Psalms 34:1
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
Blessing the Lord at all times means gratitude becomes the constant posture of our hearts.
David commits to bless the Lord at all times, with praise continually in his mouth. This isn't occasional gratitude when things go well, but perpetual thanksgiving regardless of circumstances. David wrote this psalm while fleeing from danger, yet chose continual praise. This teaches us that consistent gratitude is a choice of faith, not a response to favorable conditions.
