I MAGNIFY THE LORD<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Psalm 34:1,3, Amplified Bible<\/strong><\/p>\n

I will bless the LORD at all times:\u00a0 his praise shall continually be in my mouth.<\/p>\n

O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together.<\/p>\n

Psalm 69:30<\/strong><\/p>\n

I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving.<\/p>\n

If we look up the word \u201cmagnify\u201d in the dictionary, it means \u201cto make great or greater, to increase, to enlarge.\u201d\u00a0 In Cruden\u2019s Concordance the word \u201cmagnify\u201d means \u201cto declare and show forth one\u2019s greatness and glory, to increase one\u2019s esteem, reputation, and authority.\u201d<\/p>\n

Blessing the Lord and praising Him magnifies Him in our lives.\u00a0 It causes Him to become greater than our problems.\u00a0 It elevates Him to level of priority in our lives.\u00a0 It causes us to see beyond our small earthly world to the great, immense supernatural realm of God\u2019s Kingdom.\u00a0 It changes us from small thinking to possibility thinking.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When we magnify the Lord, He hears us and delivers us from all our fears.\u00a0 We do not want for any good thing.\u00a0 He redeems our soul from destruction.\u00a0 We are blessed to see His goodness in the land of the living.\u00a0 His eyes are ever upon us and His ears are ever open to our voice.\u00a0 He hears His beloved children and He sees us and He delivers us.<\/p>\n

In 2 Samuel 7:26<\/strong> we read:\u00a0 And let thy name be magnified for ever\u2026.<\/p>\n

We are to magnify the name of the Lord.\u00a0 We are to show forth His greatness and His glory and His authority.\u00a0 It is all in His name.<\/p>\n

But now look at this passage of scripture in Psalm 138:1,2<\/strong>:\u00a0 \u201cI will praise you with my whole heart; before the gods will I sing praise unto you.\u00a0 I will worship toward your holy temple, and praise your name for your loving-kindness and for your truth:\u00a0 for you have magnified your word above all your name.\u201d<\/p>\n

God says this:\u00a0 Yes, let My name be magnified; praise Me.\u00a0 Praise My name for My loving-kindness and for My Truth.\u00a0 For I have magnified My Word (My Truth) above all My name.\u00a0 This passage of scripture tells me that He holds His Word as His Truth in the highest place of honor and respect and authority.\u00a0 You and I must do the same.<\/p>\n

We are to SAY CONTINUALLY:\u00a0 LET THE LORD GOD BE MAGNIFIED (in me, in my family, in my body, in my marriage, in my job, in my country, in my home, in my children).\u00a0 I say continually:\u00a0 Let God be magnified as my victory, as my deliverance, as my prosperity, as my health, as my help, as my success, as my overcomer, as my LORD.\u00a0 Amen, So Be It!<\/p>\n

Psalm 35:27<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Let them shout for joy, and be glad, that favor my righteous cause:\u00a0 yes, let them say continually, Let the LORD be magnified, which has pleasure in the prosperity of his servant.<\/p>\n

Psalm 40:16<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee:\u00a0 let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified.<\/p>\n

Psalm 70:4<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee:\u00a0 and let such as love thy salvation (victory, deliverance, aid, prosperity, health, help, welfare) say continually, Let God be magnified.<\/p>\n
