As the River of Life flows from beneath the Throne, the essence of all
life flows from the Throne. Each time you give
thanks, you are literally being regenerated you are being recharged.
Everything in heaven is rejuvenated,
continually, in the presence
of His glory. Therefore, you see the perfection of beauty. You see no
degeneration. In the word of God, it says we are being
changed into His likeness from glory to glory here a little, there a
little, line upon line, precept upon precept.

Praise BEFORE
the evidence is witnessed, triggers desired end
result/healing/deliverance.
Focusing on
the memory of the past,
instead of
on the glory of Christ, will hold you back from stepping
into full freedom.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HH15cdfmFyM - 3/24/2014 Sometimes
Jesus ties us up to protect us till the angel of death/trouble/danger passes us
by. We then can begin to practice thanking Him we do not need others to wash
or dress us, that we can get out of bed, yet another day, without assistance.
Meyer, Joyce - www.joycemeyer.org
TV broadcast - God told Joyce to think less & thank more.
The default mode for most of us is to automatically go back to concentrating on
what is wrong. What is wrong is our stinking thinking. Demons
are like leeches that drain us of the ability to function for God. We need
to burn off those demonic negative thoughts with the fire of the Holy Spirit &
the praise of our mouths. A deceived mind believes the condemnation of demons.
A deceived mind believes the lies of the devil. 1 of the lies is that we
are not worthy of fixing/forgiving. We need to confront the devil
& tell him,
"You are a liar... In the name of Jesus Christ, I reject you."
2nd Praise/ Praise is a prerequisite/shortcut to and initiator of
healing.
Praise Scripture Old Testament
Exodus 33:18-19 RSV -
18Mosessaid, "I pray Thee
(Father God), show me Thy glory."
19He (Father God)
said, "I will make all My goodness pass before you
and will proclaim before you My name, 'The Lord' (Jehovah/I will
be what I will be). I will be gracious to whom I will
be gracious & will show mercy on whom I will show
mercy. 20But,"
He said, "you cannot see My face; for man (humans/flesh)
cannot see My face; for man shall not see Me & live." (Spiritual insight: Nor can we see His Holy Spirit, but His Son
Jesus, we can see.)
Exodus 34:6-7 RSV - 6The
Lord passed before him (Moses) &
proclaimed, "The Lord
the Lord, a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger (long-suffering)
& abounding in steadfast love
(goodness)
& faithfulness
(truth),
7keeping
steadfast love (mercy) for 1,000's,
(+ upon sincere request) forgiving
(inherited)
iniquity & transgression
(of
spiritual law) and (original/Adam's)
sin
[but Who
(is just and) will by no means clear the
guilty (unrepentant/unforgiven),
visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children &
the children's children, to the 3rd & the 4th generation."]
Deuteronomy 28:47-48 KJV -
Because you served NOT the Lord your God with joyfulness and with
gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things; therefore shall you
serve your enemies which the Lord shall send against (permit to attack) you, in
hunger, thirst, nakedness & want of all things. Deuteronomy 32:3 NIV -
I will proclaim
the name of the Lord. Oh, praise the greatness of our God. Deuteronomy 32:3 JKVer -
I will publish the name of the
Lord; you, ascribe greatness to our God.
1st Samuel 16:12-16 KJV - The Lord said,
"Arise, anoint him, for this is he."
Then Samuel took the horn of oil and
anointed him in the midst of his brothers. The Spirit of the Lord came
upon David from that day forward... But, the Spirit of the Lord departed from
Saul, & an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him. Saul's servants said
to him, "Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubles you. Let our lord
now command your servants, which are before you, to seek out a man, who is a
cunning player on a harp.
It shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God
is upon you,
that he shall play
(music/hymns) with his hand, and you shall be well."
(Spiritual insight: evil spirit was NOT from God, but allowed by God) 1st Samuel 16:22-23 KJV Saul sent to Jesse
(David's dad), saying,
"Let David,
I pray you, stand
before me, for he has found favor in my sight."
It came to pass, when the
evil spirit from God was upon (tormented) Saul,
that David took a harp and played (music/hymns) with his
hand.
Saul was refreshed & was well, for the evil spirit had departed
from him. 1st Samuel 18:10 KJV - It came to pass on the next day that the
evil
(distressing)
spirit from (Satan, but allowed
by) God came upon Saul; he prophesied in the midst
of the
house. (Then) David played (a harp) with his hand, as at
other times.
(To consider: God does not remove our/His gifts.
However, there can be false prophecy, for Satan copies/counterfeits God.)
2nd Chronicles 5:13-14 KJV As the trumpeters
and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and
thanking the Lord. When they lifted up their voice with the trumpets,
cymbals & instruments of music, & praised the Lord, saying,
"For He
is good; for His mercy endureth for ever," that then the house was filled with a
cloud, even the house of the Lord, so that the priests could not stand to
minister by reason of the cloud; for the glory of the Lord had filled the house
of God.
2nd Chronicles 20:15,17-18 KJVer - 15Thus says the Lord to you, "Be
not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude, for the battle is not
yours, but God's... 17You
shall not need to fight in this battle. Set yourselves, stand still, &
see the salvation of the Lord... Fear not, nor be dismayed. Tomorrow go out
against them, for the Lord will be with you."

Lord, worshiping the Lord. 2nd Chronicles 20:21-22 KJVer - 21He

is your strength.
Job 1:21 KJV - The Lord gave & the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord.
Job 13:15 KJV - Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him.
Job 35:10-11 KJV - 10Where
is God, my Maker, Who has given songs (visions) in the
night, 11taught us rather than the beasts of the earth, & made us wise rather than the birds of the heavens?
Psalm 18:3 KJV - I (David)
will call upon the Lord, Who is worthy to be praised;
so shall I be saved from
my enemies.
Psalm 22:3-5 KJV - You are holy. O
You inhabit the
praises of Israel. Our fathers trusted in You. They trusted and
You did deliver them. They cried to You and were delivered. They
trusted in You & were not confounded. Psalm 24:7 KJV - Lift up your heads, O ye gates. Be ye lifted up,
ye everlasting doors & the King of glory shall come in. Psalm 50:14 KJVer - Offer to God
thanksgiving. Psalm 50:23 NIV - He who sacrifices

satisfies your mouth (days) with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the

and for His wonderful works to the children of men. Psalm 107:20-22 KJVer - 20He sent His Word (Jesus/Messiah/Holy Spirit
revelation), healed them, &
delivered them from their destructions. 21Oh that men would praise
the Lord for His goodness and for His wonderful works to the children of me.

14 You also exalt the horn of Your people; You are the praise of all Your
saints;
even of the citizens of Israel, a people dear unto You. We praise
You, Lord. Psalm 149:5-9 NIV - Let the saints (believers in
Jesus) rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on
their beds. May the praise of God be in their mouths & a
double-edged sword in their hands to inflict vengeance on the nations &
punishment on people to bind their kings with fetters, their nobles with
shackles of iron, to carry out the sentence written against them.
(Spiritual insight: Goal is to bind the spiritual enemy in the 2nd heaven who
controls the enemy noble/king/nation on earth.) Psalm 150:6 TNAB - Let everything that has breath give
praise to the Lord.
Proverbs 17:22, A merry heart does good like a medicine
Isaiah 9:6-7 NIV - 6To
us a Child is born, to us a Son is given. The government will be
on His
shoulders. He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 7 Of the
increase of His government & peace there will be no end. He will reign
on David's throne & over His kingdom, establishing & upholding it with justice &
righteousness, from that time on & forever. The zeal of the
Lord Almighty will accomplish this.
Isaiah 55:12 NIV - You will go out in
joy and be led forth in peace. The mountains and hills will burst into
song (singing) before you. All the trees of the field will clap their hands. Isaiah 60:18 CJB - You will call Your walls salvation & Your
gates praise. Isaiah 61:3 CJB Giving them (flower) garlands (garments of praise) instead
of ashes [for the spirit of heaviness (depression/oppression)], the oil of
gladness instead of mourning.
Ezekiel 3:12,13 - The Spirit took me up & I
heard behind me a voice of a great rushing, saying, "Blessed be the glory of the
Lord from His place." I heard also the noise of the wings of the
living creatures that touched one another, the noise of the wheels over against
them, & a noise of a great rushing. Ezekiel 28:13b NKJV - The workmanship of your (musical) timbrels & pipes was
prepared for you
(Lucifer) on the day you were created. (Spiritual
insight: Satan was created to lead all praise in heaven; now the devil's goal
is to block us from praising God. Let us aspire to fill in that void in
heaven with our praise.)
Daniel 3:57-58

affairs of the province of Babylon to Shadrach, Meshach & Abed-Nego;

Hearing them sing & astonished at seeing them alive,
91King Nebuchadnezzar rose in haste & asked his nobles,
"Did we not cast 3 men bound into the fire?"
"Assuredly, O King," they answered. 92He replied, "I see 4 men unfettered & unhurt, walking in the fire.
The 4th looks like a son of God."
(The Messiah)
Habakkuk 3:3 CJB -
His praise fills the earth.
Habakkuk 3:18 KJVer - Yet I will
rejoice in the Lord;
I will joy in the God of my salvation.
Praise Scripture New Testament
Matthew 4:10 KJV Jesus
said, "Get thee hence, Satan; for it is written,
'Thou shalt worship the Lord, thy God, & Him only shalt thou serve.'" Matthew 21:16 KJV - Out of the mouth of babes & sucklings Thou hast perfected praise
Luke 10:18 He (Jesus) replied, "
I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven."
Scripture also tells us that Satan was the
most beautiful angel placed in charge of all the heavenly worship.
Many pastors tell us that praise is the key into the door of God's heart & the key
into the atmosphere of heaven. It is a place that Satan knows personally.
Satan personally sabotages every attempt we make to praise God.
Praise is
worth the effort,
if we do not give up, not quit & not
rely on our feelings.
John 4:24 KJV - God is Spirit; those
who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.
Acts 16:22-26 TNAB 22The crowd joined in the attack on them
and the magistrates had them stripped and ordered them to be beaten with rods. 23 After inflicting many blows
on them, they threw them into prison and instructed the jailer to guard them
securely. 24He put them in the
innermost cell and secured their feet to a stake. 25About
midnight, while Paul & Silas were praying and singing hymns to God
as the prisoners listened, 26there was suddenly such a severe earthquake that
the foundations of the jail shook. All the doors flew open, & the chains of all were pulled loose.

