DAILY PRAYER (BY SPURGEON)
Oh, what encouragement we have to pray to such a prayer-hearing God, who far exceeds the requests of his children! Blessed be the name of the Lord forever; our inmost heart is saying, Amen, blessed be his name! If it were only for answered prayer, or even for some unanswered prayers, we would continue to praise and bless you “as long as we have any being” (Psalm 104:33, KJV).
Amen.
VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)
“I will sing to the Lord all my life; I will sing praise to my God while I live.” (Psalm 104:33)
Here and hereafter the Psalmist would continue to praise the Lord, for the theme is an endless one, and remains forever fresh and new. The birds sang God’s praises before men were created, but redeemed men will sing his glories when the birds are no more. The Lord, who always lives and makes us to live shall be for ever exalted, and extolled in the songs of redeemed men.
Note the sweet title—my God. We never sing so well as when we know that we have an interest in the good things of which we sing, and a relationship to the God whom we praise.
