Psalm 103:1-5

"Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless His Holy Name.  Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities; Who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from destruction; Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Who satisfies your mouth with good things; so that your mouth is renewed like the eagle's."

Praise is an act of worship.  God doesn't need us to praise Him-we are the ones who need the benefit of praising God!

Praise God no matter what circumstance you are in.  That's where the Blessings of God will pour out. 

1 Thessalonians 5:18 shows us, "In every thing give thanks: for this is the Will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."

We learn to praise God in the midst of everything we are going through.  Things will happen when we start praising God.  We praise God through hymns, which are songs about God, and we also praise God through choruses, which are songs to God.  When we praise God...healing, encouragement, and edification will come!

Knowing the importance of praise, God will give You a breakthrough!

People shouldn't be "begged" every service, to worship our Heavenly Father.  When we worship our Heavenly Father, we will receive our breakthrough! We are able to "enter into the Holy Place"

Paul and Silas were in prison, and at the midnight hour, were still praising God! An earthquake happened and freed the prisoners, which then also gave the opportunity for the prison guard and all his household to accept Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord!

Some people are come to church like Paul and Silas, bound, but when they start praising God, they will see God move in their life!

The walls of Jericho were able to come down because of praise!

Jesus came across 10 lepers and healed them, but only 1 turned back and praised Jesus for what He did in their life!

When the Ark returned to Israel, David danced before the Lord!

We need the Glory of God back in the Church, in our home, in our life!

Psalm 150 tells us to, "Praise You the LORD. Praise God in His Sanctuary: praise Him in the firmament of His power.  Praise Him for His mighty acts: praise Him according to His excellent greatness.  Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet: praise Him with the psaltery and harp.  Praise Him with the timbrel and dance: Praise Him with stringed instruments and organs.  Praise Him on the lound cymbals: praise Him on the high sounding cymbals.  Let every thing that has breath praise the LORD.  Praise You the LORD."
