In Christ Jesus
I am so very happy and glad today,
For all my sins are washed away!
They are under the blood of the Lamb.
I stand justified before the great I Am.
I am in Christ, my Lord and Savior.
I am happily living in God's favor.
I will witness for Him in every place,
Telling others of His saving grace.
I love Christ Jesus with all my heart.
For Him, I want to always do my part.
I strive to be more like Him every day
In how I behave and in what I say.
For my Lord, I want to be on fire,
For serving Him is my utmost desire.
The inner joy I have will not cease.
Being in Christ gives wonderful peace.
For all my sins are washed away!
They are under the blood of the Lamb.
I stand justified before the great I Am.
I am in Christ, my Lord and Savior.
I am happily living in God's favor.
I will witness for Him in every place,
Telling others of His saving grace.
I love Christ Jesus with all my heart.
For Him, I want to always do my part.
I strive to be more like Him every day
In how I behave and in what I say.
For my Lord, I want to be on fire,
For serving Him is my utmost desire.
The inner joy I have will not cease.
Being in Christ gives wonderful peace.

God Bless !
When the children of Judah found themselves outnumbered by the hostile armies of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, King Jehoshophat and all the people sought the Lord for His help. The Lord assured the people that this would be His battle. He told them to go out against them, and He would do the fighting for them. So what did the children of Judah do? Being the people of “praise” (Judah actually means Praise), and knowing that God manifests His power through praise, they sent their army against their enemies, led by the praisers!
So on they went, ahead of the army declaring, “Praise the Lord, for His mercy endureth forever!” And the scripture says, “...when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments against the children of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, which were come against Judah; and they were smitten” (2 Chronicles 20:22).
When God’s people begin to praise His name, it sends the enemy running! I challenge you to become a person of praise, and you will experience the release of the power of God
Praise Sends the Enemy Running
Since praise manifests God’s
presence, we also realize that praise repels the presence of the enemy, Satan.
An atmosphere which is filled with sincere worship and praise to God by humble
and contrite hearts is disgusting to the Devil. He fears the power in the name
of Jesus, and flees from the Lord’s habitation in praise. “Whoso offereth
praise glorifieth me: and to him that ordereth his conversation aright will I
show the salvation of God” (Psalms 50:23).When the children of Judah found themselves outnumbered by the hostile armies of Ammon, Moab, and mount Seir, King Jehoshophat and all the people sought the Lord for His help.
