Bless the Lord

Dr. Steve Hereford

Today Pastor Steve exhorted believers to cultivate a daily habit of intentional self-talk that focuses on blessing the Lord with their whole being. Drawing from Psalm 103, it emphasizes that true worship requires stirring up one's inner spirit rather than relying on empty rituals or lukewarm habits. The preacher highlights specific benefits of God, including the forgiveness of sins, healing from diseases, and redemption from death, as primary reasons for this persistent gratitude. By recalling these mercies, individuals are encouraged to overcome discouragement and maintain a vibrant, heartfelt relationship with God. Ultimately, the message asserts that genuine praise flows from a personal knowledge of Christ and a recognition of His abundant grace.
