One of the most powerful spiritual weapon that a Christian has is ‘Praise’ even though it’s one of the most challenging to use or know how to use perhaps second to ‘Faith’.
Praising God is the activator to the presence and power of God. Exodus15:11 Your praise brings God on the scene Psalm22:3 because God has ordained your mouth for victory. Psalm8:2”, Matthew 21:16. When you are feeling down, depressed, irritated, ready to give up, sad, emotionally tired or you can’t think another thought apart from your troubles and pain, that is the time for Praise.
Praise to God is communicating who he is, what He has done, and what He can do. The enemy is defeated by us praising God, His attributes, characteristics, actions, accomplishments, because this will cast down the discouraging, destructive, tempting thought attacks of the enemy. 2Corinthians10:3-5.
In fact before you go on, pray with me! Father, I confess as sin, my feeling of worthlessness and inability to testify of your faithfulness in my life. I ask your forgiveness for every way I have praised my troubles by using my mouth to limit my miracles and blessings in Jesus name. Amen.
God has placed a demand on us to give Him quality, unlimited, unreserved, genuine praise. Let’s go to the school of praise. A good result from the school of praise will qualify us for good success.
So what are the results that praise guarantees?
1. Praise guarantees victory in the challenges of life. Psalm9:1-3 shows us that praise humbles every enemy. Praise forces our enemies/challenges/oppositions to bow. Every time you complain, you drive God away from you; while every time you praise God, you attract Him to you, and when God, is attracted, he takes over your battle. That is why everyone who is a praiser loses no battle in life. David was said to have fought the most battles, yet lost none. Why? Because of his life of dedicated praise. Psalm149:5-9 says ‘Praise is an instrument of vengeance execution. So every time you want to torment your enemy, swing to praise. We see the same in 2Chronicles 20:20-22.
2. Praise leads to open doors. I want you to know that the door of life opens at the instance of praise. Praise is the Supreme key for open doors. The time has come for those doors you have been knocking to open. Graduate with flying colors from the school of praise. What do you use to open doors? See Revelation3:7. The key here is the key of David which is the key of praise. Whatever door that praises open never shuts. There is no one who praises God genuinely that can be shut out of their blessing! Acts 16:25 shows us how Paul and Silas prayed and praised God at their midnight hour, all the doors were opened and everyone became free through praise.
As you learn to praise God from today, all the doors you have been knocking shall open to you in Jesus Name. The Bible says all the doors opened as they began to praise God. The door of marriage, business, breakthrough, fruitfulness. Every door is open able in the midst of praise and it’s time for your door to open.
3. Praise leads to fruitfulness. Praise is the sure terminator of barrenness of every form. Whether barrenness bodily, barrenness in destiny, barrenness in the work of your hands, barrenness in relationships. When you offer God praise, barrenness bows out of your life. Isaiah54:1-3, Imagine God wants you to sing, shout aloud in what, in praise to him in your barrenness and you break out on all sides. Friends this is not the season to keep quiet but shout and praise the Lord.
I see God enlarging your coast in Jesus name.
Every time you praise God, all the things on earth are forced to yield for you. Praise mounts heavenly pressure on earthly things so they can produce according to the scriptures for you. Psalm67:5-7.
Before now, the earth may not be yielding to you, there may be nothing in your store, but after praise, struggles are no longer permitted, then the earth will yield her increase to you. Habakkuk3:17-19. As you begin to praise God in your situation, there will be a change for you in Jesus mighty name.
4. Praise causes supernatural lifting. A lifting that is superior to the natural, that is unexplainable. Jeremiah30:19 God says when there is joyous praise, he will multiply you, you will not be few, he will glorify you, you won’t be small. Every time you sincerely praise God, one area of your life goes up. I mean praise God, not just singing, or playing gospel music. Today as you praise God, God will terminate smallness in your life and lift you up in Jesus Name. As you praise God from today, heaven shall raise up your head in Jesus Name. Yes people are saying there is no help for you in God, but if you say, thou o Lord are a shield for me and my glory and lifter up of my head as in Psalm3:1-3,I don’t care how many are against you, God shall raise your head above your contemporaries in Jesus Name.
However, now that we see what praise can do, it only makes sense for us to find out how we can offer acceptable praise to God; because many sing praises, but do not experience the results we talked about earlier.
Come on beloved, cast out the spirit of depression, put on the garments of praise, because it is an act of faith. Let the devil become nervous and confused as you praise your way to top.
