PRAISES AND THANKSGIVING (2)




“Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all ye lands. Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence with singing. Know ye that the LORD he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations” Psalm 100:1-5

God deserves all the praise and this, not just for Him but for your own sake. If you don’t keep the One who is keeping you alive as it were then you are gunning for the grave. Life I’d always said is key to living. In one of the meetings I anchored recently, I said to my audience that as long as you keep complaining about that one-room apartment, the flat, duplex or your own facility wouldn’t surface.

HOW TO GIVE THANKS AND PRAISE TO GOD
-Go into His presence with thanksgiving and praises
-Make a joyful noise unto the Lord
-Sing unto Him
-Serve Him with gladness
-Praise Him with instrument of music and dance
-Praise Him for who He is and particularly who He is to you
-Praise and give Him thanks always and in everything, Psl 150, 1Thes 5:18

WHAT TO THANK AND PRAISE GOD FOR
Yes you might be asking, for what should I praise and thank God? That’s simple! We should give thanks and praises to God, for everything for this His will in Christ for us, 1Thes 5:18. Thank and praise Him:

A. For His goodness and His mercies- redemption and deliverance from the hands of the enemy; healings and deliverance through His word, Psl 107:1-3, 20; keeping you from birth, watching over you and your family.

B. When all efforts fail in hopeless  situation; period of inadequacy; in lack, thank Him and praise Him for previous Provision and the little you have, John 11:41, Matt 14:19-21.

Conclusively, the principles of Praise and Thanksgiving are universal in application.  It works both in the circular world and in the body of Christ and I’ll like you to take advantage of these principles. God deserves your thanks and praises. He expects both. Moreover, thanks and praises are capable of delivering miracles to you. I believe beyond all reasonable doubt that I have been able to afflict you with this enthusiasm praising and thanking God for you own uttermost benefit. Congratulations and God bless you.
