It is good to sing praises to the Lord; to sing praises to the Most High. -Psalm 92:1(NLT)
SING PRAISE TO THE LORD
A poem and essay by ILMA
Sing out loud to praise the Most High
It will definitely change your life
When you glorify the Lord with your voice
You are doing well; you’ve made a good choice.
Sing praise to the Lord Jesus Christ
It will make you prosper and thrive
When you magnify him through psalms and hymns
It is a form of worship that makes you overcome sin.

Someone told me when I was a young girl that when you sing praises to the Lord, He hears more clearly. Because I was gifted with a good singing voice, I always sang out loud at church. I became a church choir member at a young age. That notion about being heard more if I sing my heart out stuck with me for many years of my life. I think it was the Holy Spirit who used that person to let me know that singing praise to the Lord is something that God wants me to engage in.
King David was always playing a musical instrument and singing psalms and writing poetry. The book of Psalms was a compilation of how he magnified the Lord with his gift for music and poetic rhythm. It is good to sing praises to the Lord Most High.
