LIVING A LIFE OF PRAISE It is vitally important to live in an attitude of Praise toward God. But what can you do if you are having difficulty maintaining a Life Filled with Praise? 1. Commit your life to Christ. First, be absolutely sure that you have placed your complete faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior of your life. The Bible says that "if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you shall be saved" (Romans. 10:9). The life of praise begins here, with the confession of your mouth that "Jesus is Lord." 2. Confess Sin and Repent. Sin, including Prideful Self-Reliance, separates us from God and from His love and protection. But we have the assurance of forgiveness if we come to Him in Repentance (I John 1:9). Confess any known Sin and ask God to Search your Heart. Then, receive His Forgiveness. 3. Praise God anyway! Despite your present feelings, it is important to offer Praise to God, what Hebrews 13:15 calls a “sacrifice of praise.” Despite our Feelings or Circumstances, God often asks us to take the first step, especially when He is trying to help us grow in our faith (James 1:2-4). 4. Join together with other believers. Sharing your struggles with another brother or sister in Christ is not only good idea (Ecc. 4:9-10), it is commanded (James 5:16). Uniting with other believers in Regular Worship is also a key to being able to Praise God (Heb. 10:24-25). Christ’s Church: “OFFERING A BETTER LIFE FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY”
