Psalm 118:28 NIV
“You are my God, and I will praise You; You are my God, and I will exalt You.”
Motivational speakers and others commonly use the term ‘affirmation’ to refer to a personal declaration. Today’s verse is one such affirmation where the psalmist proclaims that the Lord is his God, highlighting his personal relationship with the Lord. It is a powerful declaration of faith and complete devotion to God. The verse reiterates the supremacy of God and the need for Him to be an integral part of our lives.
How do we build a personal and intimate relationship with God? By praising Him in all seasons of our lives and exalting Him above all our desires. Glorifying God is not a task that is done once a day or once a week; it is a lifestyle built by acknowledging God’s presence, surrendering to His will, and following God’s Word in all areas of our lives.
The King of kings and Lord of lords is our God, and He alone deserves all our praise. Today, take the time to declare Psalm 118:28 as your own affirmation. Let it be a profound expression of your unwavering faith and commitment to God. As you exalt the Lord above everything else, you will experience His supremacy in every area of your life. Let’s lift His Name above all other names and establish His sovereignty over our lives.
