Praise is a Moving Force

I had a dream not to long ago, which I believe was from God. A worship leader was teaching a class on Praise and worship. He had flowers to explain how praise and worship works. He passed around one flower that was full of different colors, and he said this flower is loud, it speaks out in colors. After that he passed around a soft flower that was pleasant to touch. This is one way we praise God, we speak out loud of His goodness. We can also praise God softly by meditating on the good things He has done and give thanks.

Praise is a sound, and sound is a force. I was watching this show that test to see if some of the things that's said is true. For example they wanted to know if someone sings in a very high key, would it break glass. They found out it was possible; they placed the glass in front of a very large speaker and amplified the sound and the glass did break. This is why I say sound is a force. The sounds that are coming out of your mouth are a moving force whether negative or positive.

Why is it when God created earth and everything in it, He spoke things into existence? Why didn't He wave his hand or just think about it? God said something, and things happened. What are you saying?

Mark 11:23-25 says, truly I tell you, whoever says to this mountain, be lifted up and cast into the sea! And does not doubt in his heart, but believes what he sayswill take place; it will be done for him. For this reason I say, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe and put full confidence that it is granted to you, and you will have it.

If we speak negatively we will create a negative atmosphere. That negative cloud will follow us wherever we go. We say what we believe and we have what we believe. So if you have things you don't want in your life that means you need to start speaking something different. In the 15th chapter of Matthew in the New Testament the scribes and Pharisees saw Jesus' disciples eating bread without washing their hands and they approached Jesus saying, “Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? For they wash not their hands when they eat” and Jesus responded by saying, “It's not what goes into the mouth that defiles a man, but that which comes out of the mouth, this defiles a man."

Is it scripture to praise God in advance? Yes if it's the right way. Let me explain, Praise is normally given after something good has been done. For example if you have a little one (a child) if they go in and clean their room without you asking, you would praise them for that, “Good job, I'm so proud of you.” You would call up your friends and tell them what a good job your little one did without you asking or begging. On the other hand, let's say your little one cleans their room all the time without being told, when you call your friend this time your praise would be; I'm so proud of my little one, because he always clean his room without me asking.

This is how we can praise God in advance; we praise Him according to His track record. For example, Lord you're so good whenever a problem rise in my life you're always there caring for me, you did it in the past and I know you'll do it now and for this I thank you.

God is not bound by time, there is no before and after with God. There's a constant Now for God. He sees your problems and your deliverance at the same time. So praise him for it. Say something. Praise opens the door of victory and silence the enemy.

I am blessed, because God says I am blessed.

I will reflect the radiance of Christ, because this day His glory has shone upon me.

I am His friend and He's my friend, because He called me friend.
