How to CREATE a PRAISE village

 

Galatians 2:20

King James Version

20 I am crucified with Christ: 

nevertheless I live; 

yet not I, 

but Christ liveth in me: 

and the life which I now live in the flesh 

I live by the faith of the Son of God, 

who loved me, 

and gave himself for me.

Start with self. 

You cannot create a PRAISE village, unless you start with self.

By seeking GOD first.

By humbling yourself before Him.

By being born again.

By being stripped of sin.

JESUS showed us how.

Through His perfect obedience.

We can only know GOD, through JESUS.

John 17:3

King James Version

3 And this is life eternal, 

that they might know thee the only true God, 

and Jesus Christ, 

whom thou hast sent.

For JESUS is the WAY.

John 14:6

King James Version

6 Jesus saith unto him, 

I am the way, 

the truth, 

and the life: 

no man cometh unto the Father, 

but by me.

Without JESUS, we can do nothing.

John 15:5

King James Version

5 I am the vine, 

ye are the branches: 

He that abideth in me, 

and I in him, 

the same bringeth forth much fruit: 

for without me ye can do nothing.

As born again, we are gifted with GOD's SPIRIT.

Through the SPIRIT of GOD, we can know JESUS.

SPIRIT will teach us GOD's TRUTH.

SPIRIT will make Scripture easy to understand.

How else was I able to produce a body of work, unless SPIRIT taught me?

By myself, I wouldn't know where to begin.

Following the ways of the world produces corrupt creations.

But if we have the SPIRIT of GOD in us -- as born again -- results will differ.

When you want to know ultimate truth, GOD will show up.

When your heart is ready to repent, GOD will definitely show up.

When He makes you born again, all become clear, through SPIRIT.

That's how PRAISE village came to fruition, two days ago.

It started with an idea planted by SPIRIT.

After that, there was no stopping SPIRIT.

We create PRAISE village, as we go along.

Do you want to create such a village?

Then, START with self.

REVIEW how you have defied God, and deified other gods.

SEEK GOD with ALL your heart.

PRAY to know about GOD.

What does PRAISE mean?

 

Psalm 150:6

King James Version

6 Let every thing that hath breath 

praise the Lord. 

Praise ye the Lord.

What does praising GOD mean?

How do we praise the LORD?

As always, I turn to Scripture:

Psalm 9:1-2

King James Version

9 I will praise thee, 

O Lord, 

with my whole heart; 

I will shew forth all thy marvellous works.

2 I will be glad and rejoice in thee: 

I will sing praise to thy name, 

O thou most High.

Psalm 24:8-10

King James Version

8 Who is this King of glory? 

The Lord strong and mighty, 

the Lord mighty in battle.

9 Lift up your heads, 

O ye gates; 

even lift them up, 

ye everlasting doors; 

and the King of glory shall come in.

10 Who is this King of glory? 

The Lord of hosts, 

he is the King of glory. 

Selah.

Psalm 95:1-3

King James Version

95 O come, 

let us sing unto the Lord: 

let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.

2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, 

and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

3 For the Lord is a great God, 

and a great King above all gods.

Psalm 103:1-4

King James Version

103 Bless the Lord, 

O my soul: 

and all that is within me, 

bless his holy name.

2 Bless the Lord, 

O my soul, 

and forget not all his benefits:

3 Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; 

who healeth all thy diseases;

4 Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; 

who crowneth thee with lovingkindness 

and tender mercies;

Psalm 150:1-5

King James Version

150 Praise ye the Lord. 

Praise God in his sanctuary: 

praise him in the firmament of his power.

2 Praise him for his mighty acts:

 praise him according to his excellent greatness.

3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: 

praise him with the psaltery and harp.

4 Praise him with the timbrel and dance: 

praise him with stringed instruments and organs.

5 Praise him upon the loud cymbals: 

praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.

Isaiah 25:1

King James Version

25 O Lord, 

thou art my God; 

I will exalt thee, 

I will praise thy name; 

for thou hast done wonderful things; 

thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.

John 17:1-4

King James Version

17 These words spake Jesus, 

and lifted up his eyes to heaven, 

and said, 

Father, 

the hour is come; 

glorify thy Son, 

that thy Son also may glorify thee:

2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, 

that he should give eternal life 

to as many as thou hast given him.

3 And this is life eternal, 

that they might know thee the only true God, 

and Jesus Christ, 

whom thou hast sent.

4 I have glorified thee on the earth: 

I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

Colossians 3:16

King James Version

16 Let the word of Christ 

dwell in you richly in all wisdom; 

teaching and admonishing one another 

in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, 

singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.

