If They Keep Quiet, The Stones Will Cry Out

Jesus said these words to the Pharisees who wanted him to rebuke his disciples for praising God. Jesus' reply was pretty simple If they don't do it, the stones will! Jesus knew that He was so worthy of praise, the works of His Father in heaven were so worthy of praise that praise was mandatory, regardless of the source!

The Lord God is worthy of our praise! The disciples were praising God joyfully and in loud voices for all the miracles they had seen Jesus perform. They said, "Blessed is the king

Praise the LORD. Psalms 150:6

Psalm 150:6 says, "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord!" This verse is such a powerful reminder of the universal call to worship God. It doesn’t set limits or qualifications—if you are living and breathing, you’re invited to praise!

Think about that for a moment. No matter your situation, whether life is smooth or you're navigating challenges, this verse tells us we are created to worship. It’s not about how talented we are or whether we feel “worthy.” It’s about acknowledging the One who gave us life and breath in the first place.

Throughout the Psalms, David often praises God in all circumstances. In Psalm 34:1, he declares, “I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.” That’s the attitude we’re called to have. Praising God isn’t just for Sunday mornings—it’s a daily response to His goodness and faithfulness.

So, take a moment today. Whether you’re singing, praying, or just reflecting silently, let your breath—your life—bring glory to Him. Because as long as we’re alive, we have a reason to praise.
