 Psalm 141:2;

2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice

In the Old Testament Temple, the altar of incense burned continuously, day and night. The rising smoke was a picture of prayer and praise ascending to God. Even in the middle of the stench of burning sacrifices, the sweet aroma of worship covered the air. This is a picture of the Christian life. We will face seasons that are difficult, painful, and even ugly. But praise does not wait for perfect circumstances. Praise declares that God is worthy regardless of what surrounds us. When you choose to praise God in the middle of a mess, the enemy loses his grip and God's power is released. Today, whatever you are facing, praise God! You are hurting Praise God for the power of comfort! You have questions? Praise God for wisdom to understand when you cant understand! Praise God this day!

Let’s praise  the Lord for His goodness and mercies in our lives! Praise Him for the blessings that we enjoy and protection that He gives!

You are loved and you have been prayed for! Trent
