The illusion of many Christians is to think that Christianity is a passive religion. The gospel of Jesus Christ has nothing to do with passivity otherwise, it places strong obligations on its followers to see the word come to pass. The gospel principally operates by commandments and praise is one of the commandments. “Let everything that hath breath praise God.” – Psalm 150:6.
Friend, laziness doesn’t fly with God. Those who praise God only on Sundays will lack the presence of God in the remaining days of the week.
I mentioned last week that praise is the gateway to God’s presence. You need God’s presence to fly in life. It’s God’s presence that makes things happen – not you. His presence makes all the difference. But you cannot find God’s presence where people strive, complain and grumble.
My aim is that your approach to praise, thanksgiving and worship must change. It takes a change of approach to have a transformative destiny. Do you want to see miracles flow to your direction every day? If your answer is YES, then, add praise to your efforts.
If you could have God’s presence, everything else that you need in life can be found there. All I’m talking about is that labor in praise as a lifestyle – not spontaneously. This is one of the surest buttons you should press this year to flow in the realm of the supernatural.
I’m writing to you from my heart – not my head, strange doors must open for you this year. But nothing strange happens in the natural realm except in the realm of the supernatural where signs and wonders occur. The bible says, “work out your salvation.” – Philippians 2:12. Your labor in praise is the surest way to be launched into that realm.
I’m not sure if what I write makes sense but I’m dead certain that this revelation is meant for someone. The person will experience the strange acts of God as there will be increases on all sides. The fellow shall be supernaturally favored – even from a strange land by unusual people. Here’s your strong reason, you can’t labor and not be favored.
However, the fellow must labor in praise. The kind of labor that brings no sweat but sweet.
In my first post of the year, I shared my personal experience of how I was rescued from hunger into prosperity by engaging the mystery of praise. The follow intriguing biblical scenes will also inspire you:
- The wall of Jericho came down flat at the instance of praise. Wall of Jericho represents barriers and obstacles against one progress. Joshua 6:1-21
- Paul and Silas brought down the presence of God on the night that precede their execution and they were rescued. Acts 16:25-27
- God took over the battle of Israel (and still does) by praise and the enemies killed themselves. 2 Chronicles 20:22-25
In Psalm 92:1-2,
“It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High. To shew forth thy loving kindness in the morning and thy faithfulness every night.”
Vs 10,
“But my horn shalt thou exalt like the horn of an unicorn: I shall be anointed with fresh oil.”
The above scripture buttresses the fact that a labour of praise engenders great benefits. “Fresh oil” here means fresh revelation. And great destinies ride on the wings of fresh insights. That is, observing the culture of praise and thanksgiving as a lifestyle grants you access to a daily and fresh revelation which is also a pre-requisite for great manifestations.
Without revelation, don’t expect the manifestation of great and mighty things. If you’re the type that praise God only on Sundays, perhaps, you’ll get fresh oil only on Sundays but for the remaining days of the week you’ll be running on staled oil. If you don’t change the oil in your car engine daily, it’ll go stale, and the engine will break down. Praise is the oil that your life’s engine needs to keep moving the vehicle of your life. If you don’t want to break down in life, you buy into this idea of praise labour as a lifestyle.
