Just recently, God instructed me to praise Him for
things I have been praying for. He said, "No longer pray for these
petitions as if it has not happened, but begin to praise as if it has already
happened!"
For a stronger confirmation, I opened my Bible and my eyes fell on Acts
16:25-26 and I knew God was speaking to me once again.
Praise Him in the valleys. The scriptures speak of Paul and Silas who were put
into jail for merely performing the great works of God. The act of being placed
in jail represents the trials and tribulations we too face today. The key
behind the scriptures informs us Paul and Silas did not view their current
situation as hopeless, but they praised God for what He was going to do. They
praised God with such an awesome power that all the prisoners throughout the
jail heard their praise.
Suddenly! The scripture tells us suddenly, there was a great earthquake, the
prison began to shake and all the doors opened and each prisoner's band loosen.
The word suddenly is defined as something happening quickly. If you want to see
God make big changes in your life, begin to praise Him big and immediately God
will begin to work on your behalf!
Start now to praise God in advance. And suddenly, you will see your mountains
being leveled and your crooked places made straight!
Reflection: I challenge you to begin to praise God for prayers you expect to
come to pass! And suddenly, you will see God do a big thing in your life.
