TOPIC: WHY PRAISING GOD 2?: No Shame
Memory Verse: 1 Thess. 5:18.
“18 In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
Bible Reading: Ps. 34:5
“5 They looked to Him and were radiant, And their faces were not ashamed.”
One of the reasons why we should also Praise God this season is the fact that, The Lord rescued us from every forms of shame, home and abroad. He delivered us from situations that would have expose our weaknesses and bring reproach to the name of God. This year has been a year where needs rose up in almost 400% compared to other years. The first thing that easily attract shame is debt. God delivered many of us in this area and made all important needs met at the right time. Many would have experienced shame in their homes, work place, environment or over their children one way or the other, but the Lord came for our rescue and took every shame away, this is enough reason to give God Praise.
The psalmist said, “They looked to Him and were radiant, And their faces were not ashamed.”
I will like to paraphrase it this way, “We looked to Him and were radiant, And our faces were not ashamed. How many times have you asked God to intervene in those situations that would have attracted reproach and God did showed up? He showed up for us beyond what men could do. He gave us double honour in the place of shame, He deserve all our Praises today and forever more. This is what I know and still believe, He will still not put us to Shame before the year runs out in Jesus Mighty name, Amen. For the shame the Lord has wiped away in your life this year, God deserve your highest Praise.
