Lamentations 3:22-23 says,"Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.”
We should be in a posture of praise and worship because we know that God grants us new mercies each and every day. Every new morning we awake, we know His mercies are fresh and new, giving us another opportunity to get things right. His faithfulness far exceeds our own and that, should be all the reason we need to remain in a posture of praise and worship.
So, as the writer of Lamentations tells us, let us examine ourselves and turn back to the Lord, for His faithfulness endures forever. When we can’t seem to perceive God amidst our path and the clouds of anxiety and fear closes in on us, the way forward is to remind ourselves of what we know to be true and dependable. The unchanging grace of God we see.
To worship God is to tell Him that we believe Him for who He says He is. I believe in the sun even when it is not shining. I believe in God, even when He is silent. Yes, every act of worship is a choice, a decision to believe and respond to God for who He says He is; no matter how pressing our circumstances. And the greater the pain we’re experiencing the greater a choice it may be. Sometimes we will walk blindly, unable to understand a certain situation. Our only comfort being the knowledge that God Himself is not walking blindly, but instead, He is kindly and firmly in control.
To praise God through all of the storms is to fully praise and worship Him. The Lord's faithful love should be all we need to keep us in a posture of praise and worship. His faithful love sustains us, His faithful love keeps us even when our love is less than faithful. God loves us in the midst of our challenges as well as on the peaks of our joys. Great is His faithfulness!
