Praise can open the flood gates of heaven! Praise is even more glorious when everything is going wrong and we don't FEEL like it. It can change our attitude and help us to focus on Him and not our circumstances.

I have been forcing myself to praise since my mom passed away because I knew it would keep me close to the Lord and that is what she wants me to do. Even when my son was going through a crisis a month after mom passed away and all seemed hopeless, I went to church and praised, and I praised at home with my Christian music on. When I lost my job two weeks ago, I still praised the Lord because I love Him. I don't love my circumstances, but I do love Him. When I praise, I keep my eyes on Him and not on worrying about things. I know He has a plan in all of these trials and I'm trusting Him to come through. He always does!

Dear Lord, help us to praise You even in the storms. That is when You do Your greatest works! Thank you for giving us your Holy Spirit to comfort us and to give us those holy goose bumps when we praise. I pray that we will keep our eyes on You in every circumstance. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
