One of the ways I love to praise God at night as I am preparing to sleep is to open my Bible to the Psalms, pick a tune I know (old hyms. secular tunes, any melody works), and sing a Psalm. Sometimes I get to the end of a paragraph with one more line in my tune, so I go back and repeat an earlier line to reinforce God’s words.
19 I pray that you will continually experience the immeasurable greatness of God’s power made available to you through faith. Then your lives will be an advertisement of this immense power as it works through you! This is the mighty power 20 that was released when God raised Christ from the dead and exalted him to the place of highest honor and supreme authority in the heavenly realm! 21 And now he is exalted as first above every ruler, authority, government, and realm of power in existence! He is gloriously enthroned over every name that is ever praised,[y] not only in this age, but in the age that is coming![aa] 22 And he alone is the leader and source of everything needed in the church. God has put everything beneath the authority of Jesus Christ and has given him the highest rank above all others. 23 And now we, his church, are his body on the earth and that which fills him who is being filled by it! (Ephesians 1:19-23, TPT)
