 (Third part) 

Memory verse: (John11: 41b,43,44a) “ And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.  Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!”  And he who had died came out …”

Thankfulness will fill your life with unstoppable miracles. When you stop to be thankful you stop miracles from flowing. The problem is not mountain standing before you, the problem is where you do you focus your eyes. Death was before the eyes of the master but the master turned his eyes away from death. He lifted his eyes and focused on God and began to praise and thank Him. He did not focus on people’s doubtful looks and questionings. David said  “ I lift my eyes to you, to you whose throne is in heaven ” (Ps123:1). Don’t tell God how big your problem is, but tell your problem how big your God is through your praises to God. It’s time we believers stop focusing on our needs, problems, failures, lack etc and begin to focus on the great, loving God. Let’s enter the gates of his presence with praise and his holy of holies with thanksgiving (Ps100:1) When we lift our eyes off our troubles and focus on God’s love, goodness, majesty, power, dominion in God and worship him, miracles and explosions will be our inheritance. Jehoshaphat and Judah were just lost in the joy of praising the Lord. In fact they didn’t see what God did to their enemies, they only saw later that all their enemies were completely destroyed by God. Stop struggling with your battles, just praise the Lord of Hosts, He will fight your wars. And you will enjoy sweet sweat less victories.

Praise will give you sweat less and stress less miracles. It’s time you change the menu of the things you’ve been giving to the Lord. Begin to give him praise, start to give him thanks, begin to worship him in spirit and truth…you’ve given him enough questions, complaints, tears etc. Please change the menu, our Lord likes praise, he enjoys worship, he delights in thanksgiving, so the next time you come to church or into your prayer place don’t forget to bring to God some real heartfelt praise. Some churches, homes, lives are so cold, some believers come cold in the church not knowing even what they come to church to do, they sit and watch what others are doing, yes they have come to a place where to meet God but they don’t know how to approach God. Come to church ready to reach out and touch him with your praise.
