1 Chronicles 16:23-31 Life is fuller when we praise.
God is in control.  He is in us.
To hear from God, be quiet! Why prayers are not answered?
Because our prayers are all about what we want.
Not my will, but God, whatever you want.
Psalm 100:4 Praise opens the heavens.
When you come before God, come with praise.
Build Him an altar in your heart.
There are times we go through things such as sickness.
Use the weapon of praise when you are going through.
The greatest weapon is praise in the midst of hurt and not
knowing.  There is a better life.  Learn to use the weapon of
praise.  You have to go through some stuff.  Praise Him for
the answer. You can make it!
Hebrews 4:14-16 Make it personal..
He doesn’t ask you to carry problems by yourself.  Walk it
out together with God.  Get serious.  Praise, praise, praise.
Gold goes through the fire; your weapon is praise.
Proverbs 27:21 Praise brings the fire of His presence.
Man is tested by his praise.
Psalm 81:10 I am the Lord your God.  That says it all.
 
Sunday pm-continued.
Exodus 25:8We are the Temples of God to dwell in.
Weapon is praise. We have to do our part.
“Let them make Me a sanctuary that I may dwell in their midst.”
Make an altar in your heart where you meet with God on a regular
basis.  God wants to dwell in the midst of His people. Gives us
a pattern, shows us how to do it.  We are the temple of the living
God.
Psalm 22:3 He abides in praise.  Praise is a weapon.
Genesis 29:35, Revelation 5:5, 1 Peter 5:8- the devil is an imposter.

There is hope in Jesus.
Praise is our weapon.
Come boldly to the throne of grace.
To get the benefits of God, you must serve Him.
God wants you to have the fullness of the earth.
We are the temples of God. There is a fuller life in Christ.
Praise at all times-in good times and bad.
Next weapon is THANKFULNESS.
Be thankful no matter what. Find something good in a bad
situation.  Prasie and thankfulness will defeat your enemy.
Determine in your heart to praise and be thankful.
You determine your destiny. Go for it!
What are you going to do to make it better?
If you want something to change, change it.
Pride will destroy you.
I can do all things through Christi who strengthens me.
