Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord from the heavens; Praise Him in the heights! Praise Him, all His angels; Praise Him, all His hosts! Praise Him; sun and moon; Praise Him, you heavens of heavens, And you waters above the heavens! Psalm 148 NKJV

The psalmist calls on the heavens and the earth to praise the Lord.

The God of the bible rules over heaven and earth. That does not mean there is no opposition to His authority.

There are human beings who oppose God’s authority. Some of that opposition is due to our sinful nature. The fallen nature of mankind resulted from the spiritual battle taking place in the spiritual realm between spiritual beings.

The devil led one third of the angels in rebellion against God. That battle still rages.

There will come a day when perfect peace will reign throughout the heavens!

God will be praised from the heights of creation. All the angels will praise Jesus. All the heavenly hosts will bow down to Jesus. There will be no place in all of creation where our God does not receive the praise, honor and glory He is worthy to receive!

Praise the Lord from the earth, You great sea creatures and all the depths; Fire and hail, snow and clouds; Stormy wind, fulfilling His word; Mountains and all hills; Fruitful trees and all cedars; Beasts and all cattle; Creeping things and flying fowl; Kings of the earth; Both young men and maidens; Old men and children. Vs 7-12

When the battle in the heavens goes quiet all opposition to our God will end on earth. All living things and creation itself will praise God! Our spirits will be caught up in the pristine glory ringing from one corner of creation to the other! We will know true intimacy with Jesus in a way we cannot imagine today!

And He has exalted the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints-Of the children of Israel, A people near to Him. Praise the Lord! Vs 14

In the millennial reign of Christ His people will rule and reign with Jesus!

We will not be influenced by the rebellious and fallen. Jesus will reign in our hearts, minds, perfected bodies and souls. It will be an existence no man or women can describe or comprehend today. And it will never end!

Praise Jesus today for what you have today! You have His love and blessing! Praise Him for the future He promised to people who love Him today. Do it morning noon and night every day!

Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!

Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune telling. This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her. And he came out that very hour. Acts 16:16-18 NKJV

The slave girl was speaking the truth. She was possessed by an evil spirit. The evil spirit was drawing people away from Christ!

This attack came as God’s servants went to prayer. The enemy of our souls attacks when we step out in faith. Satan seeks to distract us. He wants us to focus our attention on things other than Jesus.

The devil perverts the truth. He uses it against us. No one can serve two masters. This girl was speaking the truth about Paul and his companions while practicing witchcraft. When people claim to speak for God we must consider how they live.

The girl followed the disciples for several days before they cast the demon out of her. It is important for us to wait on the Lord before stepping out in faith. The bible tells us Paul was greatly annoyed by this girl. Paul was not fearful. The Lord was with Him!

Paul and Silas were put in jail. The owners of the slave girl were angry at the loss of income when the demon was cast out of her. While Paul and Silas were in jail they shared the gospel with the jailer. His entire household was saved.

God uses Satan’s attacks for His glory and our salvation!

Satan is a real being. He takes people captive to do his will. There really are demons who seek to destroy God’s people and bring destruction to our world.

We have nothing to fear from the devil or his demons when we live according to God’s will. We have nothing to fear from anyone or anything when we step out in faith to serve Jesus!

Jesus wants us to fear Him and Him alone. He wants us to know His power and authority are unequaled in all of creation.

God wants you share the gospel of Jesus Christ with the people in your life. Jesus wants you to walk in great boldness because He is with you everywhere you go!

Jesus can use you to shake the foundations of the prison and set people free!

Praise Jesus today for what you have today. You have His love and blessing!
