THIS week, I will show you another thing you can do to make your breakthrough a reality, before the year ends. It is to engage the ever-winning force of praise.

In our context here, I define praise as an ever-winning force in times of adversity. What makes praise an ever-winning force?

When you praise God, He comes down to your situation with His spiritual manifestations, and your turning point becomes a reality. According to the Bible, there was a time Paul and Silas were imprisoned. They praised God and strange things began to happen — the foundation of the prison was shaken, their chains got broken and the gate flung open. As they praised God, He came down on the scene for their deliverance (Acts 16:25).

The Bible narrates how Jesus gave thanks, five loaves of bread and two fishes multiplied supernaturally and He fed 5,000 people. At the end, the remnants filled 12 baskets! Always give God thanks and praise and you will enjoy supernatural multiplication.

Let me show you some virtues of praise. Praise brings favour. An encounter with God is worth much more than a life time of efforts. Desperately desire an encounter with God as you thank and praise Him, so that every work of the enemy in your life is flushed out. Any form of misfortune will become history in your life! Your high praise is the switch that turns God on in your favour.

Also, praise brings promotion. Do you want your promotion to become a reality before the year ends? Then praise is your way out of stagnation. God will command every siege that is sitting on your lifting to be broken. There is a breakthrough for you today, as you praise your way out of poverty, misfortune, stagnation, sickness and disease. Your high praise is the covenant high way to your high place (Habakkuk 3:17-19). I am a regular beneficiary of the virtues of praise because praise has become my way of life for long.

Friend, you can engage the ever-winning force of praise to make your breakthrough a reality, if you are God’s child. You become one by confessing and accepting Jesus as your Saviour and Lord. If you are ready for it, say this prayer: Lord, Jesus, I come to You today. I am a sinner. Forgive me my sins. Today, I accept You as my Lord and Saviour. Thank You Jesus for saving me! Now I know I am born again!
