This article simply discusses the appropriateness of using the word "hallelujah" in certain situations. I encourage each one to examine his own heart and his speech in light of God's word. Are we truly honoring God, or are we cheapening our praise, exalting trivial matters of time and chance to a level equal to that of God's mighty works?

Perpetual praise is a good thing. The angels in heaven praise continually and so should we. Man cannot know the content of the heart. God knows our heart and when it is said with thanksgiving from the heart it matters to God. Every good and perfect gift comes from God, a close parking space, the end of a work day, a breath of air. If you hear someone say Hallelujah, don't judge the content of their heart, agree with the praise and also give God your praise. My brother in Christ, “His praise shall continually be in my mouth”.
