AWESOMENESS OF PRAISE (4):  YAHWEH’S MANIFEST PRESENCE

It came even to pass, as the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the Lord; and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of musick, and praised the Lord, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the Lord;
II Chronicles 5:13 (KJV)

Praise is the vehicle that conveys anyone into Yahweh’s presence.  Yahweh inhabits the praise of His people (see Psalms 22:3).  Whenever anyone wants to experience God’s presence, all that is required is to enter with thanksgiving and go on with singing praises to the Lord from the heart, then His presence is provoked.  When Yahweh arrives what happens?

    1. Everything holding you quakes out.  There is earthquake when Yahweh arrives at the scene.  Paul and Silas were thrown into the prison for preaching the gospel but at midnight, they praised Yahweh.  As Yahweh visited the prison to inhabit their praise, there was great earthquake so that the foundation of the prison was shaken (see Acts 16:25-26).  Praise builds a house for the presence of the Lord and when He arrives, whatever is harassing your life must be shaken out by fire.  That is the wonder of praise.  It has the capacity to bring Yahweh on the scene who in turn sets you free from every harassment of the enemy.

AWESOMENESS OF PRAISE (3): A HURT-FREE ZONE OF LIFE

AWESOMENESS OF PRAISE (3): A HURT-FREE ZONE OF LIFE

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
Psalms 16:11 (KJV)

II Peter 3:13 (KJV) says, ‘And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?’ It is a good thing to give thanks unto the Lord (see Psalms 92:1) and when you align yourself with that which is good, you enter into a hurt-free zone of life. You become unharmable, untouchable, unmolestible, unconquerable, indomitable and unsubduable. Praise is a good thing. Praise is comely (see Psalms 33:1). Why does praise secure and usher one into a hurt-free zone of life? Firstly, II Peter 3:13 answers that. Praise is a good thing and no one can harm you if you are a follower and doer of that which is good. Embedded in that which is good is security that covers every practitioner. Secondly, praise is the habitat of Yahweh. Divine presence is realised in praise and when Yahweh comes down, nothing that hurts can remain around. The presence of Yahweh has the mountains skipping like rams and the hills like lambs. The earth literally trembles at the presence of the God of Jacob (see Psalms 114:7). Can you imagine what opposition against your life and destiny that can stand that majestic presence of Yahweh? Can you imagine whatever brings hurt and pain that can stand before the presence of Yahweh? That presence turns the rock into a standing water. That is no matter how hard your situation seems to be, at the presence of Yahweh, there is a supernatural intervention turning obstacles into testimonies.

PRAISE IS YOUR PURPOSE

PRAISE IS YOUR PURPOSE

This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.
Isaiah 43:21 (KJV)

Purpose is the original intention for the creation of a thing. For everything created there was a purpose behind the manufacturer’s mind for the making of that thing. Man is the creation of Yahweh and He didn’t leave us ignorant of the purpose for Him making man. Dr Myles says that if purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable. The reason there is so much abuse of purpose in the human race is because for most part, most people don’t even know the purpose for which they are alive. They were born into a routine of being born, going to school, getting a job or starting an enterprise, getting married and giving birth to children, growing old and dying. Most people go through this routine and for them, that is life. No wonder, there is so much bustle in the rat race. Everyone wants to beat everyone else. For the majority, there is no consciousness of purpose at all. Consequently, what you don’t know you can’t pursue. The good news is that man has a purpose for his making and it can be discovered. There is the general purpose of man and there is the specific purpose of man. The specific purpose gives the individual the specific ways to fulfil the general purpose. By all means the general purpose is the life assignment of man and that is to show forth the praises of the Yahweh; to bring Yahweh praise and glory. Whatever man is doing that does not fulfil this purpose is a wasted life and securing an eternity in agony and anguish. Though praising Yahweh is our purpose, it is only the living that can praise the Lord (see Isaiah 38:19). Ephesians 2:1 says that we were dead in trespasses and sins. Apostle Paul says that the law came and sin revived in him, thereby killing him (see Romans 7:9). Sin kills and Romans 3:23 says that all have sinned and come short of the glory of Yahweh. Therefore, everyone born of a woman was born in sin, consequently, spiritually dead. That implies that you cannot praise Yahweh until you are alive and living.

PRAISE DEFINED (3)

O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our maker.
Psalms 95:6 (KJV)

We shall be concluding our discuss on the seven Hebrew words that define praise. We have seen Towdah, Yadah, Halal, Shabach and Zamar in the preceding days. Let’s continue with the sixth.

6. Barak (Strong’s, H1288; Vine’s, “To Bless”), the sixth dimension of praise, is a primitive root meaning, “to kneel, to bless Yahweh as an act of adoration, to salute.” (Psalms 95:6). This is often the response of the human spirit to the presence of Yahweh during praise and worship. While barak is often translated to “bless,” particularly in the King James Version (see Genesis 9:26; Deuteronomy 1:11; Jer

Whatever your situation is today, there is hope for you because you are still alive “for a living dog is better than a dead lion.” (see Ecclesiastes 9:4).

