Praise To The Lord!

May the glory of the LORD continue forever!

The LORD takes pleasure in all he has made!

The earth trembles at his glance;

the mountains smoke at his touch.

I will sing to the LORD as long as I live.

I will praise my God to my last breath!

May all my thoughts be pleasing to him,

for I rejoice in the LORD.

Let all sinners vanish from the face of the earth;

let the wicked disappear forever.

Let all that I am praise the LORD. Praise the LORD!

Psalm 104:31-35

You’ll never lack for ways to express yourself to God in prayer when you use Scripture in your prayers. This prayer provides a portrait of the Almighty that will jump-start anyone’s prayer life. Immerse yourself in this beautiful prayer of praise to the Lord. Imagine the piercing power of his mere glance, which makes the entire earth tremble. The very mountains he created smoke at his touch.

What adversary are you facing? What mountain stands in your way? Nothing is too big for the Lord. Commit your adversaries, your worries, and your cares to him.

• Dear Lord, may all my thoughts be pleasing to you, for I rejoice in you . . .
