Let's continue to lift up Dhuirmore, praying for all negative energy to be cast out. "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you" (1 Peter 5:7). Trusting Jesus for peace and protection. In Jesus' name! 
Let's join in prayer for these urgent requests:
Let's lift up Stand up and bless the LORD your God for ever and ever: and blessed be thy glorious name, which is exalted above all blessing and praise.
—Nehemiah 9:5 (KJV)
"Stand up and shout it if you love my Jesus!" That's a song our children love to sing! But what happens to our youthful exuberance and joy at worshiping the LORD? God doesn't want us to lose it. Read through the Bible and highlight all the physical acts used to reverence and praise our awesome and eternal God — standing, bowing, kneeling, prostrating, lifting hands, clapping, shouting... and on and on we could go. In a world that regularly uses God's name in vain, isn't it time we stood up as believers and praised him for all he has done, is doing, and will do in the future? Shouldn't we do this not only in church buildings (our private worship) but also in our daily devotional times (our personal worship) and in the way we live daily (our public worship)? Yes! Let's "Stand up and praise the LORD [our] God, who is from everlasting to everlasting."
You alone are God and are worthy of all of my praise. Please receive my praise in my worship, whether I offer it in private with other Christians, in my daily personal worship times, or in my public worship, as I live as an example before my family, friends, and coworkers. Please receive the praise I seek to offer you in my life and through my words. In the name of Jesus, I praise you. Amen.
