Topic: SACRED SONGS OF PRAISE
Text: Read: 2 Samuel 22:47
Daily Bible Study: Deut. 21-22; Mk. 16

“…Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be my God, the Rock, my Saviour!” (2 Sam. 22:47).

King David faced extreme ups and downs in life throughout his days on earth. He experienced times of closeness with God that led to victories, and also times that he stumbled along by going his own way against God’s commandments. Yet a constant thing in his life was his sacred songs of praise to God. Even in his state of brokenness, he had praise in his heart for God. In the Scriptures God promised blessings and success for those who obeyed His law. Yet alongside these promises is the reality that “many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him from them all” (Ps. 34:19).

In the book of 2 Samuel 22, King David reflects on the power and goodness of the Almighty God. He reflects on the numerous times he sought refuge and shelter in the loving arms of his heavenly Father. He faced countless life-threatening and life-altering storms in his life, yet God was always there for him and he never failed to praise God.

When you face valleys in your life, never forget that God is infinitely mightier than your problems, and He is watching over you. No matter how desperate your circumstances may seem, God is sheltering you and protecting you. He is upholding you and empowering you. So always be filled with sacred songs of praise to God, for He is worthy of our praises and thanksgiving.

Prayer: Merciful God, thank You for Your faithfulness. Help me to always sing sacred songs of praises to You, no matter what circumstances I find myself in. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ – Amen.

WAKE UP NIGERIAN YOUTHS!'~~~ "Awolowo was 37 years, Akintola 36, Ahmadu Bello 36, Balewa 34, Okotie-Eboh 27 and Enahoro 27 And they led the struggle for Nigeria Independence after the death of Macaulay. Only Zik was 42 at the time! In 1966, the first military coup was led by K Nzeogwu who was 29 years and countered by M.Mohammed 28, T. Danjuma 28, I. Babangida 25, J. Garba 23, Sani Abacha 23, and M. Yar'adua 23, And brought into power Y. Gowon 32, Ojukwu 33, Obasanjo 29, And Buhari 24! Most of the military governors who governed the states under the successive military regimes were under 30 years. Also, the brief democratic dispensation which interjected the military interregnums also saw some Senators and members of the House of Representatives, in particular, populated by persons under 30! Under 30's were also not in short supply with a...
