Magnify the Lord - Annie Sherwin

Recently the Lord has been reminding me to Magnify Him.

There is an enemy who loves nothing more than to cause us to focus on troubles, worries, concerns and obstacles in our lives. With our co-operation they can become magnified!

But recently Rob reminded us of the word in Psalm 34:3:

Oh magnify Jehovah with me, And let us exalt his name together. (American Standard)

&

Come, let us tell of the Lord’s greatness; let us exalt his name together. (New Living Translation)

When we choose to magnify the Lord over our situations, it lessens the strength those circumstances have on our lives and our emotions.

It is a choice though!

The apostle Paul encourages us in Philippians 4:8: 'And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable.

Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise.

Verse 9: Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing. Then the God of peace will be with you.'

My encouragement is the Lord is excellent and worthy of our praise! Choose to magnify Him and know His wonderful peace.
