Isaiah 12:4
Give thanks to the Lord, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done and proclaim that his name is exalted.
What he has done is not just limited to the signs and wonders Jesus did for his three year earthly ministry. God has done wonderful things from the very beginning of time and continues to do them today.
God is 100% good. Any other notion is a lie. That's why he is worthy to be praised. We shall not forget all his benefits for he has wonderful plans for us.
A lot of times when it comes to God we want to be among people who understand us when we shout praises. Our brothers and sisters in Christ are a good safe choir to preach to but somehow we reserve ourselves when we are thrown into the midst of the world and the lost.
Jesus was different, he was a friend of sinners. He did not conform to the world but was not afraid to operate in it. Likewise, we should walk with the boldness of Christ and go into the world to be a witness. Not to be conformed by it but to change it and have a hunger for the lost
Rather that looking at a lost person with judgment in our heart we are to love them with the good news of their salvation which is at hand.
God's greatest miracle in each and every life is that he saved us from eternal torment. Help someone else realize this truth and that will be the greatest way to make his name known and exalt him for what he has done!
