THE TRUE SACRIFICE OF PRAISE

Over time, we’ve come to understand what praise means to us and to God.  Thanks to our man of God. But now the true sacrifice of praise ! Hmmmm

In our previous articles, we explained that just as the priest offered sacrifices of burnt offerings and incense in the Old Testament, today, we offer sacrifices of praise to God with the fruit of our lips, which are the words we speak in praise and thanksgiving to the Lord.

The sacrifice of praise transcends superficial statements like, “Lord, I thank you for everything.”

For it to be a true sacrifice of praise to God, it must be mixed with substance from your spirit; you must have definite reasons for praising Him and then voice those reasons.

If I said to you, “Thank you for cleaning the house so well,” I’ve praised you.

In the same vein, praising God means giving Him thanks in the Name of Jesus for specific reasons. The sacrifices of praise are confessions, declarations, psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs that you render to Him for His love, grace, and goodness towards you.

They also refer to tributes or speeches that acknowledge and celebrate the character, the greatness of the Lord.

These confessions (or professions) of who He is are rendered by the fruits and calves of our lips.
