Good morning, my friends. Good afternoon, good evening, whatever time day it is that you are listening. I welcome you. I hope you're starting your day with the opportunity and the commitment to getting your mind

aligned with the truth of God. I say that phrase episode after episode and it

continues to ring true in my mind that we have got to get our minds.

Our minds first and foremost, aligned with God's truth.

Because viewing life through the filter of his truth enables us to see rightly.

I mean think about it for a moment. What do we call a person who lives their life not according to truth. We call them many things perhaps but out of touch

with reality is one. Someone who is insane. That is not what we want for ourselves. That is not the way we want to live life.

We want to see things through the lens of God's truth.

We're going to do that today by looking at Psalm number 148 and as I was reading through this

Psalm something I noticed was that this Psalm gives us instructions for how to praise the Lord. Let's listen, says

praise the Lord, praise the Lord from the heavens, praise him in the Heights,

praise him all his angels.

Praise him all his hosts.

Praise him sun and moon.

Praise him all you shining stars.

Praise him you highest heavens and you waters above the heavens.

Let them praise the name of the Lord for he commanded and they were created.

And he established them forever and ever he gave a decree, and it shall not pass away.

Praise the Lord from the Earth, you great sea creatures and all deeps, fire and hail, snow and

mist, stormy wind fulfilling his word.

Mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars, beasts and all livestock,

creeping things and flying birds.
