Circling Him in Praises Chapter by Chapter…
In 2015 I actually started circling praises chapter by chapter. My desire is to praise Him with all my heart. I needed to strengthen my praise time and it was truly a struggle for me to not multi task God and my prayer time. He put this idea on my heart. I remember getting what I call my praise Bible when I was with Kevin on a Bible college visit. The campus bookstore had a beautiful green, blue, white and brown floral print Bible. I wanted a clean unmarked Bible to read through slowly and Praisefully. I’ve completed many plans and Bible readings to get through the Bible in a year and those are wonderful! He will never not speak to your heart when you open His word, but I wanted to settle in more and really absorb how WORTHY He is of ALL my PRAISES! “One generation shall praise thy works to another, and shall declare thy mighty acts.” Psalms 145:4 I currently am still circling (21017 Actually finished this page in the fall of 2018!) but wanted to dedicate a page for this. I will use this as my personal praise reference for years to come, and on my you version Bible app I started highlighting what I’ve circled in green (the color of new life and transplants!) I keep having to put myself in check because I do like to mark things off lists but when I try to rush this just to check off a chapter He nudges me and reminds me ever so gently what I’m doing. I have had great happiness within that only comes from Him and I feel like all that has lined up with my personal life happenings which makes this all the more perfect. He knows what He has in store for us and His plan is perfect. He knows when I will finish; He’s in every circle I circle. And I Praise Him for…

“And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son: (Also he bade them teach the children of Judah the use of the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jasher.) The beauty of Israel is slain upon thy high places: how are the mighty fallen! Tell it not in Gath, publish it not in the streets of Ashkelon; lest the daughters of the Philistines rejoice, lest the daughters of the uncircumcised triumph. Ye mountains of Gilboa, let there be no dew, neither let there be rain, upon you, nor fields of offerings: for there the shield of the mighty is vilely cast away, the shield of Saul, as though he had not been anointed with oil. From the blood of the slain, from the fat of the mighty, the bow of Jonathan turned not back, and the sword of Saul returned not empty. Saul and Jonathan were lovely and pleasant in their lives, and in their death they were not divided: they were swifter than eagles, they were stronger than lions. Ye daughters of Israel, weep over Saul, who clothed you in scarlet, with other delights, who put on ornaments of gold upon your apparel. How are the mighty fallen in the midst of the battle! O Jonathan, thou wast slain in thine high places. I am distressed for thee, my brother Jonathan: very pleasant hast thou been unto me: thy love to me was wonderful, passing the love of women.

You guide. “Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the Lord? Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the Lord shall be thy rearward. Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: And the Lord shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in.” Isaiah 58:5-12

Praise you intercede… Thank you! “And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him. For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak. According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence. So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord. As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.” Isaiah 59:16-21

Praise we are your crown and glory! (This verse is where I was when Tiffany and Grant found out they were having a girl: Bailey! 8/2/16) “Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the Lord, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.” Isaiah 62:3
