The Bible says that God is seeking those who will worship Him in spirit and in truth.

God is a Spirit and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. John 4:24

in other words, God is constantly seeking people who praise Him. When He finds them. He dwells with them as we learnt yesterday, inhabiting their praises (Psalm 22:3). Psalm 16:11 says:

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

This means that after your praise has drawn God to you, you will also receive joy and many other pleasures that come with His presence.

There was a woman who had been married for many years without the fruit of the womb. She said she would normally shout seven hallelujahs, so people began to call her 'Sister Hallelujah'. One day, she decided against praying for a child. She said to herself, "I don't need one child, I need three", so she began to shout 21 hallelujahs. Suddenly, the barrenness of 30 years was over and she gave birth to 3 children. When you send a shout of praise to heaven, miracles come pouring down on you. Psalm 67:5-6:

Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us.

Believe me honestly, when you come to God in prayer and just keep bombarding Him with requests, you are acting foolishly. Wise people know that when you come with praises. He will be the One asking you, "What do you want?" If you don't believe me, ask Solomon (2 Chronicles 1:6-7). When you prioritise praising God above making requests. He will answer your prayers far beyond your expectations.


King James Version

Psalm 67:3-7

Psalm 67:3-7
Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. [4] O let the nations be glad and sing for joy: for thou shalt judge the people righteously, and govern the nations upon earth. Selah. [5] Let the people praise thee, O God; let all the people praise thee. [6] Then shall the earth yield her increase; and God, even our own God, shall bless us. [7] God shall bless us; and all the ends of the earth shall fear him.
RCCG Hymn

Now thank we all our God

  1. Now thank we all our God,
    With hearts, and hands and voices;
    Who wondrous things hath done,
    In whom His world rejoices;
    Who, from our mothers' arms.
    Hath bless'd us on our way
    With countless gifts of love
    And still is ours to-day
  2. O may this bounteous God
    Through all our life be near us.
    With ever-joyful hearts
    And blessed peace to cheer us.
    And keep us in His grace
    And guide us when perplexed.
    And free us from all ills
    In this wodd and the next.
  3. All praise and thanks to God
    The father now be given.
    The Son. and Him who reigns
    With Them in highest heaven
    The One, Eternal God,
    Whom earth and heaven adore;
    For thus it was, is now.
    And shall be evermore.
