A WEAPON AGAINST FUTILITY

Without praise we experience an eroding that leads to bondage and death. The Bible says, “Although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened” (Rom. 1:21, emphasis added). With praise you and your circumstances can be changed, because it gives God entrance into every area of your life and allows Him to be enthroned there.

So any time you struggle with negative emotions, such as anger, unforgiveness, fear, hurt, depression, or worthlessness, thank God that He is bigger than all that. Thank Him that His plans and purposes for you are good. Thank Him that in any weak area of your life, He will be strong. Thank Him that He came to restore you. Remember the names of the Lord, and use them in your worship. “I praise You, Lord, because You are my Deliverer and Redeemer.” “Thank You, God, that You are my Healer and Provider.” Once you align yourself with God’s purposes through praise, you can thank Him for things that you can’t see yet in your life as though they were there.

For instance, if you are angry with a spouse or friend, you might pray, “Lord, I don’t seem to be able to get over my anger at this person, but You are all-powerful and can make it happen. I thank You and praise You for Your power in my life.” Doing this is your greatest weapon against the feelings of anger or inadequacy that undermine all God has made you to be.
