We wake up every day and look to press forward with the things that we have planned. It’s in the nature of every person to develop themselves somehow, whether to the good or to the bad. We have spoken vehemently about finding our Purpose in God and the steps thereof.
As we go on this pursuit, we must NEVER forget this critical
element called Praise! You see, this entire journey of Purpose Pursuit is in
the Hands of God, so is our very lives in fact and it’s important to remember
to praise Him.
1 Peter 4:11, “If any man speak, let
him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth:
that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise
and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.”
Hebrews 13:15, “By him therefore
let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.
I have been reminded of the power of praise. Candi Staton
sings a song called, ‘Hallelujah Anyway’.
‘You have some problems, you need God to solve them, and you
get down on your knees and pray…’ you know that song right? If you don’t,
please check it out… its chorus says, ‘Praise Him ‘till your blessings come
down, praise Him ‘till your situation turns around, you’ve got to lift up your
voice and sing, Hallelujah anyway, Hallelujah any weh eh ehi’ lol, not sure how
to write what they do at the end there.
I want to say that on this road with Jehovah and as we grow
and mature in Him, that things aren’t easy and aren’t going to be easy. Walking
in His purpose for our lives means walking in victory and crippling the kingdom
of the evil one. It stands to reason that he ain’t gonna just let us do that
without putting up a fight.
Judah is one of the tribes of Israel and they majored in
praise. They would at times go ahead of them all and with trumpets, they would
lead the charge.
Praise is powerful and so is telling others what God has
done for us!
1 Chronicles 16:8 says, ‘Give thanks unto the LORD, call upon his name, make
known his deeds among the people.’
So in the next few posts, let’s spend some time praising and
making known His deeds.
Stay Tuned…
TGBTG!

Stay Blessed, Be Multiplied!