PILLARS OF PROSPERITY (3): TALKING

PILLARS OF PROSPERITY (3): TALKING

For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea? and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass? he shall have whatsoever he saith.
Mark 11:23 (KJV)

This is the law of faith, “you shall have whatsoever you say”. Your mouth is the channel through which you sign your spiritual check for withdrawal. Whatsoever you sign is delivered to you both positive and negative. If you look into your life now, your outcome is a product of your words. This is an inevitable law. In Numbers chapter 13, we read of the spies that went to spy Canaan. When they returned, ten of them said, “… We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.” (Numbers 13:31). And truly, all that generation that said that they be not able to enter the promised land, ended their journey in the wilderness. According to their words, they were not able to enter into that land. In Numbers 14:28 Yahweh told Moses “Say unto them, As truly as I live, saith the Lord, as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you:” Whatever you say, whether positive or negative becomes your portion, it is only a matter of time. Caleb and Joshua said “And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.” (Numbers 13:30). The two were the only ones that entered into Canaan from that older generation. Your talking is your life. Your life flows in the direction of the your confession.

PILLARS OF PROSPERITY (1): COVENANT GIVING (A)

PILLARS OF PROSPERITY (1): COVENANT GIVING (A)

Give, and it shall be given unto you? good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
Luke 6:38 (KJV)

Covenant giving is the highway of abundance in this Kingdom. The law of seed-time and harvest is also called the law of giving. Giving is like sowing seeds into the ground. The ground you are sowing the seed matters a lot to the harvest that you can expect. That is why it is not every giving that produces harvest. It is only covenant giving that produces bountiful harvest. Covenant giving is that giving that is in line with the Word. Covenant giving is that giving that is commanded by the Word. When you give according to the Word, then you are assured of a bountiful returns. Covenant giving starts with the tithe. The tithe is ten percent of the increase of Yahweh upon your life and business/career. 10% of $100 is $10. That is how simple it is. Tithe is a debt you are owing Yahweh that is why if you refuse to pay, it is regarded as robbery (see Malachi 3:8-12). When you pay your tithe, you provoke the heavens opened over you and your finances and indeed everything that concerns you. When you don’t pay your tithe, you incurred the curse of the Lord released upon the thief (see Zechariah 5:1-4). You also close the heaven over you and expose yourself to the devourer. It is better imagined than experienced. If you are in this Kingdom of HaMashiach and you are not faithful in tithing, you are doing yourself a great disservice. In the new testament, it is our high priest Yahushua that receives the tithe (see Hebrews 7:8).

FOUNDATION FOR PROSPERITY (4): ADDICTION

FOUNDATION FOR PROSPERITY (4): ADDICTION

But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness? and all these things shall be added unto you.
Matthew 6:33 (KJV)

There is another level we are going to be discussing today. It is called addiction. This is the point of encounter with Yahweh-Jireh. Psalms 122:6 says, “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.” Who shall prosper? The above scripture says, “they shall prosper that love thee”, not “that love to prosper.” Those that shall prosper are those that love the peace of Jerusalem (Yahweh’s kingdom), that want to see it advancing, progressing and established. That’s addiction! Verse 9 says, “Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek thy good.” That’s not a trade by barter life, but a life utterly dedicated and committed to the good of the house of Yahweh. David was simply addicted! There is what to seek first, so that you won’t have any need to seek any other thing, as they would cheaply be added unto you! I don’t know where your heart is, but I must tell you that where your heart is determines where Yahweh places you. Seek ye first the kingdom of Yahweh… That is, you’re moved by every kingdom issue; not just to be seen, but because that’s where your heart is. Many are in the kingdom for what they can get, so they always get disappointed. Many there are that are only moved by their own things, so their own things never work. But when the kingdom of Elohim moves you as your own thing would, you’re on your way to the topmost top in life. David can testify to this (1 Chronicles 29:2-5).

FOUNDATION FOR PROSPERITY (3): AFFECTION

FOUNDATION FOR PROSPERITY (3): AFFECTION

Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation.
Habakkuk 3:18 (KJV)

Deuteronomy 28:47-48 says “47 Because thou servedst not the Lord thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things; 48 Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.” Today, we want to consider the foundation for prosperity called affection. I define affection as delightsome commitment—getting involved with excitement. There is this prophetic parable in Jeremiah 23:36-39, “36 And the burden of the Lord shall ye mention no more: for every man’s word shall be his burden; for ye have perverted the words of the living God, of the Lord of hosts our God. 37 Thus shalt thou say to the prophet, What hath the Lord answered thee? and, What hath the Lord spoken? 38 But since ye say, The burden of the Lord; therefore thus saith the Lord; Because ye say this word, The burden of the Lord, and I have sent unto you, saying, Ye shall not say, The burden of the Lord; 39 Therefore, behold, I, even I, will utterly forget you, and I will forsake you, and the city that I gave you and your fathers, and cast you out of my presence:” So you have to be delighted in Yahweh, you have to be excited! Yahweh loves a cheerful giver. That is, Yahweh doesn’t love just the giver, but the one that gives cheerfully. Giving therefore without being cheerful is wasting your seed. It has no future. When you do it as a burden and not as a delight, you end up in shame and reproach. When you don’t obey Yahweh with delight, it’s a curse.
