Scripture

Psalm 43

5 Why am I discouraged? Why is my heart so sad? I will put my hope in God! I will praise him again— my Savior and my God!

Observation

If you are bummed out this morning and all depressed why not do like the Psalmist and ask yourself “why”. If you are sad why not ask yourself “why am I so sad?” Then do as the Psalmist did and turn to God. Put your hope in God and begin to praise Him. Even if you don’t feel like it …do it. If He is your Savior and your God then there is no need to be depressed or sad. Praise Him right now!

Application

I will praise the Lord all day today. He is my Lord and my Savior. He is my God. He is the lifter up of my head.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I refuse to be depressed today. I look to You. I praise You. You are my Savior and my Lord. There is no need to be depressed. There is no reason to be sad. You are Mighty. You are my refuge. You are my strength. Mighty is Your Name.
