We all face challenges and obstacles in life. We all have dreams in our hearts and at times it looks like they’re not going to come to pass. During these difficult seasons we have a choice. We can get negative and discouraged and talk about how things are not going to work out, or we can switch over into praise and thanksgiving which opens the door for God to move on our behalf.
A lot of times people think, “I’ll have a good attitude as soon as I get over this financial issue.” “I’ll give God praise when I get through this tough time in my relationship.” But that’s not how faith works. As long as we’re negative, discouraged and focused on our problems, it limits what God can do.
You’ve got to give God praise FIRST, and then the breakthrough will come. You’ve got to change your focus FIRST, and then things will change in your favor. The instances are too numerous for me to name here but even a cursory review of the successes God orchestrated in the bible show that praise always precedes the victory.
Today, if you’ve been dwelling on the wrong things and focusing in the wrong direction, switch over into praise and thanksgiving. Begin to declare that God is good. Declare that He is faithful. Declare His praises and you will open the door to victory in every area of your life!
