Day 9: Praise! (How Judah Won)
Another powerful weapon that God gives us for victory is PRAISE!
Praising God means that we tell Him how good He is and celebrate that. It means that we really focus our attention on who He is and make Him bigger and more important than anything else in our hearts and lives. One of the reasons this is powerful is because it reminds us of how big and amazing our God is. It stirs faith and joy in our hearts and makes us see whatever we’re facing differently in light of Him.
Praise is the sound that faith makes. When you really believe God, you can praise Him—no matter what you’re facing— because you trust that He is good! You can praise Him when things are good and praise Him when they seem bad because that’s what He deserves. You can praise Him when you feel like it and praise Him when you don’t because your faith is more powerful than your feelings! God loves your faith. He loves seeing it in your heart and coming out in your actions. Because of that, He loves to respond and move when you praise Him!
Praising God is like the ultimate invitation to Him. You might be facing a battle that you don’t know how to win but when you praise God, you invite Him to do what you can’t and He never loses! This is exactly what Judah did in our Bible reading for today. They didn’t know how to win the battle they were facing, but as they praised God, He brought about a miracle for them.
He will do it for you too!
