Life being full of calamities, worries, anxiety, catastrophe often tries to steal this act from us. In the book of Judges 3, Deborah knew that worshipping God is opening the heaven as right before the enemy was put in their hands. She raised her voice to worship.
We worship God for who he is, God created all men that we may worship him. Worshipping isn't just in lifting up our hands but rather in spirit and truth, one of which is Praise. Praise is an act of worship. Praising God gets us away from the storm and the noise of the world to the calm and still voice. Jesus never promised a world free of adversity but rather knowing that we are overcomers (John 16:33). Praising God raises the consciousness that we are never alone regardless of the waging sea.
Praising God helps us to keep our gaze on Christ (Hebrew 12:2) It is possible that we want to fix our gaze on what is not working, what looks stagnant at the moment but praising God reminds us that God is ever true to his word, heaven and Earth may pass away but not a drop of his words would be left unfulfilled ( Matthew 24:35).
Praising God brings us into a place of rest ( Matthew 11:28). God desires that all men enter into their place of rest. Praising God opens us to rest. It also unleashes the joy of the Lord right on our inside which cannot be explained by men.
The wall of Jericho fell with men rounding it with songs of praise ( Joshua 6:1-27).
HOW BIG IS THE WALL? PRAISE YOUR WAY TO VICTORY.
