0125 我渴慕你的讚美
覺醒之心的奮興，來自讚美。當你向我獻上高聲讚美時，我要釋放一種隱秘的大能。當我的僕人但以理以充滿信心的嘴唇讚美我時，我的大能就封住了獅子的口。當你把神聖的讚美獻給我，你必看見許多突破，許多仇敵被噤聲。天使正等候聆聽你讚美的合唱；他們與你一同敬畏和驚嘆。要用你口中的高聲讚美啟動天上的能力。
你的讚美是一件無可匹敵的武器，它經由你的憂傷升起；它慶賀你的得勝，向你釋放力量。它使你看得清楚，因為它揭去不信的陰影。讚美是勇敢的，是憑信心涌流的喜樂；當仇敵用謊言攻擊你時，讚美就是對真理的宣告。讚美是聖潔捨棄自我之祭——在我眼中是蒙悅納的供物，比金錢、時間或才幹更重要，我要你的讚美；因為在你的讚美中，榮耀降臨。
“以跳舞破繭而出！以擊鼓旋律製造音樂歌唱讚美神！因為祂以祂忠信愛人們為樂。祂以祂的美麗裝飾謙卑人，且祂喜愛賜給他們勝利。—— 詩篇 149:3–4
0125 I desire your praises.
The revival of awakened hearts comes through praise. I will release a secret power when you bring high praises to me. When my servant Daniel praised me with his faith-filled lips, my power shut the mouths of lions. You will see many breakthroughs and many enemies silenced as you bring your sacred praises to me. Angels are waiting to hear your chorus of praise. They join you in awe and wonder. Activate the power of heaven by the high praise of your lips.
Your praise is a weapon that has no rival. It rises through your sorrow. It celebrates your victory. It releases strength to you. It causes you to see clearly because it unveils the shadows of disbelief. Praise is courageous. It is joy that flows by faith. It is a declaration of truth when the enemy hits you with lies. It is a sacrifice of holy abandon—a pleasing offering in my sight. More than money or time or talents, I desire your praises. For in your praise, the glory descends.
Break forth with dancing! Make music and sing God’s praises with the rhythm of drums! For he enjoys his faithful lovers. He adorns the humble with his beauty and he loves to give them the victory. — PSALM 149:3-4
