With Praise and Thanks

With praise and thanks, they sang this song to the Lord: "He is so good! His faithful love for Israel endures forever!" Then all the people gave a great shout, praising the Lord. (Ezra 3:11 NLT)

Today's praise and prayer topics:

• Who is worried about your troubles today? Focus on the Lord's goodness and praise your worries away.
• Who is anxious over the difficulty you face today? Focus on the Lord's faithful love for us, giving thanks for what he's already done, releasing anxiety with a song of love and a shout of praise.
• Pray for one another, especially the discouraged, and fly to victory on the wings of praise.

Give thanks for God's generous care and for his answers to our prayers:

• Thanks be to God for the strength and stamina to stay in the fight.

As the praises go up, the power comes down.
