2. A
PROBLEM
CALLED
PRAISE

3. Sing, sing a song
Sing out loud, sing out strong
Sing of good things not bad
Sing of happy not sad
Sing, sing a song
Make it simple
To last your whole life long
Don't worry that it's not good enough
For anyone else to hear
Just sing, sing a song
The songs that we sing
express the condition
of our heart.
The songs that we sing make
a strong prophetic
declaration of where we
want to be.
PRAISE can be a PROBLEM
for your PROBLEM

4. O sing to the LORD a new song, For He has
done wonderful things, His right hand and His
holy arm have gained the victory for Him.
Psalm

5. Every song of praise and
worship brings joy to God
and glorifies Him above all.
Every new song of praise
and worship refreshes our
soul, strengthens our spirit
and declares gratitude
to God.

6. When the trumpets sounded, the army
shouted, and at the sound of the trumpet, when
the men gave a loud shout, the wall collapsed;
so everyone charged straight in, and they took
the city.
Joshua

7. Whenever the spirit from God came on Saul,
David would take up his lyre and play. Then
relief would come to Saul; he would feel better,
and the evil spirit would leave him.
Samuel

8. Paul and Silas

9. 25 Along about midnight, Paul and Silas were at
prayer and singing a robust hymn to God. The
other prisoners couldn’t believe their ears. 26
Then, without warning, a huge earthquake! The
jailhouse tottered, every door flew open, all the
prisoners were loose.
Acts
strong
after every shaking,
there is freedom

10. 27 Startled from sleep, the jailer saw all the
doors swinging loose on their hinges. Assuming
that all the prisoners had escaped, he pulled out
his sword and was about to do himself in,
figuring he was as good as dead anyway, when
28 Paul stopped him: “Don’t do that! We’re all still
here! Nobody’s run away!”
Acts

11. 29 The jailer got a torch and ran inside. Badly
shaken, he collapsed in front of Paul and Silas.
30 He led them out of the jail and asked, “Sirs,
what do I have to do to be saved, to really live?”
31 They said, “Put your entire trust in the Master
Jesus. Then you’ll live as you were meant to
live—and everyone in your house included!”
Acts

12. 32 They went on to spell out in detail the story of
the Master—the entire family got in on this part.
They never did get to bed that night. The jailer
made them feel at home, dressed their wounds,
and then—he couldn’t wait till morning!—was
baptized, he and everyone in his family.
Acts

13. FOUR THINGS
ABOUT PRAISE

14. PRAISE has no
PLACE.
1

15. When you don’t praise God
in the wilderness, you will
not worship Him in the
Promise Land.
You can always praise God
anywhere at anytime.

16. PRAISE has a
PURPOSE.
2

17. Finding the purpose of
every problem will lead you
to praise God more.

18. PRAISE comes
with a PRICE.
3

19. Sacrifice becomes a
sweet aroma that is
pleasing to the Lord.
Obedience intensifies the fire.

20. PRAISE is more
than a PRIZE.
4

21. PRAISE has to overcome
your PREFERENCE.
Every time you open your
mouth to praise God, it
shakes the gates of hell and
breaks every chain.

22. I bless God every chance I get; my lungs
expand with his praise. 2 I live and breathe God;
if things aren’t going well, hear this and be
happy:
Psalms

23. TWO REASONS
TO PRAISE GOD

24. Because
Hes already
done more than
you think He has
1

25. 2
Because
Hes going to do
more than you
think Hes going
to do

26. 20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly
abundantly above all that we ask or think,
according to the power that works in us.
Ephesians

27. 32 They went on to spell out in detail the story of
the Master—the entire family got in on this part.
They never did get to bed that night. The
jailer made them feel at home, dressed their
wounds, and then—he couldn’t wait till
morning!—was baptized, he and everyone in his
family.
Acts

28. PRAISE reflects a
grateful heart.
Thankfulness fuels our
praise and worship.
Thankfulness means SING
and SURRENDER.
(“You can have it all, Lord!)

29. TALK IT
OVER

30.  How could praise help you deal with
a problem you’re facing?
 What has God done in your life that
you need to praise Him for?
 What steps will you take to live in an
attitude of praise every day?

31. CONCLUSION

32. Every time we praise God
we position ourselves
for victory.
