A Living Praise.
Sunday, February 26, 2023Key Verse
“I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.” Psalm 139:14
Text — Psalm 139:13-17
Message
Did you know that of all the things that God created, man was made last, and special? God spoke and all the other things came into existence. But He used His hands to carefully make man’s body. After this, He transferred His own life into man by breathing into his nose. This made man a living soul. No wonder the Psalmist said in our key verse that “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works; and that my soul knoweth right well.” God made you in His own image for a heart-to-heart fellowship with Him all the days of your life. Angels don’t have this privilege. Before He made man, Jesus Christ His Son and the Holy Spirit only are those He could have such fellowship with.
How close are you to God now? Have you allowed sin and the cares of this world to take you away from Him?
Come back to Him today. Also, He made you to show forth His praise as you live the life of holiness, for God Himself is holy. Make sure then that your life is daily, and ever a living praise to God through your holy life.
