This Is The day that the Lord has made We will rejoice and be glad in it:
You Know this may seem like a hard thing but with practice and time it comes easy.
The Bible says that Praise is comely to the upright. I will never forget one day when I was feeling down and I was sitting on my sofa focusing on what I was going thru and that scripture came to my spirit....I am not trying to be deep just real. When I thought about that, I said to myself..I am upright so that means that I should be praising God....right?..yes...Hallelujah!!. At fist I wasn't but the word of Christ is a mirror and when I saw what i wasn't doing that I began to do it. The flesh will constantly tug and pull at you and gnaw at you very soul but if you don't use, the SWORD of the spirit which is the word of God(Ephesians's 6:17) you will always be defeated.the weakness and disinterest you may feel and lack of strength is because you are not spiritually built up.
To praise God is sometimes a consistent battle , it takes alot of faith to look past how you feel and what we see and choose to believe God. Just because you don't "Feel" like it doesn't mean you don't do. God's word is true speak until you believe it. It takes perseverance lots of it and strength and the power of God. this is how it works(do it all even when you don't feel like it this will help build your spiritual muscle)the word of God says that the,Kingdom of God is not in word but in power 1corinthians4:20. God not only looks at what we say but mostly at what we do.

We have to understand that we wrestle not against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers and rulers of darkness and spiritual wickedness in high places Ephesians 6:12. The enemy of our souls wants us to constantly focus on ourselves and our problems this my friend is self worship idol worship, you are making your self a god and Jesus says that he will have no other gods before him. we as Christians have to understand that this is the only weapon that satan understand along with worship and a pure clean life.
*****please note you cannot live how you want to live and talk about i will just praise God anyway it doesn't work like that. your life must line up with the word of God. To be safe anything that God does not agree with and that is not in agreement with his word is sin.*****
A sword is used to cut and destroy use the spiritual sword. you can not fight satan with flesh he is a spirit you have to fight with the word of God. remember the word of God is quick and powerful sharper than a twoedged sword.
So Let the High praise of God be in your mouth and a twodeged sword in your hand Psalm 149:6. Use it to fight the good fight of faith lay hold on eternal life 1timothy6:12
