Power of Praise

2 Through the praise of children and infants
you have established a stronghold against your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.
Psalm 8:2

I will never forget the first time, as a young believer in Christ who was just discovering how to fall in love with Jesus in a very real and tangible way when I praised Him, out loud, not just saying the words but truly worshiping my God and Savior from my heart of hearts. I will never forget that day or the words of the worship song “I love you Lord” as in that moment all of the problems in my life that seemed insurmountable at times just seemed to disappear and become irrelevant in the midst of God’s amazing love and glory and power. There is truly power in praise that lifts your spirit to a different dimension where God’s healing and peace begin to work on the broken areas of your life in a way that you are restored and made new as a result of God’s amazing love and power that is available to all who would seek Him, love Him and accept His amazing gift of redemption in a genuine way. Today as you start your day, tell your Father in heaven how much you love Him, praise the Lord with all of your heart and ask Him for His guidance and direction today as you learn to love Him more.
