THE POWER OF PRAISE

Tuesday April 27, 2010
Isaiah 30:29-32
Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a flute to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the Mighty ONE of Israel. And the LORD shall cause His glorious voice to be heard, and shall show the lightning down of His arm, with indignation of His anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones. For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrians be beaten down, who smote with a rod. And every place where the grounded staff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, it shall be with timbrels and harps; and in battles of shaking will He fight with it.

The Power of Praise for the Living GOD brings His might and strength into the situations which we face in our life. GOD fights for us and defeats the enemy with might and strength. When we sing to the LORD; when we shout HIS praises; when we play to HIM with the musical instruments of joy and gladness; when high praise issues forth from our mouth at all times; then He will fight for us.
The first verse of this passage speaks about a song sung in the night season, when it is still and we are in deep prayer, going up to the Mountain of the LORD, to the Mighty ONE. This type of prayer and praise issues forth from the depth of the heart. It is the powerful praise of prayer within the deep places of the heart. Our heart touches the Heart of GOD with a song and the melody of instruments. We make melody in our heart unto the LORD.
The LORD hears our praise; He sees the enemy around us, stalking us and making plans for our destruction. Then GOD goes to war for us in His anger, with fire, lightning, hailstones, tempest and He will scatter the enemy and devour them and their plans.
PRAISE YE THE LORD, PRAISE GOD WITH HIGHEST PRAISE!
HE IS THE LORD, GOD ALMIGHTY.
PRAISE YE THE LORD!
