Time for a Praise Party

Whenever you feel discouraged or depressed–instead of racing to your “pity party,”–have a “Praise Party” instead. No matter what problem you are facing, or how bad it is . . . someone else has it worse than you do! There are all kinds of people who suffer hardships such as; being homeless, without friends or family, battered and beaten, thrown in prison although they are innocent and even those in pain, without food or shelter –who in spite of their dismal circumstances–joyfully praise Jesus! Praising Jesus is the very best cure for depression! Start your “Praise Party,” by counting your blessings, beginning with the best blessing of all–having a Lord and Savior who died so that you might live with Him in heaven for all eternity! The Bible says in 2 Samuel 22:4, “I called to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and have been saved from my enemies.” Once you begin praising Jesus, it won’t be long before all those dark discouraged thoughts fade away and your heart will sing. In Psalm 30:11, it says,“Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness.” Cancel your pity party for it’s time for a “Praise Party,” thanking Jesus for His many blessings and don’t forget to praise Him for being such an awesome God!  Text: Psalm 95:1-6, Psalm 23:1-4, Isaiah 41:10, Philippians 4:19

Bible Texts:
Psalm 95:1-6 NKJV - Oh come, let us sing to the LORD! Let us shout joyfully to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before His presence with thanksgiving; Let us shout joyfully to Him with psalms. For the LORD is the great God, And the great King above all gods. In His hand are the deep places of the earth; The heights of the hills are His also. The sea is His, for He made it; And His hands formed the dry land. Oh come, let us worship and bow down; Let us kneel before the LORD our Maker. 

Psalm 23:1-4 NKJV - A Psalm of David. The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. 

Isaiah 41:10 NKJV - Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.' 

Philippians 4:19 NKJV - And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
