“I will praise thee, O Lord, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy

marvelous works. I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy

name. O thou most High. When mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall

and perish at thy presence” (Psalm 9:12-13).

In our church, we are not strangers to praising God fervently. We get caught

up into the atmosphere of worship and praise. It is about the times when

worship and praise becomes laborious and a challenge that I would like to

speak.

We have all been through times when we felt that we were trying to hold up

100 lb weights when we lifted our hands. It was work to get our hands to move.

In serving God we experience mountaintops and the deep valley below. David

also had that experience, but he never stopped worshiping and praising God

through it all. What an honor to have been chosen to write some of the books of

the inspired Word of God.

I wonder if the Psalms would have been as eloquently written if David hadn’t

endured all the trouble and enemies around him. It doesn’t make sense to leave

God out of our plans. He is the Almighty! He promises to help us in our

troubles; He always makes a way; He is our comforter. He gave us a new song

of praise. He knows our heart and our desires. Truly the Lord doesn’t forget our

cry when we come into his presence humbly. It’s his desire that we have the

good things in life.

Sometimes it seems that every weapon known to man has been formed

against us and there is trouble on every side. Our health begins to fail us, our

soul is thirsty for the living water to pour over us again, and we are fighting an

unknown and uncertain future; but, the Bible promises that when the enemy

comes in like a flood that he will lift up a standard against him. He becomes a

shield against the wicked one.

We are to keep worshiping and praising God—in the good times and in the

not so good. When we are happy, and when we are sad; when there is joy

unspeakable, and when the joy has departed; in an abundance of rain and

refreshing, and when we find ourselves somewhere in the desert. I will bless the

Lord at all times his praise shall continually be in my mouth. David had a right

to be bitter and distressed for most of his life, but he chose to use the most

powerful weapon of all to overcome his despair and gain true victory over his

enemies: PRAISE and WORSHIP with a whole heart. –gm
