The Power of Praise

The Power of Praise  - Twelve

     Here is a powerful reality, when one decides to give a sacrifice of praise.  When you praise and glorify the Lord when you do not feel or want to and praise Him a great release will happen.  You see the devil and the world want you to stay in bondage.  They want you to feel that you cannot thank God for the things that have happened.  They know that true freedom happens when we learn that in everything we are to give thanks to the Lord.  Paul said, “That all things work together for good.”  He did not say that all things were good but that all things work together for good.  When you trust the Lord in the bad times as well as the good, you are truly a person that has learned the secret of praise and worship.  Today stand and shout unto the Lord.  Raise your voice, hands and hearts to the Lord.  Remember if you do not praise Him the rocks and stones will cry out.  You are the one creature on this planet with the full capacity to praise the Lord.  Your sacrifice must be willing and with it you will see a mighty release.  God is your strength, fortress and help.  He will never leave or forsake you.  You are His great ambassador of victory.  Rise up today in freedom you have in Christ and never allow yourself to be again put into bondage.  Shake off those heavy bands and lift up your holy hands unto the Lord.  Lift up hands without wrath and malice.  When you do this you will truly see the salvation and victory of the Lord your God.
