Praise Him Always

Psalms 52:9 I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it: and I will wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints.

Praising God is easy when everything is going fine. When the bills are paid, family members are in good health and the job is good, singing praises to God is a sweet thing. But brethren, what are you going to do when the going get tougher daily and it seems God is nowhere to be found even after days of fasting and prayers? What are you going to do in a situation you don't even know how long you are going to wait before He shows up? When friends advise you to abandon God's choice and go the easy logical way, what are you going to do?

It's at this point of no evidence of God's presence, that you have to beat your chest and declare "I will praise thee for ever, because thou hast done it". This is a critical situation of enormous test of our stand in Christ because immediately after this declaration, the psalmist says "and I will wait on thy name; for it is good before thy saints". God expect us , not only wait on , but praise Him while waiting even when we don't know how long we are going to wait. This is because the best option is to wait until He comes and rain victory on us.
In the eyes of the world, waiting on God in the midst of other options might look foolish, for the word of God is foolishness to those that perish but to us it's the power of God (1Cor.1:18). It's this deep understanding and absolute trust in the tangibility and power of God that drives the devil crazy and prove to the world that we are who God says we are. In the midst of it all, never forget to declare like Job"For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:"(Job 19:25 ). When you hold on to this knowledge, the Almighty God will stand for you at the end. Jesus is never late, thus your miracle is not late.

Let's pray together.
Abba Father, thank you for your sovereignty upon every affairs of our lives. We choose to praise you in every situation of life, receive all the glory, honour and adoration, in Jesus name. Amen.
