Many give praise with one’s mouth speaking with the tongue but they are bowing down (worshiping) another god.
One’s own thoughts cannot be trusted. We cannot trust, cannot count on our feelings, emotions. We must take every thought to Elohim in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth—measuring every thought by the Word of Elohim.
And let our praise be unto Him, applying His Word in our daily living. Then our praise—our worship (bowing down) will be unto Him the One True Elohim, and Jesus Christ who He sent.
“Praise ye the LORD. Praise the LORD, O my soul. While I live will I praise the LORD: I will sing praises unto my God while I have any being. Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, In whom there is no help.
His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; In that very day his thoughts perish. Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in the LORD his God: Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: Which keepeth truth for ever: Which executeth judgment for the oppressed: Which giveth food to the hungry.
The LORD looseth the prisoners: The LORD openeth the eyes of the blind: The LORD raiseth them that are bowed down: The LORD loveth the righteous: The LORD preserveth the strangers; He relieveth the fatherless and widow: But the way of the wicked he turneth upside down.
The LORD shall reign for ever, even thy God, O Zion, Unto all generations. Praise ye the LORD.”
Psalm 146:1-10 KJV
HalleluYah!!!
