Topic: THERE IS POWER IN PRAISE (3)
Scripture:
PSALMS 100:4
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.
In the place of intense praise and worship, God washes you.
Proverbs 27:21 says, “AS THE FINING POT FOR SILVER, AND THE FURNACE FOR GOLD; SO IS A MAN TO HIS PRAISE.” In the place of worship your spirit is heated this is when your thoughts, Desires and Attitudes rise to the surface. As you are broken and heated in the presence of the Lord, those negative attitudes rise to the surface of your heart. You are then able to bring them to Jesus to be forgiven and cleansed.
When you make a quality decision to fix your eyes on Jesus, and daily give Him Praise, no matter what is staring you in the face, you will begin to see the struggles lose their grip over you. There is power in your acknowledgement that God is worthy of your worship and praise. You press close to God in the place of worship; your heart will become more in tune with God.
In the place of praise and in the place of worship, the likeness of God is made more manifest in you. You begin to acquire the likeness and the image of God. You begin to look like him and think like him and speak like him as more and more of his presence overwhelmed your soul. The Place of worship is where we begin to acquire more of Gods Image , it is a place of brokenness and alligness to Gods will.
PRAYER
Lord thank you for the cleansing and transforming power in your presence, you are worthy to be praised, therefore be exalted and glorified in me Jesus name.
