One of the instruments of daily victory is praise and worship

Hello Friends, I am glad to inform you today that God has make a provision for us to overcome in life. One of the instruments of daily victory is praise and worship and we will be talking about that today. My question to you today is this: Are you experiencing the victory of praise in your life. Have considered the power and privileges available to you through praise? Let me show you few of these privileges from the word of God. Praise is an instrument of warfare (2 Chronicle 20)In the story in this book, we read about how a great army of aggressors came against King Jehoshaphat and his people.
“It came to pass after this also, that the children of Moab, and the children of Ammon, and with them other beside the Ammonites, came against Jehoshaphat to battle”
Jeshoshaphat has no idea how to handle this great company, so his first reaction was fear. However, he quickly turned unto God:
“And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the LORD, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah” (2 Chronicle 20: 3).
Jeshoshaphat confessed his trust in the Lord
“O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee”. (2 Chronicle 20: 12).
Are you faced with some giants in your life right now? Are you afraid because some sudden situations has surfaced in your life that you have no idea how to tackle? Well, I have good news for you today: Follow the example of King Jehoshaphat and turn to the Lord. Confess your trust in Him, praise Him and harness the power imbedded in praise and it will surprise you what the Lord will do.Praise was the strategy of victory King Johoshaphat used to overcome his enemies. Let’s read how it happened:
“And Jehoshaphat bowed his head with his face to the ground: and all Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem fell before the LORD, worshipping the LORD. 19And the Levites, of the children of the Kohathites, and of the children of the Korhites, stood up to praise the LORD God of Israel with a loud voice on high. 20And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the LORD your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper. 21And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the LORD, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the LORD; for his mercy endureth for ever. 22And when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten. 23For the children of Ammon and Moab stood up against the inhabitants of mount Seir, utterly to slay and destroy them: and when they had made an end of the inhabitants of Seir, every one helped to destroy another” (2 Chronicle 20: 16-23).
Praise is still a weapon of victory till now. When God say we should praise him, it is not because He is in need of praise. He only wants us to focus on him through our praise instead of focusing on our problems or meditating on the power our enemies.As you decide to live a lifestyle of praise the Lord from today on, invisible walls of opposition will crumble in your life. God will set ambushments against the enemies of your destiny and victories will not depart from your life in Jesus Name.Remember, praise is a weapon of war and Life is a battle as we know, so you will need to master the art of praise through daily practice.God bless you guide you into your victory this day! See you tomorrow! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • The Bible calls us to ALWAYS PRAY AND NOT LOSE HEART

    The whole world lies in wickedness and darkness, but, looking at the people that have made prayer their priority #1, you realize that – so to speak – they are from another planet; they do not live in darkness because they seem shining. They have problems and their life is not any different, but they approach their problems in a different way and they look forward into the future in a different way. Prayer so alters their lives and strengthens their relationships with God that they do not notice things that others do.
  • How to set grace free in our lives? II

    The law of sowing and reaping governs how favour works. It is necessary to look at favour as a seed that must be sown. Jesus said that, “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” (Matthew 5:7).In other words, Jesus is saying, “Blessed are those who have sown favour or mercy, because they will reap favour or mercy”.Generally, the level of favour operating in your life depends on the level of the seed of favour you sow into other people’s lives. This means that I cannot expect the harvest of favour in my life until I have not sown mercy into other people’s lives.

  • You won’t have a ministry if you don’t start using what you have now

    The topic of our devotion today is “Your gift will make room for you”.We have been talking about how all big things start small, whether it is a known person, great ministry, great accomplishments or great influence. It all starts when a person does what he can do and does it with all his might as unto the Lord with faith and consistency. When one has such attitude towards life he will have his or her reward from the Lord. Such a person will be blessed and exalted by God. His or her gift will make room for him or her in God’s overall picture and the Body of Christ.Person’s gift will make room for him and will bring him before great men, – this is on of the Bible principles; the Bible teaches about it and also it can be seen in the lives of the people in the Bible.
  • How accountability helps us to change and grow spiritually?

    Accountability is a sincere confession or opening of one’s secrets of his Christian walk to the others in the atmosphere of mutual trust. We are ready to give account of what we do with our lives, what we understand or do not understand, in what areas are weak or in need of assistance. When we are accountable we are willing to admit whether we are growing or not. We are able to give account of what we are learning in order to receive support, encouragement or correction.
  • The wisdom of repentance II

    David talks about the obvious advantages that are available to a person after he has confessed his sins.1. Supernatural freedom from guilt and condemnation.« I acknowledged my sin to You, and my iniquity I have not hidden. I said, „I will confess my transgression to the Lord,” and You forgave the iniquity of my sin» (Psalm 32:5). Right after we confess our sins God takes away from us the burden of guilt. When our own hearts condemn us, when we experience the guilt caused by our sins, it is extremely hard to boldly go before Godi n prayer. Feelings of guilt destroy our confidence. So, in order for us to get rid of the guilt we need to repent of our sins.
