Think about it
FOR HIS MERCY ENDURES FOREVER
A follower is a worshipper. We don’t worship for only what we get, we worship him for who he is. The difference between Praise and Worship is that Praise is for what he has done. Worship is regardless of what he has done. Worship is for who he is. My little experience about God is that he is faithful, reliable and dependable. That is how I like to see him. I try not to over analyse if I can because he is the most high, the wisest, the most powerful, no one can advise him, he is wisdom embodied. He is also compassionate and a responsible father.
We have been talking about discipleship. A true follower is also a worshipper. That means we learn to worship at all times, in all circumstances because we know who our father is. Our prayers this year ought to have a significant content of worship, because regardless of the plans of satan, IT IS OUR YEAR OF NEXT LEVEL.
Why don’t we take some time to read Psalm 136 to him and worship him today:
Psalm 136 – KJV

11 And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for ever:
12 With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy endureth for ever.
13 To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever:
14 And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy endureth for ever:
15 But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for ever.

23 Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy endureth for ever:
24 And hath redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endureth for ever.
25 Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever.
26 O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.
