All Shall Hear My Praise!

June 4, 2021

I will praise You with my whole heart; Before the gods I will sing praises to You.

~Psalms 138:1~

We have so much to praise God for! We are all living, breathing and reading this word right now. As we do, we know that God is with us. He dwells within us. He is our Maker, our Provider and our greatest Friend!

There truely is so much we have to shout to the Heavens for my friends. Today let us focus on praising out loud. Let all that is around us, seen and unseen, hear our praise!

David's praise came from his whole heart.

"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength." (Deuteronomy 6:5)

He desired to grow closer to Adonai's heart; he sang praises before the gods, he made sure to state that he belonged to the One true living God alone and all others were to realize his committment through praise. Clearly our foes hate praises to God, it stings their ears. The louder we shout the greater God sends forth the latter rain of blessing.

"then I will give you the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil." (Deuteronomy 11:14)

The faithfulness of the Lord is much to sing praises for every single day, even if we are in a mood opposite of singing those are the times where we shall sing louder. Fighting off our negative feelings with shouts of joy to the Lord will bring those emotions to an end. God always moves in to the sounds of His children, satan always moves out; "Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him For the help of His countenance." (Psalms 42:5)

The enemy wants us to remain quiet, therefore let us joyously shout! Our Father gives us many good gifts and we have more then we can even see. My friends, open up your spiritual eyes to the full promises of God. There is much we have not yet even understood. The work of God never ends, He never sleeps and He never takes breaks. We get to however sleep at night, take breaks when we become weary and have days off work as necessary. Praise Him! We see His work taking place for healing, restoration and resurrection in our souls. Praise Him! We battle with Jesus beside us in times of tribulation and are never alone. Praise Him! We have all of our debts paid in full by the Blood of Jesus. Praise Him! As followers of Christ we should be able to truely see more good then bad in our life. If we struggle with this, perhaps its time to really praise the Lord; to show our appreciation for life itself and watch other truths open up to us as we do.

"The Lord opens the eyes of the blind; The Lord raises those who are bowed down; The Lord loves the righteous." (Psalms 146:8)

Let all that is around hear our praises and either join us in God's glory or flee at the very sound of it! Our shouts of victory will cause intercession by God; "Then the men of Judah gave a shout; and as the men of Judah shouted, it happened that God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah." (II Chronicles 13:15)

Our shouts will cause walls to fall down for us to rise up; "It shall come to pass, when they make a long blast with the ram’s horn, and when you hear the sound of the trumpet, that all the people shall shout with a great shout; then the wall of the city will fall down flat. And the people shall go up every man straight before him.” (Joshua 6:5)

We will begin to see God move quicker and with joy in His heart that we love Him enough to praise Him in uncertain moments. For faith runs through our blood and we can push it out of our mouths in word; "comfort your hearts and establish you in every good word and work." (II Thessalonians 2:17)

Today we can focus on increasing such praise in our day to day lives as God never stops from us; why then shall we stop from Him? Let the ones who come up against Jesus hear our shouts of praise to the One who died to give us all that we have. For there is more coming that we can sing for, let us start now as we receive it in faith outside of God's time frame knowing He is faithful to bring it to pass. The King is alive, we are alive with Him and we walk beside Him so long as we believe that we do. Agree with David's advice and sing praises so all may know how we really feel!

Prayer:

Lord God, I thank you and I praise You with all of my being today and here on out! It is because of You that I am alive and free from death eternally. It is because of You that my enemies have no hold on me. It is because of You I have gifts of heaven to fulfill my calling. Hear my praise O Lord and draw nearer to my heart. I am in awe of Your greatness and appreciate all that You give to me and my family. We did nothing to earn it. Your grace is sufficient enough and I know that more blessings are on the way! My Father is so pure and lovely and He deserves all of my praise everyday! May all glory and honor be given to You each day, in the Name of my Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
