The Mystery of Praise According to Psalm 8:2.

"Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have ordained strength, Because of Your enemies, That You may silence the enemy and the avenger." (Psalms 8:2 NKJV)


1. When you praise God, remember what the bible says   From the NIV bible translation, we learnt that In the book of ... Exodus 23:22 KJV [22] But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies.

2. From the NLT bible translation, we understood that..... Revelation 12:11 KJV [11] And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. ..... Children tend to find it easiest to praise and sing unto the lord than to pray.

3. From the ESV translation of the bible, we know see  Thoughts from the book of Psalm 22:3 KJV [3] But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.

4. From the NASB Bible translation we were reminded that praises to God, will help put and end to the works of our enemies and the revengeful in our lives. Exodus 23:22 KJV [22] But if thou shalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I speak; then I will be an adversary unto thine adversaries.

5. From the HCSB bible we were told that as we praise God, all the good things about our lives will receive LIFE while every order contrary things of our lives will be killed .. Proverbs 18:21 KJV [21] Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.

6. From the NET translation, we know that our praises to God silences the devil who is the accuser of the brethren. Revelation 12:10-12 KJV [10] And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. [11] And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death. [12] Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

7. From the ABPE translation, we learnt that praise to the Lord is potent and active in your life irrespective of your age or age group.

8. From the GW translation, we understand that, Our praises locks in our enemies and silences them all.


9. From the DRB translation, we can see that, when praise is perfected in your lips, it is then it will destroy your enemy and your avenger.


10. From the YLT we can perfectly understand that Praise is the foundation of the strength that stills your enemy and your self-avenger.

1. God Bless you as you act in this Revealed will of God as you take the way you Praise, thank, and worship God to another level. Shalom!

SPEND TIME PRAISING GOD

Psalm 100: 1-5, Psalm 150: 1-6, Psalm 149 5-6, Psalm 103 1-2,

No book in the Bible exemplifies the spirit of praise and worship more than the book of Psalms. It records more verses of praise than any other book of the Bible. Obviously, God wants the praises of his people.

God tells us to give him thanks in everything (1Thess 5:18) even when things press against our souls. We may never understand what is happening; we may never understand. But God’s will in each circumstance is that we praise and thank him.

But why? Its because praise is the dearest   and most direct means by which you declare your dependence on God. It repeats your trust in him in the midst of darkness.

It confess your allegiance and devotion to the one who was crucified for you and to whom you are eternity joined.

What is praise?

Praise means to express a favourable judgement of, to commend to glorify, to worship, to value, to express appreciation to shower encomium.

Psalm 100:2: if the lord’s presence makes us joyful, then so should serving him make us happy. Only when one takes no pleasure in God does serving him seem like a chore and a burden.

Psalm 100:3: God is the Shepherd, we are his flock. God is the creator we are his creations. God is the father we are his children.

When we remember these basic truths life goes a lot smoother for everyone.

Psalm 100:4: God alone is worthy of being worshipped. What is our attitude toward worship. Do you willingly and joyfully come into God’s presence.

Eph. 5:19, Colo.3:16

Considering all that God has done and does for us, what could be more natural than outbursts of heartfelt praise.

Some Benefits we derive from Praising the Lord

1. Praise magnifies God, praise puts our focus on God not on our problems. God’s power, presence and  ability transform our thinking.

2. Praise humbles us:- When we worship God we gain a right view of ourselves Praise deflates excess   pride and ego. We gain a healthy self image based on God’s view of us.

3.  Praise reveals our devotion to God, if we love Christ, we will praise him.

4. Praise motivates us to holy living:- it opens our hearts to want to live the way God desires. The more    we worship him, the more like him we become.

5.  Praise increases our joy:- Joy is the constant companion of praise. If we feel depressed or discourage     praising God will soon bring us joy i.e unspeakable.

6.  Praise establish our faith, the greater we see our God, the smaller we see our problems
7. Praise elevates our emotions:- Worry, fear and doubt cannot survive for long in an atmosphere of     praise.

In the final analysis, Praise is very important. Praise God everywhere and every way whether its convenient or not, even when you feel prone to give up praise him let everything that has breath praise the Lord.
