In what ways can we proclaim God's greatness to others this week? Psalm 66:3 in Focus “Say to God, ‘How awesome are Your works! Because of Your great power Your enemies cower before You.’” Why Our Words Matter • The psalmist invites us to voice God’s greatness, not keep it private. • Our spoken praise reminds hearers—and ourselves—of His power, goodness, and ongoing activity. • When we credit God openly, we shift conversations from human achievement to divine glory. Six Simple Ways to Proclaim His Greatness This Week • Share answered prayers. Mention specifically how God provided, healed, or guided. • Weave Scripture into everyday talk. Quoting a verse like Psalm 145:6—“They will proclaim the power of Your awesome deeds”—turns casual conversation into testimony. • Celebrate beauty in creation. A sunrise photo paired with “The heavens declare the glory of God” (Psalm 19:1) points observers to the Creator, not merely the scene. • Serve someone in need and explain your motive. “Christ’s love compels us” (2 Corinthians 5:14) frames the act as worship, not self-promotion. • Post gratitude publicly. A brief social-media note—“Thankful to the Lord for strength today, Psalm 28:7”—can reach circles you rarely see face-to-face. • Sing or play worship music where others can hear. Paul and Silas praised in prison (Acts 16:25); their songs became a witness before any sermon was preached. Scripture Echoes That Reinforce the Call • Isaiah 12:4 — “Give thanks to the LORD; proclaim His name; make His works known among the nations.” • 1 Peter 2:9 — “You are…a people for God’s own possession, to proclaim the virtues of Him who called you out of darkness.” • Psalm 145:4-7 — “One generation will proclaim Your works to the next…they will tell of Your mighty acts.” • Matthew 5:16 — “Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” • Colossians 4:5-6 — “Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders…let your speech always be gracious.” Keeping the Spotlight on Him This week, look for moments to say aloud, type out, or sing the truth: God’s works are awesome. Every story of provision, every glimpse of beauty, every act of love is an opportunity to echo Psalm 66:3 and lead someone else to praise Him too. |