In prison at "1:00 in the morning the
light flickered, & the Lord said, 'Get up and leave now,"
to "grab those 2 ladies, walk
to the cell door;' & it opened of it’s own accord... She walked down the
hallway to the office. Now there’s a locked door to the office that
opened of it’s own accord (mass confusion in the office where the police
officers are); they walked right out the front door & left."]
Romans 1:8 KJV - 1st, I
(Paul) thank my God through Jesus Christ.
Romans 1:19-21 KJV That which may be
known of God is manifest in (known to) them, for God has
shown it to them. The invisible things of Him from creation of the world
are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal
power and Godhead; they are without excuse. When they knew God, they
glorified Him not as God, nor were thankful, but became vain in their
imaginations; their foolish hearts were darkened.
Ephesians 5:18-20 TNAB 18Be
filled with the (Holy) Spirit, 19addressing one another (in) psalms, hymns,
& spiritual songs, singing & playing
to the Lord in your hearts, 20giving thanks always
and for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,
to God the Father.
Philippians 4:4,6-8 TNAB -
4"Rejoice in the Lord always (daily/continually)". Again I say, "Rejoice"... 6Have no anxiety at all, but in everything,
by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to
God. 7Then the peace of God that
surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
8Finally, brothers, whatever
is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is
lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence and if there is
anything worthy of praise, think about these things.
Colossians 1:3 KJV -
We
give thanks to
the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ, praying always.
Colossians 3:16 TLB - Singing to the
Lord with thankful hearts.
1st Thessalonians 5:6 NIV - Be joyful
always. Pray continually.
Give thanks in all circumstances, for this
is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
Timothy 2:1-3 NKJV - I exhort first of
all that supplications, prayers, intercessions,
and giving of thanks be made for all men, kings, & all who are in authority,
that we may lead a quiet
and peaceable life in all godliness and reverence.
Timothy 2:8 NKJV - I desire therefore that the men pray everywhere,
lifting up holy hands, without wrath & doubting.
James 5:13 KJV - Is anyone cheerful?
Let him sing psalms."
Revelation 5:8-10 TNAB - 8The 4 living creatures and the 24 elders
fell down
before the Lamb. Each of the elders held a harp & gold
bowls filled with incense,
which are the prayers of the holy ones.
9They sang a new hymn, 'Worthy are You to receive the scroll & to break open its seals; for You were
slain; with Your blood You purchased for God those from every tribe, tongue,
people, & nation.
10You made
them a kingdom and priests for our God; they will reign on earth.'
Revelation 5:11-14 KJV - I beheld & heard the voice of many angels
round about the throne + the beasts & elders. The number of them was 10,000 x 10,000 + 1,000's of 1,000's.
Saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb that was slain
to receive power, riches, wisdom, strength, honor, glory & blessing."
Every creature which is in heaven, on earth, under the earth, in the sea, & all that
are in them,
I heard saying, "Blessing, honor, glory, power be to Him
that sits upon the throne & to the Lamb for ever & ever." The 4
beasts said, "Amen."
The 24 elders fell down & worshiped Him that lives for ever & ever. Revelation 7:10-12 CJB 10They (from every nation) shouted, "Victory
to our God, Who sits on the throne, & to the Lamb." 11All the
angels stood around the throne, the elders & the 4 living beings. They fell
face down before the throne & worshipped God, saying, 12"Amen. Praise
& glory, wisdom & thanks, honor, power & strength belong to our
God forever & ever. Amen." Revelation 19:5 KJV - Praise our God, all ye His servants, & ye that fear
Him, both small & great. Revelation 19:6 KJV - I heard, as it were, the voice of a great
multitude, as the voice of many waters, & as
the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, "Alleluia, for the Lord God omnipotent
reigneth."
Praise Commentary
1st, Many charismatic pastors teach their
congregations that each of us has the same rights & opportunities as Jesus Christ, because Jesus is the
1st, the
example for us. Jesus is our brother according to scripture. As we
mature in the Lord,
we can hear His voice more clearly. Scripture says
that His sheep can hear His voice.
As infants we need to recognize who our
parents are, but soon we have no doubt. Joyce Meyers explains that a major
difficulty is learning to recognize God's voice is
lack of persistence
due to listening to our flesh & to the devil. She has a wonderful series
of 4 audio cassettes called Keep on Walking When the Devil is Stalking
#241
www.joycemeyer.org
which tutor us in recognizing our Lord's voice. She mentions that the Holy
Sprit is always gentle & gives us a choice, but that Satan is condemning.
secretive &
bossy. 2nd, Joyce says that the Devil encourages us to quit, to give up,
while the Holy Spirit wishes us to never give up, no matter what the flesh is
feeling or experiencing.
For instance, if the voice in our head says to
give up, that we will never get healed,
then that voice is either our own or
Satan's. It is not the voice of the Holy Spirit.
If we never get
healed and die, that is not God's best plan for us. God's best plan is for
God's will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. The point is this.
Quitters never win the race. The turtle (not the rabbit) won the race, not
because he was qualified, but because
of persistence. Not quitting also involves believing that God will act in
our behalf. God seldom intervenes without our trusting in His willingness
& ability to help us.
How does this apply to praise? Simple. Praise, in joy and
depression. Praise when we feel like it & when we do not feel like praising. As real estate
is location, location, location, so praise is persistence,
persistence, persistence, because the enemy of our soul will try to
discourage us 24 hours a day, but greater is the Holy Spirit who is in us than
Satan who is in the world. 3rd A most wonderful scripture is Daniel chapter 10. "You who are
highly esteemed, consider carefully the words I am about to speak to you, & stand up, for I have now
been sent to you... Do not be afraid, Daniel.
Since the 1st day that you set your mind to gain understanding & to
humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, & I (the angel of God) have come in response
to them."
African pastor Robert Kayanja admonishes us to begin praising and thanking
God immediately after requesting, & claim God's victory in the heavens
even though it
has not yet been manifested on earth. Kayanja has a huge
healing ministry, yet Satan assaulted his twin daughter with terminal cancer,
needing both prayer & doctors to remedy the situation. 4th Get yourself a prayer partner. Together you 2 can help each other.
God says,
"Where 2 or 3 are gathered together, there I am."
Satan wants us to rely on & obey our feelings. Never, never, never rely on your
feelings. Rely on God. Praise has nothing to do with feelings.
It has to do with who God is and what God does & will do. Begin with "thank
You". Thank You for a bed to sleep in. Thank You for legs that walk,
for eyes that see, for a mouth that speaks, & for ears that hear. Thank You God
for my food.
Do you know that saying grace before meals, protects you from
food poisoning? If you are paranoid, then this is especially a
good practice & a good protection.
Never sneer at those who say grace.
Instead realize that they practice a secret for safety.
5th
Tell your mom or mate, "Thank you for washing my socks". Tell your boss,
"Thank you for my pay check". Tell God, "Thank You for my driver's
license". The more we say thank you, the more our countenance changes.
Then we can begin to enter into praise. God, I praise You for Your awesome
sunrises and sunsets. I praise You for that delicious fragrant flower.
You are a wonder perfume maker. If you are alone in your car or alone in
your bathroom or alone in the park, raise your voice & hands to the Lord.
He looks at the heart, so every croak that tumbles out of our mouth is wonderful
to Him. Now start those feet tapping & dancing. See, this can
actually be fun. You can play the guitar unto the Lord. It is good
exercise & fun all at the same time. Will
people think you are crazy?
It is not what people think, but what God
thinks. Besides, if you are crazy, no harm done, except to exorcize Satan
from molesting you. Satan will flee. He cannot stand praise.
He
resents people from taking over his old job. We become stronger as Satan
becomes weaker. Praise injects healing like a shot of drugs. Praise
is just what the doctor ordered. Doctor Jesus. More is better.
Longer is better. Practice, practice. As you thank God, your
thankfulness will increase. As you praise, your praise will increase.
As you worship, your worship will increase. As you persistently
delight yourself in the Lord, He will begin to meet the desires of your heart,
if you faint not. Remember, Christ did not quit, even when He felt like
quitting. He persisted through the hard places, so that He conquered not
only infirmity, but also death, & is alive to now help us. 6th When is a good time to praise God? After we are healed?
When we are in despair or trouble? Both is the answer. The apostle
that Jesus visited after His ascension into heaven is Saul/Paul. This Paul
while in a miserable prison, instead of bemoaning his fate, glorified God in
song & adoration. The New Testament chapter of Acts 16:22-25
states, "The crowd joined in the attack against Paul & Silas. The
magistrates ordered them to be stripped & beaten. After they had been
severely flogged, they were thrown into prison. The jailer was
commanded to guard them careful. Upon receiving such orders, he put them
in the inner cell & fastened their feet in the stocks. About midnight
Paul & Silas were praying & singing hymns to God."
7th Derek Prince (a man through whom God delivered many evil spirits) was
bedridden & about to die in Israel. Larry Huch wanted to
pray with him. Prince, then in his 70's,
said he wanted to praise
before he prayed. They sang & worshiped, before Prince gave
his bedside blessing to Huch (who now has a deliverance ministry). Our
praise is a hello kiss, a greeting of joy, to God.
www.larryhuchministries.com/about/vision.cfm 8th Another scripture that comes to mind is that of Job. It is not so much
that he praised God, but the fact that he did not blame God nor curse Him as his
wife admonished him to do. The Old Testament chapter Job
2:9 says, "His wife said to him, 'Are you still holding onto your
integrity? Curse God and die.' He replied, 'You are talking
like a foolish woman'"... Remember, even Eve was a bad influence on
Adam, her husband... Beware of your advisors. Always try
to honor your conscience and your God. 9th Daniel speaks of a Babylonian king's complete healing of mental illness.
"At the end of that time, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward heaven, & my sanity was restored. Then I praised the Most High; I honored & glorified Himwho lives forever (Daniel 4:34 NIV Bible)."
The
complete healing was not year l, nor year 2, not year 3,
nor year
4, not year 5, nor year 6, but year 7. God is not only in the medical business
of restoring sanity in the old testament, but also in the new testament,
+ today & tomorrow, for God is not dead.
10th Praise is NOT our reaction to how we FEEL. NO. It is a
command from God Himself Who commands us to offer praise to Him as a
sacrifice. 11th Satan abdicated his position as director of praise, the very
thing that now defeats him.
That is why we need to praise, regardless of feelings, in addition to the
fact that God is worthy of continuous praise 24 hours a day. Praise
is the foundation on which we need to stand. Praise is the air
which we need to breathe. We praise Father God, Jesus His Son &
the Holy Spirit.
12th Our flesh/feelings are tuned in to the AM radio frequency, while our
spirit is tuned in to the FM radio frequency, for illustration. The FM
station may always be out of tune, because there is the static interference of
the enemy, + our unfamiliarity with tuning in to the right
station. We need to train our spiritual senses to recognize God's voice.
An infant will not bond to an absent parent.
We need to bond to God.
We need to practice listening to His voice, so our voice recognition
software will pick up His voice & not mistake it for Satan's. We need to
tune out Satan & self and tune in God. The more we do this the more comfortable
we will be. If our human brains are on overload attempting to climb into
heaven, our human spirit will miss out on its daily adventures with God.
When we die we may be only infants in spiritual maturity, having failed to spend
time with Dad. AM is equivalent tuning in to God with the brain/intellect.
PM is equivalent to communicating spirit to Spirit.
2 entirely different wave lengths. The brain/flesh will take us 40 years
to get to the promised land. The Holy Spirit can get us there in the
twinkling of an eye, just like Peter Pan, through translations or whatever
method God chooses.
13th There is the retold story of animals/birds held captive via a leash tied to a
tree.
When the leash/tether is cut, the animal never ventures outside its
former prison perimeter. We too often behave the same way. We often
have mental and/or enemy spiritual ties/umbilical
chords/strongholds/strings/chords tied to us that attempt to blind/stop/prevent
us from escaping from the past mindsets, even when the
rope/collars/chains/ restraints are cut off by Christ Jesus Himself.
Scripture says to put/take on the mind of Christ. 1 way to do this is to
recite aloud & memorize Scripture. When we input something new it
displaces the old, so there is no more room
for the old. The more full of
Christ we are, the less room there is for old mindsets.
Take a floppy disk. Reformat it & now it is new. Likewise, we can let the Holy
Spirit do that with our minds.
The more we dip into The River of Life, the more we will look, act, & think like Him.
As we break off/loose ourselves from depression, we allow ourselves to step into
thanksgiving. Next we go through the veil separating thanksgiving from
praise.
Finally we go through the veil separating praise from worship.
Here is where we
want to be in the arms of our spiritual husband and lover.
Here is where we will be content/free/complete/at peace.

"A sacrifice call for death. In the Old Testament ritual it was an animal
that died, but in the 'sacrifice of praise' it is the personal ego which must be
slain... The sacrifice of praise
is incomplete until it is expressed... Satan...is
allergic to praise; therefore victorious, triumphant, massive praise casts
him out, just as it did from heaven. When Satan is cast out, the evil
vanishes. Even if the circumstances are not changed, the evil is removed;
its fangs are drawn, its poison is extracted."

well.

privilege of bringing the glory & the ease into a service...their own

say...'I can praise Him on the inside.' I discovered it's NOT the
same... To praise Him aloud...was NOT the same. There is a liberty that
comes from putting your praise into audible words. It releases the river
of God to glow out of you as you open your mouth & begin to declare the
goodness of the Lord...declaring the miracle...the healing...the victory...the
newness of the Lord, using your voice as a trumpet... (Additionally) the Lord
showed me that if we wanted to bring in the Ark of God, we would have to dance,

you

into healing for our bodies & minds. For those who wish to have a more
intimate relationship with Father God & wish to find spiritual meaning to their
lives, then Ruth's stepping stones will take you there into the atmosphere of
heaven & into the arms of Christ. Her outline is to praise
until worship comes & then to worship until God's glory comes. God's
healing & help comes during the time God's glory appears. Ruth
encourages us to sing unto the Lord
in simple phrases. She tells us that
if we are persistent that God will allow us to learn bit by bit what Jesus
knows. Ruth tells us that if we have asked the Holy Spirit into our heart,
that He is there and that He will reveal many things to us, even the face of
Jesus, for heaven is an equal opportunity place.

