1 I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. 2 My soul shall make its boast in the Lord; The humble shall hear of it and be glad. 3 Oh, magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.” (Psalm 34:1–3, NKJV)
“Count your many blessings, name them one by one…and it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.” This refrain reminds us that we constantly live by the good blessings of God. Humble faith acknowledges the Lord as the source of every good gift (Jas. 1:17). Even the trials of life refine us and bless us; these too are used by our Father to discipline our faith so that we may bear peaceable, righteous fruit (Heb. 12:5-11). Today is the day to praise the Lord and exalt His holy name. Boast in the Lord and not in yourself for all He does for you. His good providence has given you this day’s blessings and opportunities. Praise and magnify His name!
