Who Will Stand?

This morning I was thinking about what we are doing as believers to advance the kingdom. The answer is, I think all we can, and yet we need to do more. Or at least we would like to do more. And here is what I came up with, for now. We have to take a stand. And I found this scripture.

Psalms 47:1 O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
2 For the Lord most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.
3 He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.
4 He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. Selah.
5 God is gone up with a shout, the Lord with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
7 For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.
8 God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
9 The princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God: he is greatly exalted.

And here we see that we need to praise our God. When we do, He puts the enemy under our feet.

Today, when you have an opportunity to think about the kingdom, push back! Take a stand, and praise our God, the Most High! Stand!

Praise
Father, we praise and exalt You as the Most High. We want to stand with You. Help us to stand. Pick us up if we fall. We love and exalt You. Please send to us our deliverance, our healing, and our provision for today. In Jesus’ (Yeshua’s) name. Amen.
