Praise Puts Flesh to Our Faith! Praise fixed firmly upon faith opens the door for God to work for us, in us, and through us. It allows Him to handle all the things in Our life that we cannot. This was certainly true for one leper whom Jesus healed. The Gospel of Luke tells us than ten lepers begged Jesus for mercy, but only one returned to thank Him (Luke 17:17-19). Praise also followed the faith of the blind beggar who told Jesus that he wanted to see (Luke 18:35-43). So, whay are we waiting for? We need to praise God in the midst of our problems, and we need to do it now. Our praise is what attacks God to us. It is what gets us into His presence. ☆ Praise Him because we believe in Him and want to please Him. ☆Praise Him because we want to honor and obey Him. ☆Praise Him because we know we cannot live apart from Him. ☆Praise Him because we need Him every hour of every day to be truly human. ☆Praise Him because there are circumstances, events, and relationships in our life that we dont know how to handle. ☆Praise Him because He has made promises to us that have yet to be fulfilled. ☆Praise Him because we are certain He will be faithful to fulfill all He has spoken to us. ☆Praise Him because theres power in praise and we want to tap every bit of that power. ☆Praise for because His ultimate goal is that we will bask in His presence and eat at His table forevermore (Psalms 23). Finally, if these arent enough reasons why we should praise our God, praise Him simply because His presence is more important to us than anything and everything thats keeping us from PRAISING Him. Because Praise is our God-given privilege and responsibility.
