Praise

It is a good thing for you to give praise to God. It is a wonderful place to be in to be in a place of praise. One good time to praise God is when you are in the midst of a storm. When you are being drowned by the waves of calamity lift up your voice and your arms and praise God. To live in a place of praise is the right way to live. When you can praise God no matter what is going on with your life then you are walking in a position of rest. I desire you all the function out of  a place of rest.

Many people are not aware but I was ridiculed, rejected and mocked all of my life. People who were close to Me became my harshest critics when I declared Myself to be the Chosen One. People I grew up with, who used to be My good friends mocked Me rudely. I gave Myself to prayer and praise and the louder their voices grew the more I sang My praise to My Father. If you are being mocked by people and rejected by loved ones, know that I too suffered before you and lift your hearts in praise that you would be considered worthy to suffer.

I long to watch you and hear your praises. I long to see you build spiritual muscles. I long to hear you climb into the heavenlies  though praise and come and sit with Me. I long to shine through you as you give yourself over to Me. I long to infuse you with My peace in the midst of your suffering. I long to watch you succeed and prosper as you sing My praises. I love you so much. Don't hold back. Lift up your hands and dance with Me and fellowship in My glory. I am going to work through you and I am going to push you forward and I am going to lead you with My righteous right hand. Open up your hearts and enter into My rest.
