So when do you praise God? Do you praise Him in the good times or the bad times? Most people love to praise God in the good times. Everything is good. I have the money. I have a job. Life is great. Thanks God for everything that you’ve given me. Most people don’t praise Him when time is bad. You don’t hear people singing I have no money, I have no job, Life is horrible, thanks God for my wonderful stressed out life. You just don’t hear it. The thing is. We need to praise God the same in good times and bad times. Our praise shouldn’t change on how our life is. Does God look down on us in good times and say, “man this is my child. I’m so glad that I made him or her.” Does God look down on us in bad times and say, “this one. I don’t know this one. Nope never heard of them. I don’t remember every making them. Maybe is was a science project that made them.” See God doesn’t care if your are living a life of happiness or sadness. He’s always going to say the same thing. This is my child that I love. He doesn’t wait for us to be having a rough time in our lives for Him to start talking to us. That’s us that does it to Him. He’s always there to talk to us. In good and bad times. It’s us that choose not to say anything to Him until times get rough. When times get rough our praise to God stops and we start to complain about the situation that we are in. Why God? Why did you let this happen!? Does that sound familiar? Well sometimes things happen because we loose that touch with out Father. When we stop praising God we loose that protection from Him. Also sometimes we go through tough times for a learning experience. In any situation we need to always praise God. There’s different way to praise God. Most of us know the easy way and that is by singing. There is plenty of other ways also. You start thanking God for the car that you have. Thank him for the job that you have instead of complaining about it. Thank God for the family you have, no matter how you family status is. I have found out that more I praise God. The better I feel and the better my life becomes. I don’t care anymore what my life looks like, but what God’s word says. That’s why no matter what situation that I am in. I praise God. Because His word says that I am an over comer, That I have more than enough. That I am perfect in every way. So let’s start rejoicing God in the good times and the bad times! Don’t let the devil steal the riches that God has in store for you.
