Seeds Of Destiny Devotional For 27th June 2025 – Raised by Praise

Scriptures make it clear that praise is a raiser or lifter of people.

We could summarize our anchor scripture to read thus: “Even if nothing is working yet I will praise the Lord, and he will guard my feet like a hind’s feet and make me to walk upon my high places.”

Beloved, if the devil cannot shut your mouth in praise, he cannot limit your rise in life. Throughout the scripture we see people who were highly lifted in their generation at the frequency of praise.

For example, King David was someone who got highly placed at the frequency of his lifestyle of praise and worship. King David was called the sweet psalmist of Israel (2Samuel 23:1): Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse said, and the man who was raised up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel…

By being a sweet psalmist, a worshipper, a praise worshipper, David was lifted in life.

Beloved, if the enemy wants to keep you in the pit, he will close your mouth to praise. If the enemy wants to keep you on the floor, he attacks your praise life. David, the sweet psalmist of Israel was lifted to the high places of life at the frequency of his praise. It was David who said in Psalm 119:164, Seven times a day do I praise thee because of thy righteous judgments. No wonder Saul could not stop his rise. The Amalekites could not stop his rise. The Philistines could not stop his rise. His own son, Absalom, who rose against him, could not prevent his rise.

Now, how does praise raise people?

1. Praise establishes the Presence of God around the life of the praiser; (Psalm 22:3), and the presence of God is a lifter of men. In Genesis 39:2-5, Potiphar placed Joseph above everything, made him oversee everything because the Lord was with Joseph (Genesis 39:21).
2. Praise unleashes Divine favour on the praiser. And what would favour do? Psalm 89:17 says, For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted. So, when God’s favour is on you, exaltation is your portion.

Remember this: If the enemy wants to keep you on the floor, he attacks your praise life.

ASSIGNMENT (S):

1. Praise God daily
2. Reject the spirit of depression; Praise is your winning strategy even when things seem not to be working.

PRAYER: Thank You Lord for the gift of Life. Thank You Lord for the garment of praise instead of the spirit of heaviness. Thank You Lord for all You have done for me, and for all You will yet do. Be glorified, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
