TOPIC: Preservation Power of Praise
SCRIPTURE: Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Psalm 32:7
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Those who praise God dwell in His Presence, and His Presence is a preservative of life.
It is clear from our anchor Scripture that praising God carries preservation power. No wonder, the Psalmist said in Psalms 32:7, Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.
And what does He use to preserve me? “…thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.”
So, praise and worship carry preservation and deliverance power.
Now, how does praise preserve?
1. Praise is key to health, and health is key to preservation.
Unhealthy people can be cut short before their time. Proverbs 17:22 says, A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.
So, merriment, which is a major element of praise, carries healing power. An excited person will be healthier than a depressed person any day.
2. Praise is key to strength, and strength helps to withstand adversity.
Nehemiah 8:10 says, …The joy of the Lord is your strength.
Strength helps to withstand adversity. So, your praise enhances your health and strength. Praiseful people are strengthened people; they are not weak people.
3. Praise is key to God’s Presence, and God’s Presence is a preservative of life.
Psalm 22:3 says, But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
Those who praise God dwell in His presence, and His Presence is a preservative of life. God lives in praise, and anywhere God lives, there is preservation.
4. Praise activates the covenant of longevity.
The praiser is a beneficiary of the covenant of longevity.
Isaiah 43:21 says, This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
So, when you know how to praise and worship God, you are positioning yourself in the covenant of longevity. I am not talking about whether you know how to sing, because there are singers who are not worshippers; there are instrumentalists who know nothing about worship or the praise of God. I am talking about the man or the woman who is a true worshipper of the living God.
Psalm 150:6 says, Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD. By extension, it is also true to say, “Let everything that praises the Lord have breath.”
For example, when Hezekiah needed to prolong his life, he engaged the covenant of longevity through praise (2Kings 20:1-6).
Beloved, your breath is for the purpose of praise, and your praise will guarantee your breath.
REMEMBER THIS: Those who praise God dwell in His presence, and His Presence is a preservative of life.
ASSIGNMENT(S):
1. Make praise and worship a daily lifestyle
2. Refuse the attitude of murmuring, complaining, and depression.
3. Engage in joyful praise to activate strength, health, and longevity.
PRAYER: Father, thank You for the privilege of praise to You. I receive the grace to live a life of praise, strength, and longevity, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
