Crying Out Our Praises to God

In our dry season, the Lord wants to minister to us concerning our prayers about our circumstances. In these tough, economic times, many families and individuals are finding it hard to make ends meet. There are many days when people wonder whether they will lose their home and business owners wonder whether they will have to close their companies. Sometimes the pressure mounts up so much, you just want to scream. 

But, don't panic. Rather than screaming and crying out of frustration, cry out in praises to God. Yes, I said, cry out in praises to God. Praise acknowledges our dependence on God and His power to move on our behalf. Praise lifts the burdens off of our shoulders and places them onto God's shoulders. God works in the midst of our praise. As you are praising God, thank Him in advance for answering your prayers and believe that you will see them manifested. In God's timing, you will see them answered.

Your circumstances may not change overnight. All you have to do is just ride the wave and know that your circumstances will only last a season. In the meantime, continue to pay your tithes and offerings and give God all that is due Him because He is worthy. We will win in the end. After all, we are children of the Most High God walking by faith. To God be the Glory!
