PRAISE

 

Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren,..if there be any  praise, ..think on these things. 

praise: commendation, praiseworthy

We should make it a habit to comment on the good behavior and words of others, edifying the body of Christ. Let us worship and praise our God together for he is worthy

Psa 7:17  I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high. 

Psa 9:1  .... I will praise thee, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will shew forth all thy marvellous works. 

Praise that is flattery may not be good. Praise God rather than man. We should not accept praise that belongs to God. and we should not be afraid to publicly give praise to Jesus.

John 12:42  Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue: 

John 12:43  For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God. 

Psa 9:2  I will be glad and rejoice in thee: I will sing praise to thy name, O thou most High. 

Our work should be as to give praise to God. He has given us life and abilities and each new day.

Phl 1:11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
