Dual Power for Every Duel

UV3660/10000 Dual Power for Every Duel Let the high praise of God be in their throats, and a two-edged sword in their hands, Psalm 149 v 6 The godly should exult or enjoy praising God. The praise of God is always in their throats and is its very lubricant. Not ordinary praise but high praise, praise of all the extraordinary things God has done, created, redeemed. The wonderful ways He has blessed and saved us. We rejoice or exult in Him as our Maker, our King or Ruler, our Father, our Saviour. As we humble ourselves unlike the rest of humanity to worship and acknowledge Him in every way, every day, every moment, He beautifies our lives with His salvation. He takes pleasure or delights in us as a father in His obedient and grateful children. The praise we give to the Lord is reserved for Him alone. The two -edged sword that brings life is the Word. We are to grip the Word with both our hands. We are to be in the word and of the word, not of the world. The word is to be studied and applied in all aspects of our lives. Like the volunteer army of builders of Nehemiah, we hold the tools of our respective professions in one hand and the two edged sword of the spirit in our other hand. One edge is meant to bind the kings of darkness with spiritual chains to keep these forces from perpetuating evil, to execute judgement on their executives and restrain them from their acts of wickedness. The other edge is meant to set us free from our own chains and fetters, to train us in godliness and righteousness, to equip us for every work that God has called us to do. When we do the above, our intentions, thoughts and words are primed to do the work of the Lord in this world. The word that is bitter in our mouths will become sweet as nectar in our stomachs. The word in our mouths will be like an unsheathed sword. At the end of each day, we can look back and sing for joy as we lie on our beds, reflecting on the day(s) gone by. We will be able to execute the will of God on earth, we will fulfill the purpose for which we were brought into being. The power of praise and the dual edged power of the sword is to be witnessed at work in our lives, every single day. In praise and the word, we have dual power to use in every duel we face in life.
