The Amazing Power of Praise!

06 Dec The Amazing Power of Praise!

Among the offerings prophesied in Jeremiah that people will bring to the Lord are burnt offerings and sacrifices, grain offerings and incense, and thanks offerings.

🎯Out of the lot, the Scripture describes praise as the most acceptable to God

💥Indeed, what does one give to God who has everything.
It is praise because He inhabits praise.

💥Although He has choir of billions of angels, who sing better than humans, He is still looking for praise because He enjoys praise!

🎯Praise is not thanksgiving, which is done in return for what He has done for you.

🎯Although He enjoys thanking him in advance as an act of faith, which pleases him. And the Scripture says without faith is impossible to please God;

🎯Although He also enjoys thanking him when the battle is on, when we are facing crisis. God loves Praise, which is not thanksgiving or worship.

🎯Praise is when we are boasting about God. And there are many attributes of God to boast about; saying what He is.

💥God is the highest as the Scripture says. He is higher than the highest, with Heaven as his throne and the earth is his footstool.

💥He is the greatest, greater than the greatest

💥He is the oldest. The Bible calls him the Ancient of Days, who predates everything, including the mountains of life we face. God existed before beginnings. He is the Beginning of beginnings

💥He is the richest because the earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof

💥He is the wisest, in who Wisdom resides and He is the one who dispenses wisdom to people like He did to Solomon

💥He is the Alpha, so with Him nobody can temper with your destiny. Before you were born He knew you and settled your destiny.

💥He is the ending, so until He says it is over, it is not. He is the Omega.

💥He is unchanging and an unchanging changer.

💥And He is coming again. He said, ‘behold I come quickly,’ coming to take you to where He resides.

🎯That is the joy of belonging to God by surrendering completely to Him. And that is why we sing Hallelujah to Him.
