Mughty Warriors 4 Christ
We are a tri-part being, we consist of Spirit, Soul, body.
We ARE a Spirit being, that has a soul, and lives in a body.
Each part effects the other!
When you open up your mouth, and make a joyful noise unto to Lord, ESPECIALLY coupled with music, you force your mood and emotions to be lifted up!
Because we are an integrated being, consisting of spirit, soul, and body, one can't be heavily engaged in an activity, without it effecting the other part of you.
When you engage in praise and worship, your mood and emotions can't help but be elevated.
King David knew this powerful effect, that's why he said,
I WILL BLESS THE LORD AT ALL TIMES. HIS PRAISE SHALL ALWAYS BE IN MY MOUTH!
If there's any SECRET to living in JOY, VICTORY, PEACE OF MIND, AND POWER; there it is!!!
The KEY, is CONSISTENTCY!
...ALWAYS AND AT ALL TIMES...
The scriptures tell us....that we can speak to ourselves, in psalm, hylms, and spiritual songs, MAKING MELODY in our hearts to the Lord.
This indicates, that we can quietly praise God throughout the day, by having song going on in our heart and head!
Even by having a spiritual song going on in your head all day, you can STAY in high spirits throughout the day without disturbing anyone around you!
The HIGHER and LONGER you stay up in the spirit, the more POSITIVE BENEFITS you will receive in your body.
...the JOY of Lord is your STRENGTH!
Praise not only blesses the heart of God, But YOU also are blessed in the process!
When you press into the activity of praise, and stay there for awhile, praise will pulls you up and out of the natural realm, and takes you into the higher dimension of God's reality!
...and when see things from God's perspective, you get a revelation of God's provisions, promises and power!
Unfortunately, we spend to much of our time on the level of our problems, instead of allowing God's Spirit to lift us up to a place of victory!
Crank-up the music, jump in, and throw yourself into the wind of God's Spirit, and let Him lift you up!
God is the ORIGINATOR of the getting high experience!
He is THE MOST HIGH GOD the Bible tells us!
Everything about God is UP!
He is NEVER DOWN!
The Bible tells us, that we are Spiritually seated together with Christ in Heavenly places.
In the Heavenlies, there's no such thing as problems.
From heavens perspective (where we are spiritually seated together with Christ), all things are beneath and under our feet!
We are ABOVE all the stresses of life.
The problems may be there, but we are soaring HIGH above them, like an airplane gliding ABOVE dark clouds.

No ONE Way Of Praise, Is Better Than The Other: YOU CHOOSE The Way You Want To EXPRESS Yourself To God.
The Scriptures Teaches Us To CONTINUOUSLY, Verbally And/Or Physically Express Our Love, Gratitude, Thankfulness And Appreciation For God!
As You Will See In The Scriptures Below; Praise Can ALWAYS Be SEEN Or HEARD!
Praise Is Something You VERBALIZE, Or Physically DEMONSTRATE To God!
Praise Is Something You DO; Not Just Something You Think In Your Heart!
REAL PRAISE IS AN ACTION YOU DEMONSTRATE, Either Verbally, Or Physically, THAT FLOWS FROM YOUR HEART TO GOD!!!
God Is Going To Either HEAR Your Praise, SEE Your Praise; Or BOTH
