Memory verse:
“Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee.”
“Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us”
“God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.”
Praise is not an entertainment or a way of having spiritual fun, rather praise is a spiritual tool designed to make things happen Psa. 67:5-7. The effectiveness of every tool is a function of the understanding of each person on the use of it, and what to expect when appropriately put to use. The same applies to praise; our understanding on how to praise and what happens when we praise is vital for it to deliver maximally Psa. 47:7. One thing that is guaranteed is that when the believer engages in true praise, things change in his life and around him Hab. 3:17-19; Acts 16:25-27.
How does praise effect turnaround in believer’s life.
From scriptures, we understand that there are diverse obstacles and hurdles in the path of every believer to his promised land Hab. 3:4-6. In praise we invoke the manifestation of God’s presence that causes those mountains and hills to clear off, to grant access into our promised land Psa. 114:1-8.
Every time we engage in praise, we create the atmosphere to hear the voice of God clearly Isa. 30:29-30. In essence, praise grants the believer access to the voice of God, which is the key to supernatural breakthroughs in life Psa. 23:1-4; 32:8.
We can therefore say that the believer can praise his way out of every stagnation and limitations into breakthroughs in life Hab. 3:17-19. The believer can also praise his way out of every sickness to health and wholeness Isa. 38:19-20,5.