Chapter 15 - Maintaining the Simplicity of the Glory -
"God uses praising & worshiping to bring in the glory. When the
congregation is not given the privilege to worship, we all feel robbed & may go
home feeling frustrated. It is wrong for those leading the service to get
so complicated that they deny others the opportunity & the privilege of moving
into the simple flow of the Spirit of God by praising & worshiping... 1 night,
Sister Ruth Carneal was leading our camp meeting service. The Lord spoke
to her & gave her a little new song, telling her that those who would sing it
would be delivered from sadness, sorrow & heaviness of heart. It
actually sounded more like a drum beat than it did a melody. She thought
to herself, 'I don’t do those funny little sounds like some people do,' she
resisted. When the Lord continued to impress upon her this simple drum beat,
'bum-bum, ba ba bum,' she finally did it, & everyone joined her. The next
day a brother from Uganda who was staying on the campground & attending the
meetings came to her & said, 'Yesterday, I got word that my mother had died in
Uganda. All day I experienced a great sadness. I was sad not only that she had
died & I was not there, but also that I would not be able to go home
for her funeral. But when you began to do the African drumbeat song, &
I began to sing it, God instantly delivered me from my sorrow and sadness'... He
was not only delivered from his sadness; he was totally delivered."

(1) praise

(8) evangelistic (9) preparation of hearts to hear & receive the Word of God, plus others.
"My husband & I were separated for 15 months & the Lord had me dance at home to
do warfare on his behalf. Sometimes dancing was the last thing on earth I
wanted to do, but that is when I knew I needed to do it the most, because I
could feel the oppression around our family. Now my husband is back."
"Once I felt very sick & had no strength to move. I knew I was under
very attack from the enemy. I forced myself to get out of bed.
I put on some praise music & began to dance before the Lord. It was a
hard thing to do. Little by little, I started feeling the presence of the
spiritual force of joy entering my body. I started getting so excited
about God that my praise turned into worship. As I worshiped God, the
symptoms left & I experienced divine healing."
Chapter 6 shares, "The Lord has taught me...to offer the sacrifice of praise
until it is totally consumed... 1st we thank God, then we praise Him,
until He invites us into worship... If we don't allow the sacrifice of praise
to be totally consumed because of time, we will be missing out on the manifested
presence of the glory of God."

throne... When we build God's throne with
our worship, Satan cannot remain near
us. (Remember that when David worshipped,
King Saul was freed from demonic
oppression)... Worship is a mandate...nothing to do with how we feel...
McAll, Kenneth (English psychiatrist) in A Guide to Healing
the Family Tree
cites a healing from polio:
A mother (whose heart was
full of praise and gratitude) thanked God "during communion" for her 9 children.
The next morning her shriveled and paralyzed left leg was healed.
McLean, Renny - Eternity Invading Time -

- Praise needs to evolve into worship where the glory of God exists.
It is in the glory cloud where we can claim/declare/confess/stand on God's
promises & receive our miracles/ healings. Praise also releases
angelic visitations.
Chapter 3The Realm of Prophetic Vision - "The Lord gave me a Rhema
word... 'If you bring the high praise unto Me,
there will be a continual opening in the Heavens,
spiraling upward, as you touch higher realms where
even greater miracles are awaiting to manifest on the earth.'"
Chapter 4 Perceiving the Realm of the Miraculous -
"If the music is live (not recorded) then there is a praise inside of you
that will bring the Glory cloud realm. When God's people hold back their
praises, it does NOT seed the Heavens for the rain which is yearned for.
Your praise caused the formation of the cloud... When ministers go into a
service, they must already have built their cloud. They either prayed or
praised it into existence. If we expect someone else to create our
cloud for us, it will not work.
It is NOT our cloud... Always participate
in the praise and worship time.
Be part of the formation of the
cloud... There will be NO clouds without praise...
If you are part of the
forming of the cloud, you know how to flow in the cloud...
If the head of the house arrives after the corporate body has ascended in
worship, then the leader is NOT truly in tune with what is going on in the
service. Herein lies an opportunity for the enemy. (Jealousy &
territorial ownership are just 2 of the greatest tools he uses)... A worship
leader who is in the realm of (corporate) worship...is hearing what the spirit
is saying and is in tune with what God wants to do." If the "pastor enters
(late) with his own cloud, which is not conducive to the cloud in the house, the
results are more like thunderstorms than...rain showers" because he failed to
participate "in the corporate ascent... Unity is destroyed, the
service has lost the Glory, & the people are left to wonder why."
Chapter 15Knowing the Realm
- "The atmosphere changes when you praise... Your (negative) circumstance
can't come where you are going...in the Glory realm. Satan (and his earthly
problems) can't come there with you."
Chapter 16Supernatural Realm of the Spirit - "Sometimes it takes an
hour of (thanksgiving & then) praise to get free (from earth gravity)
& pass over (into the glory realm). Even psychics tap into this
(supernatural) realm faster than the church (body/bride of Christ) does... Praise
is an affirmation of God's works, and worship is an affirmation of God's
presence."

"God...told me that He is new every morning, & with every new day comes a new
song, & with every new song comes a new glory." "God has called you to the
ministry of praise & worship (unto Him)... The anointing will make a way for
those that are willing." 1 specific anointing is the Psalmist Anointing containing 3 facets:
praise, worship, ministering ("un TO the Lord 1st & foremost & then a minister to the
body of Christ. Isaiah 61:1").
"He's given you something that only you can return unto Him... Your voice is the
greatest instrument of praise." Revelation 19:5-6 Hallelujah is a command (translated from the Greek),
"You must
praise Yahweh."
"When things are looking bad on the earth, you just reach into the heavens...&
pull it (everything perfect) down to earth... Release that heavenly command, 'Hallelujah'... You tell your body, 'You must praise Yahweh.
You must line up with the
Word of God. You must line up with the heavens. Hallelujah.'"

Riley...the oldest practicing physician in...New York...had actually
been...physician to President Grover Cleveland...also attended to President
William Howard Taft...Dr. Riley had talked about this idea: if a person would
each day deliberately practice thanksgiving, he would thereby activate new
sources of energy and power within him... A...healthy man even in in his
90s...said, 'Every day of my life, when I rise in the morning, I do my exercises
and my deep breathing, and then I have a prayer and give thanks to God for my
good body. The body...is a wonderful instrument...I start at my head
and I run down through my whole body. I give thanks to God for my 2
eyes that bring the world into my awareness. I thank God for my good
digestion. I thank God for my joints, that they work freely & without
inhibition. I thank God for the temple of the soul, & for the effectiveness of its operation
over these many years'...Remember Psalm 103:2 'Bless the Lord, O my soul, and
forget not all His benefits'...astonished & delighted & receive the blessing
of life with a sense of wonder."
"William L. Stidger...was in his time 1 of the most distinctive and
persuasive preachers in this country...a professor of theology...At one time
Bill Stidger had a nervous breakdown, during which he sat for months in abysmal
gloom & mental darkness... He said, 'I cared nothing about anything.
Everything was hopeless... dark...black, utter despondency'... 1 day, a friend
told him that, with God's help, he could bring himself out of his despondency by
practicing thanksgiving...'Think,' he said, 'of people who have greatly
benefitted you in your life & ask yourself the question whether you have ever
thanked them... Why don't you select one of them & write that person an
affectionate letter of thanks'... So he (Bill) sat down & wrote her (his
teacher) a letter, telling her that her influence had been a great blessing to
him & that he had never forgotten her....that he wanted to thank her for what
she had done for him... He received, in reply, a letter written, ''I taught
school for 50 years. Yours is the 1st letter of thanks I have ever
received from a student. I shall cherish it until I die'...
This brought a ray of sunshine into Stidger's mind, & encouraged him to try
another letter of appreciation, another, & another, until he had written 500
such letters. In the years that followed, whenever depression began to
seize him, he would take out his copies of the letters of thanks he had written
to people (+ any responses), & the happiness he had experienced in doing it
would well up in his heart once again... (Oversight is important to have before
mailing such letters.)...
If you're a bit down & discouraged right now, why not thank God, and then think
of some human being to thank. Call that person on the phone, or send a
telegram, or at least write a (very very brief) letter (or holiday card) to
express your thankfulness, or tell (someone) how much you appreciate (his
deed)." (Oversight & caution is needed. Keep it short. Do not
trigger sexual advances/fantasy in others who have problems in those areas.
If meeting for coffee, make it a 3 some, for your & their safety and
comfort. Allow the goodness & mercy of God to begin to fill you up to overflowing, so
His loveliness can begin to flow out to bless others, through you.)

I will be able to manifest
forth My glory through you. This is My greatest
joy, to lift man out of enemy territory, & seat him in the heavenlies with
Me. & where am I? Even at the right hand of the Father...&
ye are seated with Me, far above all principalities & powers. Through Me
ye have inherited all. & ye can lay claim to that inheritance NOW because I have already died.
Because I have already died, ye can enter in NOW. You do NOT gain an inheritance when you die
(& go to heaven),but when(Christ Jesus,
Messiah)the testator dies. Take it, My
people.
It is yours NOW. It is yours because of Calvary...Think of My love...the
tie-in between Calvary & this sharing of My throne life
(right NOW on earth).
I want you with Me. I want you seated beside Me,
because I want you near Me,
because I love you...(We have been deputized to function on earth on His behalf, not impotently, but
with audacity, in Jesus' name) I have vested you with authority, also...Recognize your
privilege to do so... Move out in the power of the Spirit into that realm where
I would have you to live and move and yes...live in Me continually, & not
that ye be moving in & out of this place. I would
have you live
continually in the center of the Kingdom of God, just as I have place the
Kingdom within the very center of your being (when God's Holy Spirit
impregnates your human spirit when you are born again; water & Holy Spirit
baptism further empowers one's spirit man). You
bring this Kingdom into operation in you own life by an act of faith...There are
works which I must yet do through My body, the Church, which I could not
possibly have accomplished through My own physical body in My earthly
ministry...There are sufferings yet to be accomplished in the body of the Church that I was
not able to suffer on the cross...Yea, & Praise Me when the most difficult thing to
do is Praise. This is the victory that over-cometh the
world...Faith rejoicing for victories claimed in advance...the very fabric of
things hoped for...the raw material in My hands...I am happiest there, &...ye
shall make the enemy most unhappy... This (praise)
is the most powerful weapon ye can use against him (Satan).
So praise is like a 2-edged sword, the 1 side
bringing health to your own spirit & the other side cutting down the enemy."

