Part of learning to live with a chronic illness is learning to praise God.
As you care for yourselves or for a loved one with a chronic illness, often you grow tired and weary. As you tire, you should focus on our Heavenly Father.
The Lord God will strengthen and renew you as you praise him.
Today’s Bible Verse:
Exodus 15:2 (KJV), “The Lord is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him a habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him.”
What the Verse Means:
We get our strength from the Lord. We should praise God.
Why should we praise him? We praise him to the honor of God. We praise him to exalt his name. We celebrate his praise.
Praise is the Lord God’s only. The tribute isn’t to magnify man but to praise the Lord.
Personalized Prayer Using Today’s Scripture:
- I confess that the Lord is my strength and my song;
- The Lord is my salvation.
- TheLord is my God.
- I praise Him and will exalt the Lord God.
- Lord God, teach me to praise you and give God the glory.
