Psalms 22:3(KJV) “God inhabits the praises of His people, Israel”
Praise – “Todah” – The “sacrifice of praise” – raising of hands; surrender
Root – “Yadah” – to give THANKS
Covenant – an agreement, oath, or pledge of loyalty
Psalms 50:5 – “Gather My saints together to Me; those who have made a covenant with Me by SACRIFICE.”
We vow to do His will; 1 Thessalonians 5:16
Exodus 20:12 – Honor your parents – they are foundational to your IDENTITY
To reject them and remain angry at them is to reject and be angry at yourself.
Self-rejection – leads to sickness, dissolution, and death – physical, emotional, and spiritual
If we allow ourselves to be preoccupied with COMPLAINTS instead of thanksgiving we will never be healed.
A soul in breech and unhealed is vulnerable to be infected by EVIL
Psalms 50:15 God’s part of the agreement: “Call on Me in the day of trouble, and I will DELIVER you”.
Psalms 50:2
He will shine to and through you in – “The perfection of beauty” – Truth – Transparency – Purity and holiness
Deliverance from spiritual oppression – present and future.
He will demonstrate, tangibly, His SALVATION – Physical, emotional, and spiritual healing of our souls.
Psalms 22:3(NKJV) – he isenthroned in our praises.
Enthroned – “Indicates that whenever God’s people exalt His name, He is ready to manifest His kingdom’s power in the way most appropriate to the situation.” –Jack Hayford
Praise, in the form of Thanksgiving, prepares a specific and present place for God to dwell.
Thanksgiving forms an entry point for His kingdom to “come” and His will to be done in your life.
Alignment to God’s kingdom TRUTH – not manipulation.
His, is the POWER – Ours is the privilege and responsibility to welcome Him into our private, present, and circumstantial world.