"Praise has
in it part of the heart and part of the spirit
sent forth,
so it is tangible to us in this world of true light, life, and
spirit.
To us here, praise is as substantive as a trolley on earth, you might
say. You join yourself to it, & it will carry you along. It can take you for a
ride,” she
laughed liltingly, “& the one joined to it adds to it.”
I turned my eyes to look out over the valley. How could this be? I
questioned within myself. Then I began to think, Yes, yes, I can understand
that. I know that f someone leads worship with an anointing on earth, it can
lift you in spirit to that person’s level of praise. The other’s anointing
carries you with it, & you add your voice to the worship
being raised to God. Yes, I can see that.
“Since all such praise travels to the Father,” she continued, “it is
like catching a ride on a passing trolley & enjoying the ride to the throne room.
If the angels do not ride all the way there, still they have added an imprint to
the praise. Therefore, they too have participated, if ever so briefly.”
Chapter 10 The Throne of God - Angelic Praise -
Thousands of angels were circling above the throne area, & thousands more seemed to be arriving to join them.
Countless numbers of angels were already within the bow of the corona around the
throne. Each group wore the color of that particular hue. They were
making musical sounds by flying at different levels and speeds & patterns.
Just as a whirling stick might make a different sound—increasingly higher or
louder by the speed with which it is whirled, so these angels in their flying
brought forth various sounds of praise.
The tones that their flight made were
different from singing or the playing of instruments. This must have been the
musical sound whose origin I could not detect earlier, rare in its beauty.
They seemed to be unbelievably happy, swimming, as it were, in the glory of God.
I too felt this joy; forever would not be long enough to praise Him & to
receive His joy back from Him.’ At times some angels would fly together,
producing a tone different from the sound of those in flight in a single color. One With Praise -
The melodies, like the light in the throne room, went right
through me. The music of praise entered me and passed through me, and I
became one with the sound. It was as though I became praise. I remembered
that in the Book of Psalms David said, “But, I prayer,” meaning that he was
prayer. So it is with praise in the throne room.
Epaggelias paused amid the dancers & spoke, “The
harmony, unity and desire of these here to give to the Father
His due, constantly giving of themselves & receiving more of Him when they
praise and adore, bring forth a sweet music.” “Yes,” I agreed.
We watched & listened a moment before moving forward again. As we drew nearer
to the throne, it was as though I began to see praise.’ It was translucent,
almost invisible, but I could see it. It seemed to have different
properties. Some kinds of praise were like fabric, some like particles.
Thanksgivings looked similar to bird flights of light. Praise Purified-
The angels in flight gathered some of the praise from the sea of glass
& wove it into their praise within each color of the bow
(that is,
the radiance around the Father) before it went to Him. Some worship went to
a small altar on which there appeared to be smoldering coals. I
wondered why some went one way & some another. Epaggelias addressed this unspoken
question, “Some praise is already in harmony with
heavenly praise, but some must pass through the fire.”

In fact, praise is the key that
defeats the enemy
Satan. Demos shares that Rick Haggins and his
students in 1987 stopped the outbreak of teen suicides in southeast Alabama, NOT
by praying warfare prayers, NOT by breaking curses, NOR by binding strongholds,
but rather by praise & worship.

Chapter 1Holy Songs from Happy Saints
reminds us, "However great may be
the work for which we are responsible, we will always do well if we pause to
spend time in sacred praise...Never, never, never may we cease from praising and
magnifying the name of the Well Beloved. This is to be our occupation in
heaven."
Remember with thanks, "In Christ we have always been redeemed by His precious
blood, always been preserved by the power of God." Isaiah 49:15-16 TNAB 15Can a mother forget
her infant, be without tenderness for the child of her womb? Even should
she forget, I will never forget you. 16See,
upon the palms of My hands I have written your name."
"Do we sing as much as the birds...as the angels? Yet they were never
redeemed by the blood of Christ... I intend to imitate you from now on."
"When you bow down before Him and say, 'Not my will, but Yours, be done (Luke
22:42), you show Him honor equal to the 'Hallelujahs' of the angels."
"New mercies make the song always new.
here is a freshness in it of which
we never grow weary."
Chapter 3 Prayer Perfumed with Praise talks a bit like
saint Paul &
Merlin Carothers, "Lord, I have this torn in the flesh." (2nd Corinthians 12:7)
"I beg You to deliver me from it, but meanwhile I bless You for it...I glory in
my infirmity (2 Cor. 12:9) even while I ask You to overcome it. I triumph
before You in my affliction, blessing Your for it even while I ask You to help
me through it and rescue me out of it."
"In talking with my dear friend George Muller...he mentions that he
has for so many months and years asked for a specific request and
(immediately) praised the Lord for its answer. He
praises the Lord for it as though he as actually obtained it. Even in
praying for the conversion of that person. Though...he has been praying 30
years for a certain request, & the answer has not yet been received, still all
the while he continues to thank God, because he know the prayer will be
answered. He believes that he (already) has his
petition and begins (in advance) to magnify the
Giver of it."
Mark 11:24 KJV - Whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that
you receive them, & you will have them. Matthew 21:22 KJV - Whatever things you ask in prayer,
believing, you will receive.
"Bless our gracious Lord for the specific troubles
(that are drawing us to God Who is teaching us many valuable lessons,
until the time the troubles are removed)...bless Him
for the mercy that we need, as if it had already come...praise Him
whether we receive the answer or not."
(Sometimes there is a time gap between what is bound in heaven and what
is bound on earth, or so it seems.)
Chapter 7The Singing Army reminds us to remind and
thankGod of all that He has done for others and for us; we are to
itemize these incidences. Only then do we have the privilege & courage
to ask again, for yet one more favor. Likewise, we are to claim/cling to
God's holy promises..."When you know that the Lord means to deliver you, bow
your head and give Him the quiet, deep, solemn worship of your
spirit...Praise Him for what is coming; adore Him for what He is going to
do...Your song while you are still in distress will be sweet music to the ear of
God...While they were singing, God was accomplishing the great deliverance for
them...When God has done great things for you and brought you through your
present difficulty, you must be sure to repay Him in the courts of His house
with your loudest music and your most exultant notes, blessing again and
again the name of the Lord."

"The Holy Spirit told me that God heard me when I originally asked for that
(hearing) healing, but there was a big blockage in my life. It prevented me
from receiving from the Spirit of God. It was my spoiled-brat,
complaining spirit. The Holy Spirit is NOT negative. He is a
Spirit of faith &
my complaining and grumbling put me in a place where He wasn't able to operate.
But I had believed
God to show me. He spotlighted this barrier and deal

An Amazing Story -

Marilyn, a psychiatric patient, was healed
when her parent praised God for her condition.
Contact
www.foundationofpraise.org or
call 760-741-2755
for this free brochure of Marilyn Foglio's biography A Most Amazing
Story of a mentally ill patient locked up in a hospital, until her
father began to praise God.
Scripture tells us that God inhabits the
praise of His people.
Satan must have permission to trouble us.
99% of the time we
through sin give Satan that legal permission/loophole.
(Job 1:12 NIV - The Lord said to Satan, "Very
well, then, everything he has is in your hands, but on the man himself do not
lay a finger."
Job 2:6 NIV - The Lord said to Satan,
"Very
well, then, he is in your hands; but you must spare his life.".)
God often allows/permits problems as the school of hard knocks, for many of
us are unable to learn any other way. When we praise Him "for" a
problem or for "allowing" a problem, then praise acts as Draino, unclogging
the vein/pipe/access to a remedy. Praise allows the Holy Spirit & His angels
to minister to us & fix the trouble/disease/ mind. Praise is a key that
unlocks a prison door. Scripture shows this explicitly.
Psalm 68:6 NIV - He leads forth the prisoners with singing.
Acts 16:25NIV - 25About midnight Paul and Silas were praying & singing hymns to God.
The other prisoners were listening to
them. 26Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the prison foundation was shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open.
Everybody's chains come loose.
Acts 12:6-7,10 NIV6The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter
was sleeping between 2 soldiers, bound with 2 chains. Sentries stood guard
at the entrance. 7Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared.
A light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side &
woke him up. "Quick, get up," he said. The chains fell off Peter's
wrists... 10They passed the 1st & 2nd guards & came to
the iron gate leading to the city. It opened for them by itself.
They went through it... Frequently Satan gets legal permission through default; we fail
to speak/declare/claim God's promises.
Jesus Christ, the 1st Son of God, did 100% of what God will do for us.
God
is not going to heal anyone.
He has already healed us. Jesus has the
stripes on His back to prove that.
(Isaiah 53:5With His stripes
we are healed. +
1st Peter 2:24By Whose stripes you were
healed) Now God is waiting for us, His other children to do their 100% in
each generation. With the baptism of water for the forgiveness of sins
& the baptism of the
Holy Spirit,
we are empowered to fulfill this requirement. Notice that
praise is a mouth thing. We need to SPEAK aloud (& enforce in the
spiritual world). God created everything through speech. This
includes warfare.
(Take note; be warned. Praise need not be based on feelings
of joy, lest we fail to obey His word and fail to perform His works. Certainly,
at least initially, Silas, Paul, & Peter were not full of joy in prison.
Act/speak/praise/worship now,
lest we lose another hour
of freedom. Do not stay locked in prison. Remember, Jesus Christ was a prisoner. God allowed him to suffer/be
tortured and die. His resurrection unlocked the doors to heaven. All
suffering is bad, but God can transform/redeem/harness evil. Do not use
your intellect to figure out things. Just praise/worship/trust God.
He can turn manure into fertilizer. Carothers, Merlin - newsletter - Praise News -

"Praise
is an instrument of violence;
Praise destroys the atmosphere in which sickness, defeat, discouragement, & futility flourish.
Praise upsets the climate which allows the growth of life's
suffering–confusion, turmoil & strife. Praise breathes Heaven's life into the vacuum death produces on earth.
Praise casts down the obstacles which sin, self, sickness, & Satan have
erected."
Ferrell, Emerson & Ana Mendez -
11/1/2008 newsletter - "Choose to know Him in an ever-deepening
way that changes...(one's)...very substance into His glorious substance."
There is a holy spiritual dimension into which we can enter prior to death.
The yellow brick road which leads us into that place is paved with praise
& worship.

get healed...Sure I'm NOT going to get it (healing).
What do I need to get it (health) for? Jesus already got it for me.
I don't need to get it. All I have to do is accept
(receive) it... I'll just quote 1st Peter 2:24 to you. It
says, "Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on the tree, that we
being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness, by Whose stripes ye WERE
healed." If we WERE, I WAS, So, I don't have to get it.
Jesus already got it for me. Because He got it for me (2,000 years ago),
I (now) accept it, claim (take/appropriate) it, and have it. Now (in
Jesus' name) you just gather up your little symptoms & get out of here.'"

any closer to receiving the benefits God has promised them... Sometimes,
facing tremendous obstacles & circumstances simply proves that you are in the will

any problems?... Throw your hands in the air & begin to praise
God saying, 'This is just another opportunity to prove that God is still

"There is a supernatural power that is released in praise that alters both
the physical and non-physical realm. When the praises go up, the Glory comes
down...Praise transports us into the realm of the supernatural and into the
power of God. Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they
shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance. (Psalm
89:15)...The Lord eagerly awaits the fragrance of our affections, desiring
to manifest His sweet presence and power in our midst. "The true
worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father
seeks such to worship him" (John 4:23)...
Praise should be a part of a believer's lifestyle, intermingled as a part of
their daily prayer life... I will bless the LORD at all times: His praise
shall continually be in my mouth.
(Psalm 34:1)...Praise...we offer to God sacrificially, not just because we
feel like it, but because we believe in Him and wish to please Him. By
Him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that
is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name. (Heberews
13:15)...
Science confirms that every created thing is made up of sound waves that are
constantly spinning at different intervals, forming objects in matter of
various densities both small & great. We also understand sound as a power,
that when cranked up to a certain level or frequency, it will break or crush
glass or break windows in a house. All sound, color & images are wavelengths
that move by vibration & are a power that have substance...
Understand that every attitude carries its own power
& vibration which is recognizable in the
realm of the spirit. It is not just an attitude. It is a force that
wraps itself around a person like a coat that continually pulls a person
deeper into its power until they are completely overtaken by it, whether for
good or bad. Every attitude we release is filled with powerful vibrations
wrapping themselves around us like a garment, further enveloping us into its
cocoon-like power. For by your words you will be justified and
acquitted [set free], & by your words you will be condemned and sentenced [condemned].
(Matthew 12:37)Jesus was saying that the words we wrap ourselves in will
either set us free or imprison us here in this life and in eternity to come.
Death & life are in the power of the tongue, & they who indulge in
it shall eat the fruit of it [for death or life] (Proverbs 18:21). Since praise manifests God's presence, we also know that praise repels
the presence of the enemy, Satan. An atmosphere that is filled with the
sincere worship and praise of God's people will send the enemy running: For in the presence of the Lord there is fullness of joy. Satan cannot
contend with or find remedy for the all-encompassing presence of God.
He must flee...The demons have always begged for mercy from Him to not
torment them before their time...
Cultivate an environment of the Glory of God through High Praises.
The enemy will run from us, demons will automatically scatter, sickness and
disease will lose their grip as they are demonically induced & will
eventually fall away. So the key is to become a praising people...Holy Ghost
presence will drive every inferior dimension of sickness and disease from
our midst...This kind of thinking is dangerous for the devil to see
happening in the saints of God. As the Presence of God comes, the veil
is stripped away & we are being transfigured from 1 degree of Glory and
revelation to another by the Lord who is that Spirit (2 Corinthians
3:18). Satan becomes powerless to stop the renewal of the mind and the flow of
revelation that comes to transform the person. He fears the power of the name
of Jesus, & runs from the presence of the Lord. Whoso
offers praise glorifies me: and to him that orders his conversation aright
will I show the salvation of God (Psalm 50:23)... When they began to sing & to praise, the LORD set ambushes against
the children of Ammon, Moab, & mount Seir, which were come against Judah; & they were smitten.
(2 Chronicles 20:22).

