Oh that the heavens may open up for a moment that we may catch a glimpse of the angels and heaven's hosts singing praises to our Lord; an awesome example of what praise should look like!
I’ve been to award ceremonies where people are honored for achievements or deeds. What is said about them is inspiring, building them up to be a person of greatness, of great worth, and of great value; someone worthy of being praised and emulated. Usually what follows is an outpour of hands and voices coming together in unison giving cheers, supporting the words spoken and honor is established. It’s inspiring just to be a part of these events!
As touching and exhilarating as honoring a person is, can you imagine when we are praising God face to face? When the One that poured out His perfect love in graceful sacrifice through His Son our Lord Christ Jesus; when the One that created both you and I; when the One that is faithful beyond measure… is before us in all His glory… it is then that we will praise Him with everything we have and never grow tired of doing so.
“Praise the Lord! For it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant, and praise is beautiful.” – Psalm 147:1
