PRAISE AND WORSHIP ATTRACTS GOD AND HIS PRESENCE INTO YOUR LIFE AND SITUATION
PRAISE CONFIRMS YOUR BELIEF AND FAITH IN GOD
WHEN GOD SEES PRAISE, HE’S SEEING FAITH AND WHEN GOD SEES FAITH, HE’S MOVED INTO ACTION
EVERYTIME YOU’RE TOO DEPRESSED TO PRAISE GOD, THE CHALLENGE IS NOT JUST DEPRESSION, THERE’S DOUBT, UNBELIEF AND ANGER AGAINST GOD
WHEN YOU PRAISE GOD BECAUSE OF WHAT HE DID BEFORE OR WHAT HE’S CURRENTLY DOING, HE’S MOVED TO DO MORE
– Dr. Pastor Paul Enenche on “THE PROFIT OF FAITH Testimonies and Thanksgiving Service – First Service Glory Dome, Abuja. – Part D.
What is the place of praise in our Faith? Three things I’m going to say very quickly. What is the impact of Praise on Faith?
1. Praise attracts the presence of God into our lives and situations. Psalm 22:3.
By your praise and worship, you’re attracting God into your life and attracting His presence into your situation. When He’s around, He will not just watch you.
You remember when Jesus was invited to the wedding in Cana at Galilee, He was there when the wine finished and He wouldn’t just sit there and do nothing. You invite God into your life by your Praise.
2. Praise confirms your belief or Faith in God. Most people who doubt God can’t praise God. They are angry, bitter and are quarreling with God. Praise confirms your belief and Faith in God. Psalm 106:12.
Those who believe God sing praises, they dance praises and celebrate God. Praise confirms your belief and Faith in God and when God sees Faith, He’s moved to action. When God sees praise, He’s seeing Faith and when God sees Faith, He’s moved into action, anywhere. Hebrews 11:6. Acts 16:25.
Everytime you’re too depressed to praise God, the challenge is not just depression, there’s doubt, there’s unbelief and anger with God but praise confirms belief and Faith in God and anywhere God sees Faith, He moves into action.
3. Praise with thanksgiving for what God has done or is doing moves Him to do more. When you praise God because of what He did before or because of what He’s currently doing, He’s moved to do more. Psalm 50:23.
We were in a crusade ground one day, Dr. Mrs Enenche was there too with me and I was with an Evangelist, a healing minister, both of us were in the crusade ground.
I was ministering, they said a deaf person has heard. “What? He could hear and speak? Let’s celebrate God” and we kept on. After a while, the man said, “you’re wasting time with these celebrations. There are so many testimonies, if after all the testimonies, we will be singing like this, when would we finish today? I told him, I said, “this is how we know how to do it” he couldn’t understand it.
Powerful man oh, miracles, signs and wonders but for him, that praise interruption was too much interruption. Challenge is, the impact of that same person today is so minimal. I saw another one, might miracle will happen, he will just stand and nod his head, “yes, next one”.
That is, I am not surprised, these things should happen. That guy is alive today, no ministry, no crusade, I’m not sure there’s a Church. I’m talking of stadium jammed to capacity. Never you take God for granted.
If headache is healed, when was the last time you healed a headache.
This is the way we know how to praise and celebrate and dance for God, no devil can stop it. It’s better for anything, including the preaching to stop than for the celebration to stop because there’s no preaching service in Heaven, the only thing we would find there is the praise and the worship. All we do is in accordance with Psalm 29:2.
Worship Him with the clearness of your conscience, with the purity of your motive. Hallelujah!