- "I SAW music. I didn't just
hear it. I heard it, but I saw music begin to flow out of this treasure chest,
& it was like a garnet red color; almost looked like liquid fabric. I can't
explain really sometimes. It began to wind around the feet of Whitney, even
over the top of her of gown of salvation. It began to wind itself around, & as
it did, the music began to consume her being. I heard one of the most
beautiful songs I've ever heard sung. This song was wrapping itself around her
like this garment; when it was done, it became this garnet gown. I'm
telling you on this earth no one has anything as beautiful as this thing was,
and every time that she would move her hand, this song would begin to come off
of her gown. The gown she was wearing. And the Father looked at her & said, 'I am giving you
garments of praise.'
That was the 1st
time I realized, that is something literal.
That is something real
that actually
exists in Heaven.
I was getting as undone as she was."

God Is Sending
Supernatural Help by Dr. Mario
Maxwell
- "Though faith in God has been the force that's emboldened and empowered us
to keep standing, it is also the very thing that the enemy hates & seeks
to destroy. It is because our faith and our position with God is something
he can never get back, so he doesn't want anyone else to have
it either.
That's why you mustkeep worshipping, you must keep
praising& serving God passionately. It torments
the enemy because it reminds him of what he lost and can never get
back again."

"The restoration of David's Tabernacle is advancing in the earth
realm in this generation.
You should read Amos 9 as well as Acts
15, and then the book of Revelation. One expresses
prophetically, another
expresses historically, and the latter reveals to us the present
expression
of the war in the Heavens. When you read more closely, you see how we, as
God's
army in the
earth, will co-labor with the Host of Heaven to express a
Holy God's overcoming
power throughout
the nations of the earth. This will
unlock a global harvest. Your
violent
praise is preparing a
storehouse for Kingdom harvest.
As you praise' violently,' you are releasing the Roar of the Lord
that has been held captive in God's people. Let me explain the "Roar of the
Lord." God's sound permeates from Heaven & orders much of what goes on in
the earthly realm.
When He is ready to bring restoration to Earth, He
releases His sound.
Judah goes 1st. Judah
roars! The roar of God is within
us. Judah means 'praise Yahweh.'"

Praise affects you, it affects the devil, & it affects God.
It touches everything and every part of your life.
Likewise, a lack of praise affects you in a negative way, turns the devil
loose in your life, & doesn’t bless God.
You have to get this
area of your life right. Nearly everyone
agrees that praise is good,
but very few feel any responsibility to praise God when they don’t feel
like it. I don’t know anyone who wakes up in the morning & plans
on being depressed. They would like to be happy & praise God, but they don’t feel they have
any control over this.
They think that praise is just a response to what happens & that if
everything goes right, they will automatically do it.
That is definitely not the case…
We may not feel joyful, but Scripture tells us in Galatians 5:22 that the
fruit of the Spirit is joy. If we have the Holy Spirit, we have joy.
We may not feel that joy, but we can choose to lift our
hands & speak forth praise to God by faith.
Learning to praise God even when everything is going badly will
change our hearts, make us much more effective, & cause our faith to
abound.
I truly believe that my choice to praise God, even after getting the
report that my son was dead, was 1 of the biggest factors in seeing him
raised from the dead after nearly 5 hours. I didn’t know what the
outcome would be, but I started praising God with all of my heart & telling
Him AND the devil, that regardless,
I would not quit serving Him. It was at that moment that faith abounded in
my heart.
I knew he would be
raised from the dead. Thank You, Jesus…
I have personally felt the benefit of rejoicing in the Lord.
I have
seen it destroy the devil. He cannot stand it.
I really believe that God inhabits the praises of His people (Ps. 22:3). God
is so pleased when we look beyond the natural and see things in the light of
faith. That blesses God. Praise is not the inevitable byproduct
that comes when everything is going right in our lives; it is the driving
force.
Praise will get our focus where it needs to be on God.
If we start praising God in the middle of our problems, our problems will
shrink so much that we’ll hardly remember to bring them to God.
We’ll be so busy praising Him and thanking Him for His blessings that our
problems will be an afterthought.
(Obviously, this spiritual weapon of choice is against the self-sabotaging
emotions/grain/flesh, but welded in the power of God’s Holy Spirit, it will
overcome the devil &
his schemes regarding us personally, our family, our circumstances.)

Jesus…We will never be victors until we quit being victims. We have to
get rid of the excuses & just do what the Word of God says
(as recorded
in scripture, but 1st
let us read aloud His Holy Word speaking it into our situations, atmosphere,
mind & heart, thus planting/activating it & allowing it to take root & overtake the weeds
in our lives.)”
Philippians 4:6 says, Be careful for no-thing; but in every thing
by prayer & supplication with
thanksgiving let your requests be made known
unto God.
Do you know
what the Greek word for ‘nothing’ in that verse means? It means nothing.
It means
there are no exceptions.
Sure, you might have problems, but you don’t have to worry or be careful about them.
You can go to the Lord in prayer with thanksgiving & make your requests known
to Him…

tutoring and
praying for impartation/ anointing to heal and

At the Boston 7/29/2006 session,
Benny shared that we are not
to be distracted by or address (speak to/about/discuss)
"ants"
(demons),
except as necessary to rebuke them, because God's presence/glory will chase them
away. Praise/worship/thanksgiving/gratitude is the key to drawing/attracting/ seducing His
presence. His
presence/attributes contain His power, which will float right back up to heaven,
unless we jealously, like a male in heat, court/guard with adoration.
Coldness or luke-warmness turns God off. Sincere/sweet/tender love
songs/lullabies
are what woo Him.
A perfect Old Testament illustration is
David's playing the harp
and
singing psalms to king Saul
to ward off the evil
spirits. 1st Samuel 16:14-23 NIV - 14The Spirit of the Lord
had departed from Saul,
and an evil spirit
(allowed) from
the Lord tormented him.
15Saul's attendants said to him, "See an evil
spirit from
God is tormenting you.
16Let our lord command his servants
here to search for someone who
can play the harp.
He will play when the
evil spirit from God comes upon you, and you will feel
better."
17So Saul
said to his attendants, "Find someone who plays well and bring him to me."
18One of the servants answered, "I have seen a son of Jesse of Bethlehem who
knows how to
play the harp. He is a brave man and a warrior. He
speaks well and is a fine-looking man; and
the Lord is with him"
19Then
Saul sent messengers to Jessee
and said, "Send to me your son
David, who is with
the sheep."
20So Jessee took a donkey loaded with bread, a skin of wine
and a young goat
and sent them with his son David to Saul
21David came to Saul & entered his service. Saul liked him very
much, & David became 1 of his armor-bearers.
22Then Saul
sent word to Jessee,
saying,
"Allow David to remain in my service, for I am pleased with him."
23Whenever the spirit (allowed) from God came upon Saul, David would
take his harp
& play.
Then relief would come to Saul; he would feel better, & the evil spirit
would leave him.

http://www.sidroth.org/site/News2?abbr=tv_&page=NewsArticle&id=9253&news_iv_ctrl=1141- (Katie) "we need
tools in the natural & tools in the supernatural, too. There is creative
power in the glory cloud, so we can utilize that to begin to create finances &
provisions for us...I put my whole team on a 21-day fast & I said, 'Lord, You've got to
give me keys to be able to break this debt.' So during the fast He gives me
Psalm 100, which says,'We enter into the gates of Heaven with
thanksgiving & His courts with praise.' He *said, 'This
is one of the ways that Jesus opened the heavens to get the glory cloud to come
& cause the multiplication of provisions.' I’m like, okay, what is
that? He *says, 'I want you to read the story in Luke 9
about the multiplication of the fish & bread.' So I go to Luke 9.
Jesus is feeding 5000 people with 5 loaves & 2 fishes. I saw it. I saw
exactly how He did it, Sid. It said that, 'Jesus took the 5 loaves & 2 fishes &
looking up to Heaven praised God & gave thanks.' What’s going on? Jesus
knows, 'I got to feed a bunch of people with this little bit. I need the power,
the creative power of the glory cloud.' So that’s why He first 'looked up to
Heaven'... He’s looking for the open heaven to get the cloud to drop. The next thing it says is, 'Then praising God, He gave thanks.' What’s he doing?
He’s doing Psalm 100, entering into His gates with thanksgiving & His courts
with praise. There’s gates in Heaven. You can open them with thanksgiving,
& then the glory cloud will fall, & our praise, God’s presence or
His glory will have our praises. So He’s looking up to Heaven & says, 'Okay,
now I need to get it open. I’m using my thanksgiving & praise'... He gets
it open. The cloud drops. The next thing it (holy scripture) says is this:
'Then He spoke a blessing over the bread.' What’s he doing? He’s doing what
God did in Genesis 1 when God created the world. God had His glory cloud & spoke into the cloud. He said, 'Let there be light.'
There was light. Jesus gets the presence of the glory... He lifts the little
bit of bread He has up into (the glory), & speaks a blessing over the bread,
literally commanding it to prosper, to multiply, & it does in the
creative power of the cloud...
Okay. So I see this revelation. I’m like (recognizing), that’s how he did it...
I can do it, too. So I did the exact same thing...if the Bible says it, I can
believe it."
(Sid) "You have a fast. You call it a Jesus fast. What is that?
(Katie) "Totally focusing on Jesus, just worshiping, doing songs that
are about him. Reading all the gospels, prophecies, everything about Jesus,
spending all the time meditating on Him, speaking within our heart, & just doing
that in a elongated period of time. What happens is you begin to carry
him & birth him when you do that.
So here I am. I see it. I was like, wow, that’s how Jesus did it...Oh my gosh, I
can do the same thing, right? So I begin to do exactly what Jesus did... I
began to do a Psalm 100. 'Enter into the gates of Heaven
with thanksgiving & His
courts with praise.' I just pressed & pressed, kept my focus, &
kept praising & thanking God. When I felt the atmosphere change, I felt the
burning & glory.
I felt like
a heaviness on my shoulder. I knew the tangible presence of the glory was
there, & I had created power. So I did what Jesus did. I lifted up my bread
(money) into the cloud & spoke into the cloud a blessing over it. I commanded it to
multiply. Well the day after the 21-day fast ended we got a check"...
(Katie's prayer for you,) "Right
now I just want to break off anything that’s on you that would hinder you from
believing that you have the legal right to ascend into Heaven and get everything
you need to cause your promises to come to pass in an accelerated manner. So I
pray for you now. Just receive it right now. I command everything that will
hinder you from ascending into the heavenly realms to be gone right
now, right now in the name of Jesus, & for you to by faith be able
to go into the heavenly realms & bring back everything you need
to live life & life abundant. I decree an open heaven for you that
you will become knowledgeable about the glory, how to cause it to
manifest in your house, how to bring it in, how to open the heavens, & have
a tangible manifestation of the glory cloud coming into your home, so you can
begin to pay your monthly bills & command a blessing
over them. So every time you pay your bills you’re gonna have a multiplication.
I decree that for
you right now in Jesus’ name." *(God
is communicating to Katie's mind via thoughts.)

