Psalms‬ ‭148:5‬ ‭NLT‬‬ Let every created thing give praise to the Lord, for He issued His command, and they came into being.

Although we’re instructed to praise God, a lot of us have never been taught to praise God. We usually end up imitating what we see others do. We’ll raise our hands, say hallelujah and glory to God. That’s fine, but it’s limited.

If we look at Psalm 149 and 150, it provides some instructions on how to praise God.

Praise God by Singing – ‭‭‭‭‭‭Psalm‬ ‭149:1‬ Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song. Sing his praises in the assembly of the faithful.
Even if we don’t know how to sing well, start singing to God on how wonderful He is. Create a new song. He loves it.

Praise God by Dancing – ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭149:3‬ Praise his name with dancing, accompanied by tambourine and harp.
Don’t just sit still, start dancing with your praise. Your flesh WILL think it’s embarrassing, but if He’s been that good, you would move beyond embarrassment and give into praise.

Praise God in Speech – ‭‭Psalm 149:6‬ Let the praises of God be in their mouths, and a sharp sword in their hands.
Don’t let praise be limited to church. As we go throughout the day, open your mouth and praise God.

Praise God with Instruments – ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭150:3‬ ‭Praise him with a blast of the ram’s horn; praise him with the lyre and harp!
Some of us have a talent to play an instrument. Use that instrument to praise God.

Praise God for What He’s Done – ‭‭Psalm‬ ‭150:2‬ ‭Praise him for his mighty works; praise his unequaled greatness!
Here’s where we go beyond just saying hallelujah and glory to God. Praise Him for waking you up. Praise Him for that promotion last year. Praise God for keeping you safe last night. Praise Him because of His faithfulness. Praise God for a heart beat. This can go on forever.

What’s the point? There’s no right or wrong way to praise God. Let’s sincerely, boldly, and unashamedly praise our loving God with everything we have to give.
