PART III DIFFERENT TYPES OF PRAYERS
PRAYER OF PRAISE
THE WORD PRAISE IS MENTIONED
IN THE BIBLE 351 TIMES
TO PRAISE is to use words that
express approval or
admiration, e.g. for somebody's achievements or for
something's good qualities
WHEN WE PRAISE GOD WE ACKNOWLEDGE HIM FOR WHO HE IS:
HE IS ABOVE ALL: SUPREME
KING OF KINGS & LORD OF LORDS
ELOHIM: GOD THE CREATOR MIGHTY & STRONG
EL SHADDAI: GOD ALMIGHTY ULTIMATE POWER OVER ALL.
OUR BASIS REASONS FOR PRAISING GOD GOD LOVES US Romans 8:35-40 (New International Version) 35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall
trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? 36As it is written: "For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered."[a] 37No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons,[b] neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
IT IS BECAUSE OF THE DEPTH OF HIS LOVE FOR US THAT HE ANSWERS OUR PRAYERS
If you want to see the glory of the Lord, Praise Him; Lift up your hands and praise him
When our praises go up, His blessings come down
HOW POWERFUL IS OUR PRAYERS III
Lamentations 3: 22 – 23 : - Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.
23 They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
WE PRAISE HIM BECAUSE HE PROTECTS US FROM OUR ENEMIES
AFTER ONE OF THE MOST POWERFUL MIRACLES OF ALL TIMES RECORDED IN THE BIBLE
THE PARTING OF THRE RED SEA
MOSES AND HIS SISTER, MIRIAM, WROTE A SONG OF PRAISE WHICH THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL SANG TO THE LORD:
EXODUS 15
EXODUS 15 The Song of Moses and Miriam 1 Then Moses and the Israelites sang this song to the LORD :
"I will sing to the LORD, for he is highly exalted. The horse and its rider he has hurled into the sea. 2 The LORD is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father's God, and I will exalt him.
3 The LORD is a warrior; the LORD is his name.
4 Pharaoh's chariots and his army he has hurled into the sea. The best of Pharaoh's officers are drowned in the Red Sea. [a]
5 The deep waters have covered them; they sank to the depths like a stone.
6 "Your right hand, O LORD, was majestic in power. Your right hand, O LORD, shattered the enemy.
7 In the greatness of your majesty you threw down those who opposed you. You unleashed your burning anger; it consumed them like stubble.
THE BOOK OF PSALMS INSPIRES US TO HAVE A HEART OF PRAISE
In The Book of Psalms we learn how David ‘s heart was set on acknowledging God who He is. This made him the most successful king of Israel for all times.
A psalm is a sacred song or poem used in the praise and worship of God.
POPULAR PSALMS OF PRAISE: 23, 44, 81, 147,150
We praise Him because He heals our diseases
Matthew 9: 20 : _ the woman who had been ill with an issue of blood for 12 years.
John 5 : the Miracle at the Pool of Bethesda, the man had been ill for 38 years
The power of a shout of Praise: Joshua 6: 12 - 19
12 Joshua got up early the next morning and the priests took up the ark of the LORD.
13 The seven priests carrying the seven trumpets went forward, marching before the
ark of the LORD and blowing the trumpets. The armed men went ahead of them and
the rear guard followed the ark of the LORD, while the trumpets kept sounding. 14 So
on the second day they marched around the city once and returned to the camp.
They did this for six days.
15 On the seventh day, they got up at daybreak and marched around the city seven
times in the same manner, except that on that day they circled the city seven
times. 16 The seventh time around, when the priests sounded the trumpet blast,
Joshua commanded the people, "Shout! For the LORD has given you the city! 17 The
city and all that is in it are to be devoted [a] to the LORD. Only Rahab the prostitute
[b] and all who are with her in her house shall be spared, because she hid the spies
we sent. 18 But keep away from the devoted things, so that you will not bring about
your own destruction by taking any of them. Otherwise you will make the camp of
Israel liable to destruction and bring trouble on it. 19 All the silver and gold and the
articles of bronze and iron are sacred to the LORD and must go into his treasury."
