Prayer,
Singing and praise By John Chopores Singing and prayer PSA 100:2
Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing. (KJV) (2Chronicles
(21) And
when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the Lord,
and that should praise the [1]beauty
of [2]holiness,
as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the Lord; for his mercy {endureth} for ever. (22) And when they began to sing
and to praise, the Lord set ambushments against the
children of But, this is singing, that praises the
"beauty of holiness", and there is a great "beauty" in
holiness!
PSA 100:4
Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, {and} into his courts with praise: be
thankful unto him, {and} bless his name. (KJV) HEB 13:15
By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that
is, the [3]fruit
of {our} lips giving thanks to his name. (KJV) "In all our prayers we must praise God, and
join hallelujahs with all our hosannas. These are the spiritual sacrifices we
must offer up daily, and upon particular occasions." [JOHN WESLEY.]. Joy and
prayer (Deuteronomy
28:47-48 KJV) (47)
Because thou servedst not the Lord thy God with joyfulness,
and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all {things}; (48)
Therefore shalt thou serve thine
enemies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and
in nakedness, and in want of all {things}: and he shall put a yoke of iron upon
thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.(John 14:13-14 KJV) (13) And
whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may
be glorified in the Son. (14) If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I
will do {it}. Power in the name of Jesus so, Ask in the name of Jesus (John
14:13-14 KJV) (13) And
whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may
be glorified in the Son. (14) If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I
will do {it}. (John
16:23-24 KJV) (23) And
in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whatsoever
ye shall ask the Father in my name, he will give {it} you. (24) Hitherto
have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may
be full. (John
16:26-27 KJV) (26) At
that day ye shall ask in my name: and I say not unto you, that I will
pray the Father for you: (27) For the Father himself loveth
you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I came out from God. (Matthew
28:18-19 KJV) (18) And
Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is
given unto me in heaven and in earth. (19) Go ye therefore, and teach all
nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and
of the Holy Ghost: "In praying in the name of Jesus, we are acting as His representative." [ASP. PAGE. 23.] [1]01927 hadarah