"Next to the Gospel (especially the Words of Christ), the most
important weapon against the enemy is PRAISE. The Psalms tell us that praise
releases angels to go forth on our behalf and to perform the Word for
our lives. The Old Testament scripture tells us also that the Lord INHABITS
our praise. The importance of praise and thanksgiving in daily prayer
cannot be emphasized enough. Psalm 100 tells us that we enter His gates with
thanksgiving and we enter His courts with praise. Praise gets us into
the throne room and brings us to His Presence...Hebrews 4:16 tells us that we
are to come boldly to the THRONE of Grace to receive mercy and compassion in our
time of need. How? 1st, with PRAISE. Praise is a weapon of
warfare which drives Satan & his demonic forces from your presence. Deliverance
sessions preceded by PRAISE bring such power of holiness up on the scene that
demons cannot be in the presence of the Holy Spirit manifesting through the
believer, & they flee with little resistance.
Praise, to be effective, must not be mechanical or liturgical. It must not
become a repetitive litany of the same words. Every moment & spoken line of
PRAISE must be
a love offering to the Lord. It brings intimacy. According to the
Tabernacle pattern for the faith-walk it brings us into the Holy-of-Holies,
where there is no spiritual warfare, only the intimacy of the Lord & you.
Every purpose of praise should be different.
It does not have to be lengthy.
Let it be from your heart to the heart of God, that you might touch Him with
your love. Each reason for praise should be unique and different. Tell the Lord
what you want to do. Tell Him what it is about Him that you want to praise
him for. Pour your heart out to Him." (edited) Pray something like this:
'Precious Lord Jesus Christ:
I give You thanksgiving, praise, honor, glory, & worship,
for dying for me on the cross.
I give you thanksgiving, praise, glory, honor, worship & majesty,
because You are worthy, worthy, worthy.
I give You thanksgiving, praise, glory, honor & worship, for Your
Precious Blood,
Your Blood: Covenant...Atonement...Sacrifice on my behalf.
I give You thanksgiving, praise, glory, honor, power, majesty & worship,
for Your creation.
I give You thanksgiving, praise, glory, honor, power, majesty & worship,
for creating & making me to
know You.
I give You thanksgiving, praise, glory, honor & worship for Your righteousness &
holiness, imputed to my life by Your work of the cross.
I give You thanksgiving, praise, glory, honor, worship & majesty for salvation,
healing & deliverance.
I give You thanksgiving, praise, glory & honor, worship &
majesty,
for Your compassion, favor, mercy & kindness toward me,
all of which
are renewed to me daily by Your Grace.
I give You thanksgiving, praise, glory, honor & worship for all blessings, known
& unknown, past & present.
I declare You before men as my Lord & Savior, Precious in my sight.
I give You thanksgiving, praise, glory, honor, worship, & majesty
for all that
You are and do for me, & for all that I am & have.
I offer all of these praises to You, in adoration, because of who You are, & because You are worthy. Lord, I love You.
Draw me nearer, Lord. More of You, Lord. Don’t hold back, Lord. Come, Lord.
Lord, I praise You for who You are. Lord, from the bottom of my heart, I
praise You. Lord, I cannot get enough of You. Lord, I MUST have more
of You, Lord, increase Your revelation to me. Lord, I praise You with
ALL of my heart, mind, soul, &
spirit. I cry out to You in
PRAISE'... Abundant praise always brings revelation from the Holy Spirit."

to the One sitting on the throne, to the One Who lives forever & ever,
10the 24 elders fall down before the
One sitting on the throne, Who lives forever & ever & worship
Him. They throw their crowns in front of the throne & say,
11"You are worthy, Adonai Eloheinu, to
have glory, honor & power, because You created all things. Yes, because of

23The Lord said to Moses, 24"This applies to the Levites.
Men 25 years old or more shall come to take part in the work at the Tent of
Meeting, 25but at the age of 50, they must
retire from their regular service & work no longer
(in the temple). 26They
may assist their brothers in performing their duties at the Tent of Meeting, but
they themselves must NOT do the work." [Footnote: "The age at which
the Levites entered service was reduced to 20 by David. (1st chronicles
23:24-27)... Rabbinical suggestion (is) that these 2 verses indicate a 5 year
period of apprenticeship."
(Spiritual insight: Traditional age to begin ministry was/is 30, as evidenced
by Jesus' entry into ministry at that time.)

11The Restoration of the Temple -
"Worshipping is NOT singing. It is literally converting yourself into the
altar
from which
the river of God flows.
It is NOT something than one can
do.
It is something INTO which you must transform yourself...
Experience the levels of this river...a way of life...a bonding themselves with
God & God with them...to become one with Him...union between heaven & earth...
The 2
realms begin to conjugate." People become "the temple and the very son of
God, instruments of God in the hands of the Spirit that He can plan...Within
each one of us there are an innumerable quantity of instruments that He can play
as He pleases."
"God said to me, 'Worship Me as Creator.'" (We can also worship Him as
healer, deliverer, etc. for each Hebrew name that He is renown for.)
"God
gives us the privilege of being able to honor Him...minister to Him."

"To create the custom hardware for his 'RoyEl,' the Futureman also
employed the skills of David Van Koeveringwww.vankoevering.com , a veteran
advanced keyboard designer. Where the traditional keyboard uses 12 half-steps
per octave, the 'RoyEl' squeezes in 7 more keys per half-step. A color scheme
helps keep track of where the 12 tones of the traditional keyboard are.
RoyEl also discards the traditional ordering of the elements as arranged on
Kirby’s software, placing them—from 'low' to 'high'—according to what he hears
as a central pitch in each of the 103 chord-like timbres. 'It’s
more than just an experiment now; it’s a milestone in music,' claims Van
Koevering, convinced that this atomically tuned instrument will
'surpass our traditional, 12-tone, equal-tempered
scale and way of thinking
about music altogether.' He even speaks about a near-death experience a few
years ago and compares what he then experienced to RoyEl’s microtonal
solo performances. 'I was literally weeping when I heard these (heavenly) sounds
again,' admits Van Koevering."

"I 1st became a (born-again) Christian in 1959...In 1969 things changed.
I received the baptism of the Holy Spirit...
I was now exposed to a different kind of church...Everyone sang...accompanied by
tambourines, musical instruments and dancing. Sometimes, as the Spirit
moved,
we would sing the same scriptures for 30-40 minutes. It caused a
revolution in me...
We would often hear 3 sermons or messages by different preachers in the same
meeting & many people moved in the other gifts of the spirit. Neither were
the meetings controlled from the platform...We believed and practiced the 1st
Corinthian 14:26 format... We literally sang over & over again until it
became a reality... The glory of the Lord would fall on many of us as we sang
over & over again, 'Unto Him be glory in the church both now &
evermore.' Ephesians 3:21. We would dance into victory as we continuously
sang... Colossians 2:9...2nd Corinthians 3:17...Songs were often started from
different body members (not just the musicians) & the whole church joined in,
including the musicians. Most of the songs were from the scriptures,
mainly New Testament. We (adults with infants/offspring in tow) sang the
Truth that sets us free &
keeps us free, NOT singing popular or nice songs... Many songs bring us back under
the Old Covenant by asking God to do what He has already done through Jesus
Christ.
We should have it... songs that praise Him for what He has already done,
even if we don't feel (or perceive/see) It's an insult to God to continue
to keep asking Him to do what He has already done...
Our salvation was completed through the cross, death, resurrection & ascension
of Jesus Christ, so we must accept, rejoice in & declare it. That's the
Truth;
as we declare & sing the Truth, the Spirit of God will come & confirm
it...
Earlier...much of the praise that was sung by Christians majored on declaring
the great things the Lord had done for them... Today, many of us are using
worship as a cry for help & deliverance." (We Christians seem to be
either Holy Spirit empty or leaky.)

Praise You Lord. I praise You Lord with my whole
heart, in the assembly of the upright, & in the congregation. Psalm
111:1 - Several Years ago I was driving down the road just minding my own business when
the Spirit of God came upon me. He comes upon me in some of the most unusual
places. Then He said to me, "Son,
the church is sadly lacking."
I said, "What do you mean, 'sadly lacking'?"
"Well," He said, "My
children basically love Me, but they live in poverty and sickness & defeat.
They don't live in heaven's blessings, because they don't worship Me enough."
"You said that right, Lord," I said. "In fact I know whole congregations who
don't spend any time worshipping You at all. The pastors don't ever
say, 'Let's worship God for a while just because He's God.' They just
teach the people to go to church, sing a few songs & listen to a song or 2 sung by the choir, but
they don't really worship You."
Then He said to me, "&
neither do you."
All I could say was, "Is that right?"
He continued, "You're
going around the country teaching My Word. You're teaching faith and
confession. You're praying for the sick, but you need to worship Me more.
You need to teach My people to worship Me more. I'm their God.
They're My children. If you'll teach my children to worship Me more, I'll
do great & mighty things
for them."
By this time I was weeping. Every time the Lord tells me I'm a flake & I've missed it, I always repent & weep.
It wasn't long before I found
out what the Bible said about worship & began to teach on worship.

JEFF: It's the posture of the heart. You present yourself before
the Lord.
You give yourself to God. That's worship... Scripture says this: "You O Lord are enthroned upon the praises of
Your
people."
When we praise, when we give Him our heart: the throne comes down.
Where the throne is, the king is. Where the king is, there's a
government.
Where the government is there's the angelic realm.
His government rests down upon the praising, worshiping saint.

them." They got healed. The Glory of God fell on them.
They got healed & then saved.

KATHERINE: You know, I believe it is fellowship with God through worship,
through a life of worship. I used to think of worship as this strange conduct.
Why would God want us to tell Him how good He
was all the time? But actually, worship is a Divine embrace. It's like when I
was a young mom. My little kids would see
me when I came home, put their arms up & go, "Up Mommy, up." I couldn't resist. I'd want to scoop them up.
You know what. That's what
worship is like for us. We come to God & say, "Up,
Daddy. Help."
He runs towards & scoops us up.
Just as we love on Him, He loves on & tells us we have to pray for supernatural
help to handle how much love He wants to give us.
Torrefuerte, Ana Mercedes - "I could
see in the Spirit, the prophetic mantle flying over our heads in shape of an
eagle...I saw a bright light came down from the heavens & let rays fall onto...the deep water, where I was praising.
That night...I asked the Spirit of God to reveal what it was that I saw. I
looked in...the book of Songs of Solomon; where it was revealed to me of
His love for His partner, The Church & how He was preparing her. Then I
was able to interpret & unify those 2 revelations & confirmed through the
prophets that what I saw was the New Jerusalem that was descending
from Heaven full of glory in all its splendor of its sanctity.
Then in Prophet Ana’s preaching, she confirmed what I had seen by saying that in
God’s calendar something extraordinary had happened; that 40 years
were completed.
A New Jerusalem, a new generation, a new beginning. That
was how I knew that this experience was confirmed with His word in
Revelations 21."

There is a vibration/ sound frequency/band width of invisible light -
entered into via praise/worship.
This is the glory realm/atmosphere where God communicates to our spirit.
Our human flesh/ears/mind cannot perceive/hear/see/dwell in this spiritual
realm. Our sin could cause us to be consumed. Before sin entered the
word via Adam, sinless man could dwell with God in this glory atmosphere.
Christ came to reunite us with our spiritual dad. When we are born again,
our spiritual journey back to father God begins.
Every atom has a vibrational frequency. The vibrational frequency in which
we dwell determines the "matter", literally, whether or not a sickness will
exist or die,
whether we will be visible or invisible, whether our spirit man
can hear God or not, whether or not Satan will obey God's words in our mouth.
Like Jesus, each human being/flesh/soul in each generation needs to discover who
his spirit man is in the Trinity & then to violently work his way back to God,
to his spiritual inheritance/ancestry/parenthood/

"Your musicians need to carry
your sound, not just talent, to create &
break the atmosphere
that forms the cloud of glory.
Clouds are a type of the glory. It is
formed with worship...
If you do
not sow your worship into the cloud,
you do NOT have a right to receive your miracle
from the cloud of glory. Stop
looking for a man to lay hands on you. Take from the cloud yourself.
There are clouds for creative miracles, deliverance
& to supply
your needs. Start putting into
the cloud. Start worshiping. Declare what
is in the cloud. Inundate the atmospheres in
your
business, homes... In the anointing, we work, but in the glory we
enter into rest; God does it all. Worship the King, create an atmosphere
of of worship & watch as the glory...presence of God, falls & He will supply your needs." Maldonado, Guillermo -

"Every man of God ministers from an atmosphere. You need to break off old
atmosphere in order to have revival. Revival breaks the atmosphere. With a good
atmosphere, anything can happen. The level of worship will determine the
level of miracles God will do. Saturate your environment with continual prayers
& worship & break the atmosphere of unbelief, so that the glory of
God can manifest...
God is releasing a new sound to the earth & is raising a
generation that can hear the sound of victory, of the Shekinah glory. God
releases the sound before the prophecy. God always speaks from a cloud.
If you
do not understand sounds, you do not
understand God. Change the atmosphere with
songs that exalt the King." Maldonado, Guillermo -

"Worship determines the level of revelation of the church. God will
never (seldom) visit us
(especially as a congregation) beyond
the level of revelation we have of Him. The worship ministry is the hardest
because it is what the devil focuses on.
When the presence of God falls, that is when the King entered. Christ enters. If
we lose the objective (& focus) that
worship
is to bring His presence, it is better to just not praise & worship. God is holy.
Lift your hands & worship Him."

sovereign.)

