PSALM 145:1-7
I will extol you, my God and King, and bless your name forever and ever.2 Every day I will bless you and praise your name forever and ever.3 Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable.
4 One generation shall commend your works to another,
and shall declare your mighty acts.
5 On the glorious splendor of your majesty,
and on your wondrous works, I will meditate.
6 They shall speak of the might of your awesome deeds,
and I will declare your greatness.
7 They shall pour forth the fame of your abundant goodness
and shall sing aloud of your righteousness.

REFLECT
God’s splendor and majesty are so wonderful, we can’t help but praise Him and talk about it! It’s like discovering a beautiful new vacation spot — perhaps a pristine seashore — and hopping on socials to drop all your photos for others to wonder. But God’s splendor is something greater. This Psalm shows us how God’s name lasts forever and is worthy of being passed down to the next generation.

PRAY
"And don’t let us yield to temptation, but rescue us from the evil one."
Lord, it’s so easy to remain quiet when I’m feeling overwhelmed or like my voice doesn’t matter. But my life right now does matter. Soften my heart and humble me to serve the next generation more. I love you! Amen.
