Introduction
This devotion calls us to daily worship and highlights the powerful Doxology. Don’t let praise disappear—praise God daily! Forgotten the praise—this is what happens when we drift from heartfelt worship. Although many praise politicians or sports teams daily, too few lift high the name of God. This devotion encourages us to remember the Doxology and give God the glory.
Lift High the Name of God
“Every day I will bless you and praise your name forever and ever.” (Psalm 145:2)
Praise is not a Sunday-only activity. According to Charles Spurgeon, “Praise is the rehearsal of our eternal song.” That means every time we praise God, we are preparing for heaven. Yet we often forget this practice.
We shout loudly for our favorite teams. Flags fly, bumper stickers shout, and flower beds display yard signs. We openly support people and causes we care about. Why then do we hesitate to boldly praise our Savior?
Jesus died for us. He rose again. He reigns forever. Still, many Christians have forgotten the praise that belongs to Him. Sadly, the Doxology, a simple and powerful song written in 1674, gathers dust in hymnals while we chase modern songs that often lack theological depth.
The words are timeless:
Praise God from whom all blessings flow:
Praise Him all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen.
Is it too old-fashioned? No. It’s too powerful to forget. Whenever I sing it, I lift my hand to the Father in reverent awe. There’s nothing stale about pure praise. When we focus on God and not ourselves, our hearts ignite.
We must return to worship that honors Him above all. Moreover, as Proverbs 23:7 reminds us, “As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he.” If your heart is full of praise, your life will reflect that truth. Begin your day in worship, lifting high the name of Jesus Christ. Don’t let the world silence your song.
