Day 13: god speaks through praise and worship
READ IT
Psalm 150:1-2
“Praise the Lord! Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens! Praise him for his mighty deeds; praise him according to his excellent greatness!”
TAKE IT TO HEART
God will speak directly to your heart through praise and worship. Fill your ears with praise music and let the voice of God speak truth to your heart. The words of worship music are filled with Scripture and with truth. When those words are put with music, they reach beyond our minds and into our hearts.
"Music is the language of the soul."
When fighting spiritual battles, create a "battle songs" playlist on your favorite music platform. A friend shared her battle songs playlist with me, and as I played those truth-songs into the empty spaces in my day, I started embracing the truth of my situation. It wasn't long before I made a battle list of my own.
This is one of the best ways to fight spiritual battles. I cannot tell you how often I jump on my bike and shout to the words of Glorious Unfolding by Steven Curtis Chapman
....take a rest from the fight, don't try to figure it out, just listen to what I'm whispering to your heart...
And then sing right along with Lauren Daigle in Rescue.
...you are not hopeless, you have been broken, your innocence stolen, I hear you whisper underneath your breath, I hear your SOS, your SOS, I will send out an army to find you in the middle of the darkness…
What are some of your favorite worship songs? Spend time bathing in the music as you praise and worship God today.

PRAY FOR THESE THINGS TODAY:
- God is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent. Spend some time telling God how you have experienced these aspects of His nature.
- Lord, who needs encouragement with music today? Wait…until you have a name. Ask God what praise song would encourage them. Find it and share it with them via text.
- Continue to pray for those who’ve suffered catastrophic loss in the hurricanes. Ask God to increase the momentum He’s given the Church to respond to these disasters. If you haven’t already donated to relief efforts, do so today.
