Pastor Edward V. Lightfoot
Sermon: "A Prayer of Praise and Thanksgiving"
Sermon text: Psalm 100:4
Call to Worship: 34:1-3
Responsive Reading: Psalm 100
Introduction: One of the things that we as humans experience is difficulty in communicating with one another. We ask how are you and you say fine when you really are not. We use and have many clichés for a number of things we want to communicate, but say nothing. Clichés never allows one to truly communicate or develop good relationships. When one truly needs to communicate with God clichés want do. Clichés will not allow you to know the Lord, but intimate and open prayer will.
I. Praise and thanksgiving acknowledge the nature of God.
II. Praise is an action of the will.
III. Some encouragement for praise and thanksgiving.
Conclusion: God alone is worthy of being worshiped. What is your attitude toward worship? Are your prayers full of clichés and lack intimacy? Do you willingly and joyfully come into God’s presence, are you just going through the motions, reluctantly going to church? This psalm tells us to remember God’s goodness and dependability, and then to worship with thanksgiving and praise!