GLORY in French (1.28MB) -
GLORY in Spanish (840KB)
Praise proceeds into worship, which proceeds into glory. The Glory Brings Revelation -
"If you worship until the glory comes,
you will begin to see Him." The Glory Brings an Ease "Every Spirit-filled child of God has he
privilege of bringing the glory & the ease into a service...their own
lives...households...churches...communities...nation. We do it with our
voices. The lifting up of the voice brings a different atmosphere into a
place... You will find yourself an over-comer. You'll find God working on your
behalf."
Section PRAISE - As an Instrument of Harvest - "The Lord said to me,
'If you want to feed a nation, & if you want to feed a triple portion, you
must dance.'"
Emotion &
Feelings Commentary
Worship is like the helium that
lifts our balloons up to God, the air updraft that lifts up the wing of a plane
into heaven, & the music that pierces & shatters glass ceilings hindering our
entrance to the Trinity. Let us rejoice, ignoring all dead or negative
feelings. Rejoicing is a key to our freedom.
The Lord is trying, without much success, to teach us that thanksgiving, praise,
&/or worship is NOT to be based/grounded on feelings, emotion, or anything of of
the human nature. Feelings & emotion can be a positive side effect the same way
that good health is a side effect of healing (or that disease is a negative side
effect or symptom of bad health, evil spirits, environmental pollution, or
radiation such as from atomic bombs or sunburn.) The point is this. Many
of us hit a glass ceiling in our attempt to enter into: an open heaven, open
relationship with God, or worship, because we are relying on our feelings &
emotions to whisk us away into a honeymoon type of orgasm. Like marriage,
childcare, eldercare, our tending to our relationships with: family (including
in-laws) & God is a DAILY deliberate plodding, based on fact & not on feeling.
Love is a walk, not a feeling. Lord, help us to be both teachable & obedient. Thank You. Amen.

The Frequency of Heaven
-
"I
believe that we are there to tap into,
to access the frequency of the worship
that is already happening in the
heavenlies, resonate that worship &
bring it into the earthly realm. We are
there to bring the Heart & Word of the
Lord & declare it into this realm to
bring a collision of heaven invading
earth. We are to be a conduit of Heaven.
Our objective, as it were, is to
facilitate the establishment of the
Kingdom of God by resonating the
frequency of heaven in the realm of the
earth... to BE the Throne of God (the
seat of authority) in the Tabernacle of
David.
'In
mercy shall the throne be established: &
he shall sit upon it in truth in the
tabernacle of David, judging, & seeking
judgment, &
hasting righteousness.'(Isaiah 16:5)
As we do this, the 'message,' the Word
of the Lord, the Seed is going forth.
We
believe that Father has already been
speaking all through worship, communion,
prayer, etc.
Our gatherings are basically a prophetic
expression of His Voice. In other words,
we are there to apprehend & declare the
Word, the Voice of Father, to express
Him, &
that Voice/Message comes out in many
different forms, not just in the
preaching. If you wait until the 'preaching'
for the Word of the Lord, you have
already missed half the message.
As we WorSHIP, we also become a
WAR-ship. However, spiritual warfare is
not a matter of us standing on the
earth, our praise ascending to the
heavens & piercing the spiritual
darkness. Rather, it is much more a
matter of US descending, bringing the
GLORY of the 3rd Heaven (epouranos in
Greek) where we are seated in Him, to
invade the earth & therefore displacing
principalities & powers by His
resonant Word of power."
Hidden in God
"What kind of a ship is it, you may ask?
This ship is also a FellowSHIP.
'To make all men see what is the
fellowship of the mystery, which from
the beginning of the world hath been hid
in God, who created all things by Jesus
Christ.'(Ephesians 3:9) The
fellowship of the mystery is simply the
manifold Wisdom of God (which is Christ
Himself) being revealed & displayed BY
the Church because the Church becomes
totally hidden IN God.
'Even
the mystery which hath been hid from
ages & from generations, but now is
made manifest to his saints...which is
Christ IN you (the plural corporate
fellowship of the Mystery), the hope of
glory.'(Colossians 1:26-27 my input in
parenthesis)
What kind of a ship is it, you may ask?
This ship is also a StewardSHIP;
'Let
a man so account of us, as of the
ministers of Christ, & stewards of the
mysteries of God.' (1 Corinthians
4:1) The word translated as
"steward" is oikonomos in Greek & it
means a manager, superintendent to whom
the head of the house or proprietor has
entrusted the management of his affairs,
the care of receipts & expenditures, &
the duty of dealing out the proper
portion to every servant & even to the
children not yet of age. We are
entrusted with the affairs of the
Kingdom, the expenditures & dispensing
of the mysteries of God as Christ
through us reveals Himself.
What kind of a ship is it, you may ask?
This ship is ALL His WorkmanSHIP;
'For
we are His workmanship, created IN
Christ Jesus unto good works, which God
hath before ordained that we should walk
in them.'(Ephesians 2:10) Father is
the author & builder of this 'ship' that
we are being made into, therefore this
'ship' is built to sail into the deep & withstand any storm of life."
When Jesus Speaks
"'He said unto them'...You know, when
Jesus speaks, people should listen. I
don't know that He was one to just
ramble on with inane frivolities. In
fact, here is what is recorded
concerning what He spoke:
'The
words that I speak unto you, they are
spirit, & they are life.' (John
6:63) His words are spirit &
life... hat means His words originate
in the Spirit & they produce Life &
action that impacts this natural realm.
Here is what He said, 'Let us go over
unto the other side of the lake'...Keep
in mind that if Jesus said they were
going to the other side, that meant they
were absolutely going to the other side.
Nothing could stop His words from coming
to pass because they originate in the
Spirit %they produce Life & action
that impacts this natural realm."

"When you run into the enemy's camp, guess who you're serving (the enemy)?
When you fall, & you sin in this world, you're not just doing this little wrong
thing that you can repent for; that's not what you're doing. You are worshipping the enemy. You
are stealing glory that belongs to God & walking over & giving it to the
enemy...You're doing the same thing Lucifer did. We were created to
produce glory for God. That's what we're here for, to produce glory. We're glory producers. With our love;
with our life; by the way we live. You
produce glory for Him, the King of Kings...Lucifer was actually created to
produce glory for God himself. He was not just the worship leader.
He was more than that. He had an intimate, intimate, relationship with the
Father.
How intimate? He would step inside God &
produce worship from inside God... When that iniquity was found in him, guess where he was? He was standing on the
heart of God. That's how trusted he was. He's the only cherub God ever called
anointed. Why was he the only one anointed? He was made to produce
glory from his very being to God.
All the beautiful gemstones that were encrusted on him. Some people think he
only
got a few. I saw them, their were thousands on him. He was the most beautiful
thing in Heaven besides the Trinity. God trusted him. Guess what? God knew
every-thing, the end from the beginning. He knew that a usurper would rise up.
He
knew that he would try to take over Heaven. He knew that he would try to take
over us. That's why He had a plan: the Son of God, Who would take back
everything Satan had stolen from us.
[isaiah/64-6.htm6For
all
of us have become
like one who is unclean,
All
our righteous
deedsare like
a filthygarment;
Allof us
wither
like a leaf,
And our iniquities,

arouses himself to take hold of You; For You have hidden Your face from us &
have delivered us into the power of our iniquities. (Father God, in

bat-like creature go straight toward his friend who was preaching at the front
of the church. Then Ian heard loud laughter & black thing backed off. 3 times
this happened & the the bat-like creature left the building. Ian couldn't see
where the laughter was coming from. Afterwards we asked the young
woman who was on the floor laughing what happened, she said, 'I am not sure, I
kept seeing a huge black-like thing & I kept laughing at it.' Neither of
the 2 knew the other was on the floor at the other side of the meeting.

"The devil said to my mind, 'Uh-huh, you're going to die. That's
exactly what's going to happen to you. You've just been lucky you got by
this far. Remember what the doctors said?'" "Let me tell you what I did.
It was in the winter time, so I pulled the cover up over my head & started laughing. Now, I didn't FEEL like
laughing...This laughter wasn't Spirit-inspired. I put this
1 on. I made myself do it...I must have laughed about 10 minutes.
Finally the devil asked, 'What are you laughing about?'
(Hagin replied,) 'I'm laughing at you...because you said I'm not going to
get healed...Sure I'm NOT going to get it (healing).
What do I need to get it (health) for?
Jesus already got it for me.
I don't need to get it. All I have to do is accept it...I'll just quote 1st Peter 2:24
to you. It says, "Who His own self bare our sins in His own body on
the tree, that we being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness, by Whose
stripes ye WERE healed." If we WERE, I WAS, So, I don't have
to get it. Jesus already got it for me...(2,000 years ago). I (now)
accept it, claim it, & have it. Now (in Jesus' name) you just gather up
your little symptoms & get out of here.'" (& the devil

- "it's good to laugh. You'd better get used to it, because you are never going
to stop laughing, & you'll laugh. You know you do still cry, but it's happy
tears. You know how when you laugh so hard you just cry, you just fall apart
& just laugh. You do that a lot in Heaven.
Every time you turn a corner and see what's there, you're going to do it .
People go, 'Oh no, we're just going to praise God. We're just going to be like
real holy.' I'm like/become holy when you get there. You're there because
you are holy. You're not going to have classes on 'Holy 101', what are you going
to do? You're going to have fun with your Daddy. Honestly, that's what He said:
'I'm like any Father on earth, but much better. If they got you gifts, did
things for you, & took you to places to have fun, why would I be any

