THE LIFESTYLE OF PRAISE

Let my mouth be filled with Your Praise and with Your honour all the day – Psalm 71:8 (NKJV)

Praise is central to the Kingdom Life – the Overcoming Life. You can experience a lifestyle of perpetual praise of God regardless of your circumstances, because praise keeps your attention focused on God. You can attain to heights of faith and victory as you mature in the Lifestyle of Praise, driven by an attitude of gratitude. The habit of this lifestyle is to declare continually, “Father, I thank you”! “In everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” (1The.5:18).

To stay in praise is to abide in God as your Sanctuary, to dwell in the secret place of the Most High. Those who praise God operate above pressures, as praise guarantees God’s presence. Praise cancels pressures and ushers you into eternal pleasures. In His presence is fullness of Joy, and at His right hand are permanent pleasures (Psa.16:11b). As you commit to a Lifestyle of Praise, you will become a Wonder unto many; and God will increase your greatness and comfort you on every side (Psa.71:7, 21).

Ask God to teach and show you how to stay in praise. Begin to thank God for whatever used to make you question Him in the past. Rather than writing endless lists of prayer requests, simply give God praise and see Him manifest and shine forth. Praise works anywhere, anytime, and anyday! As you begin to live a lifestyle of praise, the dignity and honour that God has packaged for your destiny will begin to bloom, blossom, and manifest for His Glory.

It is time to programme yourself for a lifestyle of thanksgiving, praise, and worship to God from the depth of your heart. Discard the cloak of heaviness. Put on your garment of praise. Welcome to the realm of praise. Welcome to the world of wonders!! Rise up in praise and begin to celebrate your eternal life in Christ!
