Day 154
Psalm 103:1
"Bless the Lord, 0 my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. "
The psalmist David considered God to be so great, that he wanted to bless him with all he had. We may have sung the song, "Bless the Lord, 0 my soul," and thought of verbal praise to God. However, we can take it a step further and consider our actions on a daily basis as opportunities to bless the Lord with our lives.
Colossians 3:24 says, "And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily. as to the Lord, and not to men." Our lives should bless the Lord, as we seek to honor Him in everything we do. The words of our mouths and the meditation of our hearts should bless Him. Our actions should bless Him, as we do those things that are pleasing in His sight.
We can take it a step further by commanding our bodies to function properly, as God designed them to. As we do our part to take care of our bodies, which are God's temples, our limbs, organs, tissues and cells - all that is within us, should bless the Lord, by functioning in perfection.
As we speak, act and live healthy and whole as unto the Lord, we can bless Him with our souls and all that is within us. Let us start thinking more like this today, and may the song, "Bless the Lord, 0 my soul," take on new meaning for us and become more meaningful to God as we sing it.
I will bless the Lord with my soul and all that is within me today. I will speak and act in a way that will bless Him. I will command my body to Junction in a manner that will bless Him. I will bless the Lord.
