(TEXT: Psalms 27:6)
And now shall mine head be lifted up above mine enemies round about me: therefore will I offer in his tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the LORD.
FOCUS :
Yesterday, by the Grace of God we started the journey of this series. And we spoke about three reasons why we should praise God. Reason number one, because you are made in God’s image; number two, you are not sick; and why reason number three, you are not in the prison. These are the three point we discussed yesterday, and truly, we need to praise God for all these particularly, if God had been faithful to you in all these three aforementioned. Praising God gives you access to receive more from God, because whenever your praises goes up and it’s acceptable by God, surely blessings will be released upon you.
Psalms 148:14
He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.
1 Peter 2:9
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
In addition, today, by the special Grace of God, let talk about other reasons why we should praise God. And on that note: let move to number four, praise God because you are not mad. You see, let me tell you the truth, it is not only those who are walking naked on the street or in the marketplace that are regarded as mad fellow. There are some people who are still living under our roof clothed with nice clothes, but they are moronic or lunatic. However, God has not allowed the plans of the enemies over you to run you made, you should praise God. Madness is not a good thing. There are many mad people around us who know no heat, when it’s sunny, when it’s rainy, who sleeps anywhere and eat and drinks anything. But your own case is not like that, PRAISE GOD.
Mark 5:2-9 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit, Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains: Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him. And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones. But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him, And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not. For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit. And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
Finally, number five, praise God because you are moving and not stagnant. You see, you might not have arrived where you wanted to be, but the truth is, you are not where you used to be. God has been faithful to you in many ways and moving you forward from one little journey to another. Compared to some people who are stocked and couldn’t move anywhere. Even though they are seeing, but they are either been afraid of taking step forward or they have been magnetized spiritually, emotionally or mentally. Praise God because you can move your body, you are in charge by the Grace of God of your own movement.
John 5:5-9 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity thirty and eight years. When Jesus saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, he saith unto him, Wilt thou be made whole? The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me. Jesus saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk. And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.
BE SAFE AND GET!
God bless you richly!
Jesus Christ loves you
