MEDITATE ON THE WORD OF THE LORD DAY AND NIGHT

(Psalm 1)
How blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked,
Nor stand in the path of sinners,
Nor sit in the seat of scoffers!
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
And in His law he meditates day and night.
3 He will be like a tree firmly planted by streams of water,
Which yields its fruit in its season
And its leaf does not wither;
And in whatever he does, he prospers.
4 The wicked are not so,
But they are like chaff which the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the wicked will perish.
We believe that praise is a life giving root to us. I believe that we are purposed to praise. It is what we are created to do. I know you expect to hear that praise is important when you attend a church.
There are some people want their worship the Burger King Way! , to have it your way. They want to go to church, make a very small deposit in the plate, mumble a few words to a couple songs, and expect everything else to be automatically taken care of. But, there is no such thing as automated worship. Worship requires something very personal; it requires a desire to have a personal relationship with the Lord; the worship of our Lord requires a devotion to Him before it can be considered worship.
Your confidence will grow as you soar higher and higher. God will take something that Satan meant for destruction and turn it around for our blessing. Talk about mocking the enemy, God gets glorified, and we walk in victory over the adversary. Know this as well, God is seeking those to worship Him in spirit and in truth. This is His desire from us. He is actively seeking worshipers. Will He find them? He’s looking, will you be one of the ones He finds?

Begin to meditate on the goodness of God until it becomes such a reality in your life that the circumstances seem no more than a mild nuisance. Then you too can praise God your deliverer with the full assurance that He will see you through no matter what the circumstances.
