Hallelujah!
Praise the Lord! Lifting up the name of the Lord God of the Universe
is our duty and privilege. As saints of God (believers), we are to “be joyful
in glory”. Literally, be so moved and influenced by the glory, grace and
majesty of our God that we praise with exuberance and excitement. In church or
out in the mission field of life we should be known for praise.
Notice that our song is to be a new song. Some would say
that this means no evidence of anything of the old life or experiences before
Christ. Yet those life experiences, feelings and understanding weight our
praise. The truth is also old and unchanging, we must not ignore that in our
new song.
I believe our
praise is to be ever new and fresh, not
some vain repetition of a cold and distant relationship. Praise is about our
heart, our emotions, and an active relationship with our Savior! When our heart is right, we can praise with words and
songs of old and yet those words and songs will not always allow us to express
as fully or naturally as we would like great praise in our own language of
love. God has made us unique and brought us through some distinctive life
experiences. As we grow, our worship and praise should grow but never old or
stale. Every day may our praise be new.
