(1)Psalms  100:4 Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.(kjv)

When God created us He put in us a heart of praise

Lets read it
**Isaiah  43:21 This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.(kjv)**

For futher reading (psalms8:2,)

**1 Peter  2:9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:(kjv)**

If you are not praiseful its either  you are alive or you are satanic


**WHAT IS PRAISE OR WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO GIVE PRAISE**

1. To give praise means to give approval or admiration to someone or something
2. To give praise means to express respect and gratitude or to be grateful
3. It means to make positive statement about a perso, oblect or idea either in public or privately
4. To gossip about His love,goodness 
5. To celebrate,hail,to talk positively of His strengths, command and to give thanks

Your praise is a proof that you are still alive 

Your praise is a proof that you want to remain alive

When you praise you glorify God 

When you praise you magnify God

When you praise you give house  to God

When you praise you God, you mock the devil

To be unpraiseful is to be ungrateful
And as long as you are ungrateful,greatness is far from you
Hey brethren, NEVER HOLD BACK YOUR PRAISE

**THE OPPOSITE OF PRAISE**

1.Blame (finding fault). To be full of blame is to remain lame.
When you are always finding wh or what to blame you will do mothing about your lame situation

2. Murmur/Complain
when you are always complaining pike Judas your live can never be plain
Hey brethren stop finding fault with God 
**God is never faulty**

**when you praise,you inhabit God and desert the devil

3. Flattery
**God is alredy all you will want to praise Him to be**
Flattery don't matter, because flattries don't last 

You praise for who God is 

You praise for what God has done

You praise for what He says He will do

You praise for what you wnt Him to do

**WAYS WE CAN PRAISE GOD**
Through songs of praise
Hand claps of praise
Shout of praise 
Dance of praise
Standing ovation
Laughter
Musical instruments

**All these must be done in the spirit**

You can't lift God up and be down at the same time

**WHEN YOU PRAISE THE PRESS WILL SOON CARRY THE NEWS BUT MURMUR ENDS IN MOURNING**

There is no such thing as mournful praise rather its tears of joy
