Who Do We Praise?

We are going through the old testament book Daniel in Sunday School. We started in chapter 1 and are making our way through verse by verse. Is there any other way to study our Bible, besides verse by verse? Absolutely not! God never intended for us to take His Word out of context. 

Last week we studied Daniel 5 and as many times as I have read through Daniel I never took much notice of verse 23. Check out the last of that verse..."And you have praised the gods of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone, which do not see or hear or know; and the God who holds your breath in His hand and owns all your ways, you have not glorified."

Did you get that? The God who holds our breath in His hands and owns ALL our ways, we have not glorified. OUCH! How many times have I been guilty of not giving God the glory He is due. 

My prayer is that I will give God all the glory He is due every moment of my life...He deserves it! My question for you is "Who do you Praise (glorify)? The god of silver and gold, bronze and iron, wood and stone or the God who holds your breath in His hands and owns all your ways?"
