PRAISE NIGHT 18, APRIL 14TH, 2024

REV CHRIS OYAKHILOME DSC DSC DD

We are gathered today everywhere to honor Him, to give Him praise according to the scriptures

Psalm 147:1 KJV,
Psalm 33:1 KJV

What does He mean by praise is comely? He means praise is customary for the upright, it's the custom of the upright to praise God.

Praise is actually offering thankful homage to God.
Hebrews 13:15 AMPC

Every Christian should be raised to have the custom, the culture of Praise.
The only way you know what true praise is, is just what I shared with you and following what the scriptures tell us.
Praise is a spiritual sacrifice.

Psalm 69:30-31 AMPC
This spiritual sacrifice please God better than material sacrifices.

1 Peter 2:5
The only way you know what is accepted by God is what He already said in His word.
You don't know that a sacrifice is accepted to God by your assumptions, you only know because He is said so.

In the Old Testament, they just couldn't bring to God any sacrifice; you couldn't just say I rear camels and I am going to offer camels as a burnt offerings, He would not take that because He was specific as to what to be used as burnt offerings.
He was specific, He told then what kind of animals to use, they couldn't just offer something because they had it.

In the New Testament, He also specified for us what is True Praise.
We are instructed in His word, informed and taught, and so we use what He's taught us to guide our spirits in offering acceptable sacrifices, spiritual sacrifices of praise to God.

Lift up your hands and thank Him
