Praise His Name: MIGHTY ONE<\/strong>
\nThe Mighty One, God the LORD, has spoken and called the earth from the rising of the sun to its going down.<\/em> Psalm 50:1 (NKJV)<\/p>\n

Today’s Thought:<\/strong>
\nSomeone of superior power or strength, great in importance, exceptional! These words describe the Mighty One–our Lord God.<\/p>\n

For He, the Mighty One, is holy, and He has done great things for me. His mercy goes on from generation to generation, to all who fear Him.\u00a0<\/em> Luke 1:49-50 (NKJV)<\/p>\n

Today’s Praise Pause:<\/strong>
\nDear Lord God, I pause to praise You as the Mighty One, someone of superior power and strength who is always near to help me.
\nI see I have no need to fear anyone or anything, for none could stand against You!
\nYou are Holy, Mighty, Lord Most High, yet You love me, and You have done, and will yet do, great things for me!
\nI thank and praise You, Mighty One, for all You are to me!\u00a0 Amen!<\/p>\n

“The LORD your God in your midst, The Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet [you] with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing.”<\/em>
\nZephaniah 3:17 (NKJV)<\/p>\n
