RELEASING WONDERS THROUGH PRAISE

TOPIC: RELEASING WONDERS THROUGH PRAISE

TEXT: Let them praise his name in the dance… (Psalms 149:3).

Praise is the trigger that releases the wonders of his name (Psalm 75:1). God is known through the bible as a man of war. But in most cases He never uses the conventional weapon to bring victory to His people. When we lift up His name, He beats down our foes.

One thing Satan hates most is when we praise God during the attacks he is trying so hard to impose. Nothing feels worse to a would-be attacker than a strategic plan foiled. You can almost picture it—the devil calculates what he is sure will rip the rug out from under you. Right when he is about to do his own version of the victory dance, you start dancing to God! You can almost hear him squeal, “What? How can you be dancing? You are supposed to be crying!” This is just about the biggest mockery in the halls of hell. Psalm 149:3 tell us to dance to the Lord, while verse 7 gives the results of it. It says, “to execute vengeance upon the heathen.” Now, we don’t wrestle against people—we wage warfare with evil spirits. Our dance executes revenge upon demons. Right when they expected victory, you got immediate revenge because they couldn’t get you down! The devil knows more than anyone that if he can get you down, your potential to get frustrated with God goes up exponentially. However, he also knows if you praise when it would be easy to feel down, then Jehovah God gets involved!

This is why we don’t just dance when things are going great. Dancing to the Lord liberates you, and Satan hates it. Go ahead; dance a little more today over those issues of your life and watch the devil lose a foothold over you! And you shall begin to see a new wave of God's wonder in your life.
