Praise looks good on you, my sister!

“Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous! For praise from the upright is beautiful” Psalm 33:1, NKJV

I can think of a list of things I consider beautiful. A sunrise over a calm sea. The moon and stars in the night sky. A mother holding her baby for the first time. A bride on her wedding day. Flowers in spring. A family holding hands and praying together. Yet, none of these things compare to how the Lord feels when we praise Him. To God, nothing is more beautiful than watching you lift your hands, sing your song and do your dance because you know He’s good and nothing is too hard for Him. Praise looks good on you, my sister! You look absolutely amazing when you are bragging on God and telling everyone around you how awesome your God is and what only He can do! All of the heaviness is being lifted from off of you now. The Lord is turning your mourning into dancing. The Lord is turning your sorrow into joy. He is filling your mouth with praise. He is helping you trust Him like never before. He is giving you the strength to bless Him this morning with a shout, with a dance and with a new song because praise looks good on you!

Prayer: Father, I praise you for all that you are and all you’ve done for me. I praise you because you are my God and nothing is too hard for you. Thank you for removing all heaviness and for giving me a garment of praise. Help me talk about how good you are, rather than how bad problems are. Help me keep praise in my mouth because you are good and you are faithful! In Jesus’ name, Amen.

(Read Isaiah 61:3; Philippians 4:4)

  1. God I give you all the honor and all the glory. I praise your Holy name. I will forever be grateful, in the good times and even in the not so good times. Thank you Lord for keeping me and protecting me. Thank you Sister Kesha for allowing God to use you to bless other. Hallelujah ✝️

  2. In the midst of this long season of praying for my 20yr old daughter to surrender to God, to stop trying to fight depression with out God, she knows the answer, tho she was brought up in a good church, praying parents, and biblical principles were taught, she chose at 18 to go her own way! Broke my heart! She struggled with suicide and still won’t turn to Abba Father!
    I’ve learned to praise God thru the most horrific times and He’s given me back much more! His peace to get through each season.

    Thank you for this word. No matter the season, He deserves our praise!
    Pray for Savannah Q.
    My wayward girl.. tears in my heart! Staying on my knees! Nothings gonna stop my praise!

You have only to rest in His arms and to TRUST…T-taking R-refuge..U-under..S-secure…T-transition.

God returned them to me better than they left!! ❤️❤️❤️

  11. Keisha you done did it with that Keith Staten Worship In The House throwback girl!!! I LOVE you for this! This took me back to my graduating year of college. These cds were on REPEAT I tell ya and my boyfriend and I would be bumping them like we were listening to hard core rap music or something… getting our FULL praise on….we married a year later but our 23 yr marriage has been filled with much distrust, disappointment, brokenness, pain, and hurt and seperation.

    This song brought back simpler, easier, less complicated times. It brought a smile to my spirit as I worshipped this morning. And I sent the song over to my husband just now too and hopefully it ministered to him as it did me.

    I feel this was a personal reminder to me from God in His restorative power and that even in the midst of troubled and dark times, He is still in the midst, working things out. We just give it ALL to Him (our fears, failures, pains, anger, even disbeliefs) and exchange it for praise and watch Him move and work!

    Thank you for you obedience to the Spirit and seeking Him as you write. Your devotionals really do make a difference.

  12. Praise confuses the enemy, at a season of trial all around when he knows things are tough he expects us to cave in…Praise God no matter what, it confuses the enemy and fuses us to our Heavenly Father…God inhabits the praises of His people. Hearts of love and gratitude for all he has done all He is doing and all He will do…Confident in Him no matter how dread things look….Praise Him because He will never forsake the soul that trusts in Him.
    Hallelujah Father …all praise and glory to your matchless name right now Lord, as the enemy thinks i am defeated because of my pain…I will praise You in the good and the bad…Hallelujah!!!

  13. THANK YOU LORD for ministering to me this morning with song. THANK YOU Sister Kesha for the necessary tool to be able to “PRAISE OUR FATHER “. He does inherit the PRAISES of His people and that’s just what I did. “BECAUSE PRAISE IS WHAT I DO”❣️
    💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
