NEW EXPERIENCES IN PRAISE 11-27-2020
I do believe the word ”perfected praise” is a saving word for us at this time. Praise from our innermost being. Do not underestimate the power and the purpose of praise. Satan seeks to deviate us from giving perfect and pure continuous praise. Praise is a life to be lived, a battle to be fought. It is a key to many mysteries of the kingdom. It is a vocation to be pursued, and a calling to be obeyed. It is an art, an exercise, a practice. David had 4000 praisers who praised the Lord and did nothing else.

Just keep hoping and waiting on God, your Savior. For no matter what, I will still sing with praise, for living before his face is my saving grace! TPT
