Praise In the Presence of GodSample
Feed on Living Bread
There is no weariness like the soul-weariness the psalmist speaks of here. Quick surges of faith may occur in an inspirational moment, but how do you sustain faith during prolonged sickness, continued temptation, or seemingly unending relational struggles?
Feed on living bread. Jesus said, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God” (Matt. 4:4). When you come to the end of yet another day that has drained your physical, emotional, and spiritual strength, sit down and read the Word of God. If you can’t stay awake, stand up and read it aloud.
You may not remember brilliant flashes of insight, but your soul is being fed by the Holy Spirit.

About this Plan
Pastor Jack Hayford points the way to the life-changing pathway of praise. No matter how you feel, praise will shape what your experiences will become. When doubts come, praise God that His Word will never fail you. When fears taunt, praise God that His presence never leaves you. When questions arise, praise God that His wisdom holds every answer. Praise leads you to the One who assures peace beyond strife, hope beyond trial, joy beyond sorrow, and life beyond all.
