Exalt and Magnify (Psalm 34:3)

Today's scripture: Psalm 34:3

To magnify is "to make something greater" or "to cause to be held in greater esteem or respect" (Merriam-Webster's Dictionary). When we magnify the Lord, we tell of His greatness, of His majesty, of His holiness.

To exalt is "to raise something to a higher level" or "to praise highly" or "to elevate by praise" (M-W Dictionary). When we exalt the Lord, we rightfully praise Him for His many attributes.

There truly is not god like our God. He is the Creator of the universe, and He is sovereign over all. He is Alpha and Omega. He sees all. He knows all. He provides for our needs and is our refuge in the storm. He loves us everlastingly, and He is with us always.

He is our healer and giver of strength. He walks alongside us every day ... and sometimes carries us when we can't take another step.

He is Savior, Redeemer, and Friend. He is Protector and Guide.

He is everything.

So, how can we do anything less than magnify His name? How can we not share His goodness and grace and mercy with those around us? How can we not praise Him and exalt Him ... every day?

Take a moment now and just meditate on His love for you. His provision. His grace. His mercy. And then spend even more moments magnifying His name and exalting Him.
