I long for My children to approach Me with joy, thankfulness and gratitude for who I am and what I have done past, present, and future! You have My great and precious promises in My Word to remind you of all that I have in store for you. Thank Me in advance for the answers that are on the way. Live with a sense of joyful expectancy. Believe in My Words for they are life everlasting.
Stop focusing on your circumstances and the evil reports of the 10 spies. Instead, listen to the words of Joshua and Caleb, who believed that through Me they could conquer any enemy. Don't you realize that praise and thanksgiving are mighty weapons in My Kingdom? There is a time to pray and petition, but there is also a time to declare and decree! There is a time to sing songs of praise and thanksgiving and silence your enemy!
Therefore, come before Me, Your Holy God, with shouts of praise, thanking Me regardless of circumstances. For this brings Me great honor and pleasure when My People show and display their trust in Me in word and deed. For the true worshippers will worship Me in Spirit and Truth.