Hebrews 13:15

King James Version

15 By him therefore let us offer 

the sacrifice of praise to God continually, 

that is, 

the fruit of our lips 

giving thanks to his name.

James 5:13

King James Version

13 Is any among you afflicted? 

let him pray. 

Is any merry? 

let him sing psalms.

Now, you know why this fallen world could use a PRAISE village.

To praise GOD means, we thank GOD.

For His love, and all the blessings He has bestowed upon us.

Even when things seem to go wrong.

Everything is for GOD's purpose.

Does a PRAISE village exist?

 

Psalm 37:4

King James Version

4 Delight thyself also in the Lord: 

and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

Is there such a thing as a PRAISE village in the world?

I doubt it.

It's being created in my heart by SPIRIT, as we go along.

It is the born-again ideal, for such a village.

But I do know these:

Romans 3:23

King James Version

23 For all have sinned, 

and come short of the glory of God;

Isaiah 64:8

King James Version

8 But now, 

O Lord, 

thou art our father; 

we are the clay, 

and thou our potter; 

and we all are the work of thy hand.

Mark 1:15

King James Version

15 And saying, 

The time is fulfilled, 

and the kingdom of God is at hand: 

repent ye, 

and believe the gospel.

Romans 12:2

King James Version

2 And be not conformed to this world: 

but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, 

that ye may prove what is that good, 

and acceptable, 

and perfect, 

will of God.

By ourselves, we can't make it, unless we attribute everything to JESUS.

John 15:5

King James Version

5 I am the vine, 

ye are the branches: 

He that abideth in me, 

and I in him, 

the same bringeth forth much fruit: 

for without me ye can do nothing.

JESUS said we must be born again.

John 3:5-7

King James Version

5 Jesus answered, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, 

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; 

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, 

Ye must be born again.

We must walk with SPIRIT.

Galatians 5:16-17

King James Version

16 This I say then, 

Walk in the Spirit, 

and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.

17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, 

and the Spirit against the flesh: 

and these are contrary the one to the other: 

so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

We must believe in the LORD JESUS.

John 14:1

King James Version

14 Let not your heart be troubled: 

ye believe in God, 

believe also in me.

Only then can such a village exist.

Why do so many villages fail?

They don't believe in GOD.

They don't believe in JESUS.

They are not born again.

They are not being taught by the HOLY SPIRIT.

They don't live by Scripture.

They are full of pride, lust, and greed.

It's time to create a PRAISE village.

As SPIRIT would have it.

A VILLAGE that PRAYS

 

The LORD JESUS said:

Matthew 6:5-6

King James Version

5 And when thou prayest, 

thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: 

for they love to pray standing in the synagogues 

and in the corners of the streets, 

that they may be seen of men. 

Verily I say unto you, 

They have their reward.

6 But thou, 

when thou prayest, 

enter into thy closet, 

and when thou hast shut thy door, 

pray to thy Father which is in secret; 

and thy Father which seeth in secret 

shall reward thee openly.

The PRAISE village is a born-again concept, straight from SPIRIT.

Using the ideas He gave me.

Using the WORD of GOD in my heart.

Using all the experiences and research I have.

It is a village that prays.

That worships GOD alone.

The faithful acknowledge the gospel of JESUS CHRIST.

1 Corinthians 15:1-4

King James Version

15 Moreover, brethren, 

I declare unto you the gospel 

which I preached unto you, 

which also ye have received, 

and wherein ye stand;

2 By which also ye are saved, 

if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, 

unless ye have believed in vain.

3 For I delivered unto you first of all 

that which I also received, 

how that Christ died for our sins 

according to the scriptures;

4 And that he was buried, 

and that he rose again the third day 

according to the scriptures:

The villagers live according to GOD's laws.

The village is a daily exercise in living by faith.

The villagers are all born again.

John 3:5-7

King James Version

5 Jesus answered, 

Verily, verily, I say unto thee, 

Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, 

he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; 

and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, 

Ye must be born again.

They live, and work, for the GLORY of GOD.

Why is it important to have a PRAISE village?

The DAY of the LORD draws near.

It's all preparation now.

We must focus on JESUS, not the ways of the world.

We must teach our children, and each other, the ways of GOD.

And that's through living by the Bible, following GOD's statutes.

Colossians 3:1-2

King James Version

3 If ye then be risen with Christ, 

seek those things which are above, 

where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

2 Set your affection on things above, 

not on things on the earth.
