Elevate Your Praise

Praise the Lord. Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise in the assembly of his faithful people. Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the people of Zion be glad in their King. Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with timbrel and harp. For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with victory. Let his faithful people rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on their beds. May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands, to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples, to bind their kings with fetters, their nobles with shackles of iron,to carry out the sentence written against them - this is the glory of all his faithful people. Praise the Lord.

- Psalm 149, NKJV

Elevate your praise to the Lord and know that has done great things for you…and has even better in store if you simply surrender your heart, mind, body, and soul to Him. Perhaps somewhat difficult while you are enduring the struggles of “here” this day, this hour, this very moment, but absolutely the “eccentric” thing required to initiate your breakthrough from whatever “it” is that has you bound. Life will always have its heavyweight contenders itching to knock you out and keep you down; however, as long you are connected to God through Christ, you may lose but you’re never defeated. Unfortunately this is not a worldly concept, rather a Kingdom mindset predicated on your love and praise for God. Your victory IS with God…all you have to do is say “yes” and “amen.” You don’t have to understand it (the how and when are irrelevant), you just have to believe it…and once you do, you can’t help but praise Him. Today let your praise be your weapon of choice as you go into battle…then watch how God’s glory overcomes each and every one of your enemies, situations, and circumstances.

BE BLESSED!
