Praise and Worship Ministry--Thanksgiving

Anthing the good news dictates is foolishnes to those are lost, but to us, the doing of it releases the Power of God. Thanksgiving--Pslam 92:1

Enter his gates with thanksgiving be thankful unto Him, and bless his name Psalm 100:4

Thanksgiving is an attitude of appreciation and gratitude to God for something received from Him or for what He has done.  By Heaven's protocol, thanksgiving precedes praaise. ONly a thankful heart can be praiseful. Thanksgiving is one of the major secrets of life. It is the cheapest way to live. It makes the devil crazy. Thanksgiving adds colour to your christian experience and flavour to your christian natures, as everything around you begins to respond positively. The enemy will then be forced to respect and honour you. Thanksgiviing is not an outward show. It must first bhave its root inside of you, before it can bear fruit outward. If you want God to give you any attention when you pray. Be relaxed, but how can you be relaxed except you are satisfied. Be satisfied with HIm and show Him by thanking Him for all He has been to you.

The Power of Praise

Let the people Praise thee, O God, but all the people Praise thee Psalm 67:3. 

Praise is cardinal to the believer because it is his cheapest access to the most High God. It is also one of this surest access to the realm of the miraculous. Praise is also a preservative of the blessing of God. Blessings may come without it. But it takes praise to preseserve the blessings. It is to one's blesssings what salt is to meat. It keeps it from decaying. Psalm 67:3-7

Turn you to the stronghold, ye prisoners of hope. Even today do I declare that I will render double unto thee. Zechariah 9:12. Praise is one of our strongholds in redemption. Sing praises to God, sing praise: Sing praises unto our king, sing praises. For God is the king of all the earth. Sing ye Praise with understanding. Psalm 47:6-7

Worship Psalm 111:1, John 4:23-24

The results and benefits of worship to God. Worship bring the presence of the Lord. Worship bring the power of God. Worsip brings victory. Worship brings the flow of the Holy Spirit. Worshi brings teh song of the Lord.

The new testament expression of worship is that of spirit and truth. Your relationship with God is based on the giving of your heart, not just doing all the right things. God wants worshippers, not just worship. God wants musicians, not just music. God wants singers, not just  songs.
