As Christians we must understand the power of praise and how it affects our lives. We all have problems but we also have a God in heaven who wants to solve them. Satan is always reducing God and increasing our problems. But when we are in the atmosphere of praise we begin to see everything in the right perspective. God gets bigger, our problems get smaller and Satan has to flee. We can choose to praise God and thank Him for His mercy and faithfulness. Praise Him because we know He is the answer to all our problems.

When we come to Christ we must by faith believe that our sins were paid in full by His precious Blood. The Bible says He was wounded for our transgressions and He was bruised for our iniquities. The sacrifice was made one time and we don’t have to smite the Rock (Jesus) again. We don’t have to keep going to an altar call for salvation every time we fail. Salvation leads us into the completeness of Christ and we are invited to come boldly the throne of grace when we are weak and struggling. It doesn't matter what your need is today, come to Jesus and begin to speak to Him.

When we fail to appreciate the provision of God and don’t understand where He is leading us, we will go backwards instead of forward. What a tragedy when we don’t see the divine purpose for our life and the Bible becomes a closed book. God provides for us manna from heaven and all the strength we need for our journey. It doesn't matter how difficult our trials become, we are called to go into the Bible and get God's vision for our lives because it will strengthen you and those around you.

Jesus said that He would rather people were hot or cold than lukewarm. It seems strange that He want us to have none of Him than just a little. The problem with being lukewarm is that you have seen a fiery God and come away unchanged. Prayerlessness, unaffected by the Word and disobedience are a few signs of being lukewarm. There is still good news. Jesus holds nothing back to bring you back to his full plan. A door is open to you for a life on fire for God.