Why would I say that you have to be like (what?) That's what He wants us to

What is the Laughter
All About? By Kathie Walters-
Print Friendly - 11/14/2013 - article - "Sometimes you don't know what is happening in
your mind, but your spirit man knows. A few years ago when I was in New
Zealand I was speaking at a conference in Auckland with Ian & Joye Johnson. In
the middle of my teaching session Ian who was to the far left of a very wide
room, suddenly fell on the floor & just lay there. I looked & carried on
speaking. About 5 minutes later a woman, my good friend Sheryl Morgan, who was
the on the far right of the meeting suddenly fell on the floor & started
laughing & laughing. They were the only 2, everyone else was just listening to
me. About 20 minutes later Ian picked himself up & sat back in his chair.
Then Sheryl stopped laughing & she sat back in her chair. I finished the
meeting about 30 minutes later. I went to find Ian & asked him what
happened. Suddenly a chariot came down & so I got in to it and the next
minute I was standing inside my friend's church in Fiji. He was preaching & I
saw a huge big black island demon coming right at him, then I heard this
laughter & it
left. (He knew nothing about Sheryl on the other side of the room).
Then I went & found Sheryl & asked her what happened & why she was laughing so
hard. She said to me, 'Oh I kept seeing this big black thing & laughing at it.'
Well the next day the pastor from Fiji called Ian. 'You were in my church
yesterday weren't you Ian? I was preaching & this big black island demon came at
me. Then WE ALL HEARD THIS LAUGHTER & it left.'? You see in the middle of
a meeting in Auckland God took 2 people from my meeting & took them to Fiji to take care of a demonic
attack on the pastor there. Isn't it fantastic what God does? There are no
limits in the Spirit realm. As long as we are not afraid of it. Laughter Took Care of
It - Another time when I was in Wales ministering at
Pastor Sarah Trinder's church, I got up to do session 2 of my conference. I
think I read a scripture. Everyone started laughing, loudly so I sat down and
waited. It went on for about 20-30 minutes. Then I continued that session.
At the end when I started to pray for everyone I thought it was going to be a
bit of a battle, because I noticed when I was speaking that there were a lot of
people who needed deliverance form Freemasonry & druidism. There's a lot of
druidism in Wales. As I started praying for people it was almost shocking in
that it was so effortless - things just left & lifted from people. I was
thinking to myself, 'Wow this is really easy, there are such strong spirits on
some of these people.' Then the Holy Spirit reminded me, 'Oh, the laughter
in the beginning already took care of it.' It did, that was what was happening.
God had already arranged the victory for people & in the Spirit realm the people
in the meeting picked up on that & the victory laughter came. So don't quench the laughter, it is one of the
most powerful warfare weapons.
God's ways are not our ways."
Deuteronomy 28:63 KJV The Lord
rejoiced over you to do you good. Matthew 2:10 KJV They rejoiced with exceeding great joy. Luke 1:47 KJV My spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior. (spoke
Mary, Yeshua's mom) Luke 10:21 KJV In that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit. John 8:56 KJV Father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. Philippians 4:10 KJV But I rejoice in the Lord greatly. Proverbs 8:30 KJV His delight rejoicing always before him.
Harrington, Ken & Jeanne -
Shift - Chapter 6Sing at Your Troubles
www.treasurechestministries.ca - The Harrington's relate a testimony identical to that of Marilyn by Merlin
Carothers, cited above.
God held a stop light at red until the father of a mental patient asked God,
"What do You want from me?" The response was, "Thank
Me for your daughter's condition."
The light turned green when the
dad obeyed. When he arrived at the mental institution, the daughter was
well.
(The very least we can do is thank God for what good He is doing in us, due to
this family disaster. Be reminded that Joseph declared to his brothers
that what the enemy had meant for evil, God had meant for good. Pearls are
only formed/triggered/caused by sandy irritants)..."Once we have prayed & know
by faith that He has granted our requests, we should thank Him. He has
done His part (2,000 years ago on the cross)... If we want them to manifest in
our physical realm, we need open our mouths & praise Him, saying, 'Lift up your
heads, O ye gates; & be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; & the King of glory shall come in.' Psalm 24:7"
Hinn, Benny - Operating in the Anointing CD set + workbook -
www.bennyhinn.org - Benny Hinn has
periodic one day classes in various locations specifically for tutoring & praying for impartation/anointing to heal
&
witness. At the Boston 7/29/2006 session, Benny shared that we are not
to be distracted by or address (speak to/about/ discuss)
"ants" (demons),
except as necessary to rebuke them, because God's presence/glory will chase them
away. Praise/worship/thanksgiving/gratitude is the key to drawing/attracting/seducing His presence. His
presence/attributes contain His power, which will float right back up to heaven,
unless we jealously, like a male in heat, court/guard with adoration.
Coldness or luke-warmness turns God off. Sincere/sweet/tender love
songs/lullabies are what woo Him.
A perfect Old Testament illustration is
David's playing the harp and singing psalms to king Saul to ward off the evil
spirits. 1st Samuel 16:14 NIV - 14Holy Spirit had departed from Saul.
Now an evil spirit (allowed) from
the Lord tormented him. 15Saul's attendants said to him,
"See an evil
spirit from God is tormenting you. 16Let our lord command his servants
here to search for someone who can play the harp. He will play when the
evil spirit
from God comes upon you, and you will feel better." 17So Saul
said to his attendants, "Find someone who plays well & bring him to me."
18One of the servants answered,
"I have seen a son of Jesse of Bethlehem who
knows how to play the harp. He is a brave warrior. He speaks
well & is a fine-looking man; & the Lord is with him" 19Then Saul
sent messengers to Jessee & said, "Send to me your son David, who is with
the sheep."
20Jessee took a donkey loaded with bread, a skin of wine & a young goat &
sent them with his son David to Saul 21David came to Saul & entered his
service. Saul liked him very much. David became 1 of his armor-bearers.
22Then Saul sent word to Jessee,
saying, "Allow David to remain in my service, for I am pleased with him."
23Whenever the spirit from God came upon Saul, David would play
his harp. The evil spirit would leave Saul, he would feel better & relief would come to him.

They
were there & never said: Hey, in the name of Jesus, in the name of Jesus, in the name of
Jesus. They just sang praises to God. They used the medium of sound.
Or are you talking of Joshua. He said to his people to just shout
Alleluia & the walls of Jericho fell."

(edited) SID: Like a lot of 17-year-olds, she didn't like the way she: looked...played the piano.
You were pretty negative,
period. JULIE: I was very negative, yes,
towards myself.
SID: But you found something that supernaturally broke you through to be
the person God wanted you to be. JULIE: Yeah. That was in my 30s. So I spent a lot of time from
17-30 not liking me. SID: You had a lot of practice. JULIE: Yes. I began to singthe Word. I began to, I would take a
psalm, I love the Psalms, I would take a scripture, maybe just 1-2.
I would just sing the Bible 3 ways: (1st)I would sing it
word for word. Then I would take the same
2 scriptures. It doesn't have to be a whole chapter. (2nd)I would turn it into a prayer.
So it was just my prayer. (3rd)Then I would
sing it as if God were singing to
me. SID: You had the privilege of going to Mozambique to be with
Heidi...ministering there like you minister for us. JULIE: It was amazing. I simply, again, because I love the Word, I
began to sing.
I just opened my Bible. I started singing from Revelation 1, where
John turns around, sees Jesus & begins to
describe what He looked like. I simply began to sing this
portion of scripture, starting in verse 12-18. Suddenly, 100%, not just to
some people, the whole room (the Harvest School). Every single person was
caught up in dreams & visions. JULIE: I had an encounter with the Lord. It was during our renewal
services in Kansas City. I was actually out for 4 hours. This was not a dream.
It was an encounter. But I went down & all of a sudden, 2 angels picked me up by my arms. I could hear their wings. These
had wings. I could hear their wings going [grrrr]. Both of them were saying, "Gotta get higher,
gotta get higher, gotta
get higher". I could see like this open portal, like I could see
what I would have thought Jacob might have saw.
But I was hanging there for a long time. They kept saying, "Gotta
get higher, gotta
get higher". In a dream or an encounter you're still you. I
don't know any more. In this, I turned around & said, "What's the problem?
You're an angel. I'm not that big." I just didn't get it, you know.
Suddenly, this very large (angel), like 30-foot grabbed me from the back of my
collar & pulled me up. So I'm dangling right in front of his face. He
said, "It's not them,
it's you. You've got too many gates open.
Your: mouth, eye, ear gate. What you: say, listen to, watch. If you want to go up, you gotta close the gates."
Suddenly I heard, "Bam. Bam. Bam." I shot straight up into this
portal where these angels were just having me eat,
eat, eat, eat the scroll.

http://d3tnb2mam8l2qt.cloudfront.net/sites/default/files/IS844Transcript_Driscoll.pdf PHIL: He (God) said, “You
know, if you base your relationship with Me on faith you will probably fail.
But if you base it on trust, you will never fail."
Yet You slay me, I trust You. If you realize that:
it doesn’t really matter whether I went or didn’t, that it’s not about me.
When you realize that:
it’s really God’s Divine plan, no matter what the
devil does
to set you up for
your defeat,
if you will NOT allow yourself to stop, quit,
get mad at God, or say, well why
did this happen to me,
because I went through all of that.
God, I don’t care, even if you (imprison or)
kill me, I’m going to
stand exactly the
way
I am. I’m going to believe You to do exactly what your
Word says.
That’s when I became dangerous to darkness. PHIL: Put on God's whole armor
so that you may be able to stand against the very
forces of darkness.
Be bold, strong, courageous, and have no fear, for the weapons of our
warfare are not carnal. They are mighty unto God. Be strong & say,
"I am a warrior in the greatest
army of the universe,
the Army of God."
You are born to win.
[singing] I am, I am. We stand against flesh, oh yeah.
We stand against the
darkness.
Oh yeah.
We stand against the darkness.
We are the warriors of God, soldiers of the
cross. We are warriors.
We are mighty warriors, strong against the darkness;
we’re strong in the
gates of hell.
Derek Prince (a man through whom God delivered many evil spirits) was
bedridden & about to die in Israel... Larry Huch wanted to
pray with him. Prince, then in his 70's, said he wanted to praise
before he prayed. They sang & worshiped, before Prince gave
his bedside blessing to Huch (who now has a deliverance ministry). Our
praise is
a hello kiss, a greeting of joy, to God.
www.larryhuchministries.com/about/vision.cfm ... A scripture that comes to mind is that of Job. It is not so much
that he praised God, but the fact that he did not blame God nor curse Him as his
wife admonished him to do. The Old Testament chapter Job
2:9 says, "His wife said to him, 'Are you still holding on to your
integrity? Curse God & die.' He replied, 'You are talking
like a foolish woman'"...Remember, even Eve was a bad influence on Adam,
her husband... Beware of your advisors. Always try to honor your
conscience & your God... Daniel speaks of a Babylonian king's complete healing of mental illness.
"At the end
of that time, I, Nebuchadnezzar, raised my eyes toward
heaven, & my sanity was restored. Then I praised the Most High; I
honored and glorified Himwho lives forever (Daniel 4:34 NIV Bible)." The
complete healing was not year l, nor year 2, not year 3, nor year
4, not year 5, nor year 6, but year 7. God is not only in the medical
business of restoring sanity in the old testament, but also in the new
testament + today & tomorrow, for God is not dead... Praise is NOT our reaction to how we FEEL. NO. It
is a command from God Himself.
He commands us to offer praise to Him as a
sacrifice...Satan abdicated his position as director of praise, the
very thing that now defeats him.
That is why we need to praise, regardless of feelings, in addition to the
fact that God is worthy of continuous praise 24 hours a day. Praise
is the foundation on which we need to stand. Praise is the air
which we need to breathe. We praise Father God, Jesus His Son and
the Holy Spirit... Our flesh/feelings are tuned in to the AM radio frequency,
while our spirit
is tuned in to the FM radio frequency, for illustration.
The FM station may always be out of tune, because there is the static
interference of the enemy, plus our unfamiliarity with tuning in to the right
station. We need to train our spiritual senses to recognize God's voice.
An infant will not bond to an absent parent. We need to bond to God.
We need to practice listening to His voice, so our voice recognition software
will pick up His voice and not mistake it for Satan's. We need to tune out
Satan and self and tune in God. The more we do this the more comfortable
we will be. If our human brains are on overload attempting to climb into
heaven, our human spirit will miss out on its daily adventures with God.
When we die we may be only infants in spiritual maturity, having failed to spend
time with Dad. AM is equivalent tuning in to God with the brain/intellect.
PM is equivalent to communicating spirit to Spirit.
2 entirely different wave lengths. The brain/flesh will take us 40 years
to get to the promised land. The Holy Spirit can get us there in the
twinkling of an eye, just like Peter Pan, through translations or whatever
method God chooses... There is the retold story of animals/birds held captive via a leash tied to a
tree.
When the leash/tether is cut, the animal never ventures outside its
former prison perimeter. We too often behave the same way. We often
have mental and/or
enemy spiritual ties/umbilical
chords/strongholds/strings/chords tied to us that
attempt to blind/stop/prevent
us from escaping from the past mindsets, even when
the
rope/collars/chains/restraints are cut off by Christ Jesus Himself.
Scripture says to put/take on the mind of Christ. One way to do this is to
recite aloud and memorize Scripture. When we input something new it
displaces the old, so there is no more room for the old. The more full of
Christ we are, the less room there is for old mindsets. Take a floppy
disk. Reformat it and now it is new. Likewise, we can let the Holy
Spirit do that with our minds. The more we dip into The River of Life,
the more we will look, act, & think like Him.
As we break off/loose ourselves from depression, we allow ourselves to step into
thanksgiving. Next we go through the veil separating thanksgiving from
praise.
Finally we go through the veil separating praise from worship.
Here is where we want
to be in the arms of our spiritual husband and lover.
Here is where we will be content/free/complete/at peace.
