the One who made all things and walk humbly before your Maker.  He is God and there is no other.

Lord, amidst all of the thoughts that go through my mind, guide me to
see that only in You is there meaning. 
You created all things and You know all things.  Apart from Your revelation,  there is only speculation.  The speculations of man have come to
nothing.  Guide me, O Lord, in the way of
truth that I may walk humbly with You and learn from You the purpose for which
I have been made.

Lord Jesus, Guide me now and
always in the way of salvation which You have established.  Help me to see that in You alone is hope and
an eternal future.  Lead me this day to
do those things which are pleasing in the Father’s sight.  Help me to be active in all that You are
teaching me and guided by Your Spirit. 
May I be Your follower this day, serving the Father in thought, word,
and deed.  Amen.

“I will extol You, my God, O King, and I will bless Your name forever
and ever.  Every day I will bless You,
and I will praise Your name forever and ever.” 
(Psalm 145:1-2)

The Lord has created us to be people
of praise.  We will praise that which is
important to us.  We will extol those
things we consider important.  We were
created to serve and to praise.  Everyone
does this.  It is a matter of what you
will serve and praise.  Come into the
presence of the Lord who is forever and worship Him alone.  He is the One who is worthy of all honor and
praise.

Come, Holy Spirit, and teach me to praise you always.  Teach me to find the joy You give and live a
life of praise.  You have wonderfully
knit me together and I have purpose, but only in the truth will I find
everlasting purpose.  Guide me, O Lord,
in the way of righteousness that I would forever walk in the way of truth.  Lead me to live a life of praise now and
forever.

Lord Jesus, You have taught us
that we can do nothing apart from You. 
You have shown that in Your salvation is the way of life.  Guide me into a life of service and
praise.  Lead me into the way of
everlasting life.  Teach me the things I
need to know that I may now and always abide in the way You have
established.  Help me to overcome all
obstacles that I may learn from You how to live the true life You have
created.  Amen.
