CAST YOUR CARE THROUGH THANKSGIVING AND PRAISE.

           

God is most reliable at all times and can be trusted to do whatever he promises to do, I remember the case of the ten leapers that met Jesus and pleaded with him to make them clean and he did delivered them and there were clean but only one person came back to show appreciation for the lords doing.  The others continued forgotten someone did something for them. “When that one person came back, Jesus asked him where the nine others are. Do they not come to show appreciation?”

Is this not our own disposition to God also? He is a God whom we always cried on whenever we have issues and that is all. The solution comes and then nobody will see us again in church until when another challenge comes up again. We are busy in church attending all the services, we will be around during Sunday service infant we are in the first service, second service and third service on Sunday praying and singing, casting and binding all evil things and eventually we will still attend the mid-week service and engage in all the prayer session, we will not miss the night vigil and cross over service, we will be there present to encounter God and hear what he has to say at a time like this,

Then after this stress and search for God , he would have seen the hunger and commitment in us , we are really searching for him, and so much devoted to him, whatever they asked us to do, we will do it willingly and without complaining about our status and the fact that others are not partaking in it with us, then the rain of abundance comes and the gate of heaven is opened on us , all the things we have been asking from God is released and another dimension is opened unto us, infant we are now operating in another platform.

Then at this point in time. Nobody will see us during Sunday service and even during the time, we will want to come, we will come late and usually in a hurry to leave and continue with our activities, someone who has spent six days working and toiling for his own and just having one day to rest and at least visit the temple of his acclaimed God, but on such a seventh day he comes and also in a haste to leave. We are too busy to attend midweek service, and then suddenly attending crossover service becomes impossible because we are so engaged and tired to go.Is it not painful that one of the things God uses to bring his children close to him after they have gone far is challenges? he will be there and shielding you from the attack of the enemy and all the battles facing you, he will fight for you, while you are busing playing the king and the boss who nobody should dictate what he should do, you will become the king who does not receive instruction nor advices from anyone,

Then at a point when you have gone far and forgotten the lord who has been with you, infant he is your foundation and the secret of your success then he will simply shift small to the corner and you are exposed to the wiles of the enemy and the main reason is for you to wake up from your suicide mission, or do you not know that it is a suicide mission to plan and organize your life without getting God involved in it.Have you ever reached a point in your life when you are bowing your need in prayer and did not ask from him anything? You did not accuse him of unfaithfulness, you did not accuse him of abandoning you nor neglecting you, and neither did you complain to him about someone who is offending you. Nor reporting to him your enemies and their gang up against you. It was not about opportunities due to you that was denied you.

You are simply filled with wonders and awe with him and his goodness, you are just reminiscing about him. Who actually is this God and how big could he be? How is he and how mighty could his presence in heaven be?  You are simply remembering his faithfulness in time past, his help in ages past and all he is willing to do again for you, infant his promises are too good to be true and you are certain without any iota of doubt that all that he has promised to do. He is able to do.

At that point all you could do is say thank you lord for your goodness and your mercy, thank you father for your care and love for me, this is a time for sober reflection, it is a time to imagine who really you are that the lord is mindful of you?, what really have you done to him to deserve all that he has done for you?. Who am I that the lord is thinking about me would be your question? And you will be left with no answers.

Because you are simply nothing, you are worth nothing and empty without Jesus, you are worthless left alone to manage yourself and decide on how things should go, all you have receive is simply not because of you righteousness, it is simply not because of your beauty nor handsomeness, it has nothing to do with your educational background nor intelligent, it is not of your might or strength that you have acquired so much,Then will you fall and bow down to him.  To reveal your gratitude and an expression of your innermost appreciation to him. For all he has done in the past, for all he is doing presently and for all he is about to do. he is mighty and worthy of our praise, and infant if our whole body should become mouth only., it will still not be enough to show how big and how good he has been to us all.

Maybe you do not know, but let me shock you with this. It is arm robbery and an offence to be ungrateful to God, it is arm robbery to eat the glory and praises due to God, and it is similar to taking what does not belong to you which is stealing. And the same punishment attributable to those who steal is what you deserve and that is what should be melted on you but God is still showing his mercy and love which is evergreen from generation to generation.I remembered those days when I was in school. When I got the revelation of what praise and testimonies is, I was filled with testimonies and there is never a day of revival service in church that I do not step out to testify of what the lord is doing to me, infant I was boldly declaring that he has done so much and will still do much again and I will still testify next week and true to it, I will still come out and testify to the glory of the lord and to the shame of the devil.

At a point the spirit ministered to me and said, “always endeavor to testify of everything and anything you received from God, do not keep it nor procrastinate it, it is not good, do not allow your testimonies to accumulate. otherwise it will reach a point when they will become too big that you will not even know where to start from, the testimonies will become too much that you will not know which one to share and leave the other.”Then at this point, you will feel negligent to testify and then relax simply because the previous one he did, you did not testify and yet nothing happened and therefore you are not under any compulsion that you must testify at all.

I want you to reach that great height. though it not everybody that have reach that point but nothing stops you from accessing that point, that level where your everyday life is a testimony, where you are filled with testimonies at all times and irrespective of whatever happened. You are giving him praise when things are good, you are also giving him praise when thing are going on bad,It can only come from understanding and a revelation. “Flesh and blood do not and cannot reveal this one. it is entirely a spiritual matter and an affair of those in the spirit, those who understands that irrespective of how big and powerful their problem is, God is still bigger and more powerful than it, those that understand that it will simply not take God anything to change your situation no matter how big it is, he will not need to sweat nor think for the solution to come, our situation no matter how big cannot move God out of his throne before the solution will come”

He is sited on his throne and from the throne he administers the earth. The heaven and everything that dwells therein, what better language you think heaven understands more than praises and adoration to the greatest name in heaven and earth. There is power in tongue and tongue ministration, there is power in the prophetic declaration of God’s word and there is power in prayer and supplication but there is a greater power in praise and worship.Your complain does not move God out of the throne. Our prayer does not move God out of his throne in heaven , even the warfare prayer we make seeking for victory and revenge , asking for the life of our enemies will not take God out of his sitting position on the throne should he want to attend to them, he will simply stay at that same sitting position and give instruction and things will begin to happened , our prophecies and the preaching of the gospel which demand urgent attention so that signs and wonders will accompany it is still not enough reason and does not have commanding influence to make God leave his throne and then effect all this things , he will still be seating on his throne and all these things will happened.

But there is one thing which when you approach God with it. He will leave his throne and express his acceptance of it. That thing is praise and worship, who receives praise seating down, even God himself stands and expresses his fullness when he is praised and worshiped by his children. He understands praise more than any other language, infant he is jealous when his praise is giving to another person and his praise he cannot share with any mortal or immortal.To what extent have you maximized the potential and the power inherent in praise and worship? Cast your cares to him with praise and worship, why not stop focusing your attention on those challenges and difficulties around you and focus on God and his wonders? Prove to him that your attention is so focused on him that nothing on earth will or can ever make you depart from him or stop praising him.
