THE SACRIFICE OF PRAISE


Proverbs 17:22 says that “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones”.  


Bitterness is a weapon that Satan uses to keep us sick. When we are hurt by our friends or loved ones we have a choice—to forgive or get bitter; but bitterness comes at a terrible price. It dries the bones which can mean arthritis and will cause the joy to leave our lives. 


One way to get beyond bitterness and a broken spirit is praise. Praise is the one weapon that defeats Satan every time. He hates it when we praise God in our hard circumstances. He hates it when we praise in the good times. 


It might be a sacrifice of praise. Hebrews 13:15 says, “By him [Jesus] therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.” We are to continually offer this kind of praise to God despite the darts that are thrown at us. 


Are you bitter today? Is there someone that has hurt you, and you are still hanging on to the wounds once inflicted? Forgive that person, and your body will be healthier, and your joy will return. Don’t let those wounds of yesterday cause problems for you today. It isn’t worth holding on to them. Let go, forgive, and experience the flood of joy that forgiveness will bring!  You will feel better, and it releases the other person also when we forgive them!
