God Wants Me to Persevere
In Praise
1 Samuel 2:1-11
Read the Bible through:
AM - 2 Chronicles 26-27 : PM - John 18
"No one is holy like the LORD, For there is none besides You, Nor is there any rock like our God (1 Sam. 2:2).
Hannah praised God for His holiness and uniqueness. She cast her praise in poetic form and expressed it through prayer to God.
More broadly, we can think of praise as what we feel, think, or say about God. Sometimes our praise may take the form of unexpressed feelings of awe or adoration. Usually, we think of praise as vocalized expressions made in prayers, songs, or spoken words – expressions that extol God’s attributes and actions.
Families often teach young to utter praise by praying, “God is great; God is good.” Many of the Psalms furnish us words by which to express praise to God. Praising Christians often read back to God the Psalms of praise. Congregations often join in singing hymns of praise to God. Individual believers stand in the midst of God’s wonderful creation and feel overwhelming praise for His handiwork.
Lord, You are worthy to receive honor, glory, and praise for Your greatness, goodness, and grace
