0907 讚美將門打開
與我同行在讚美的大道上，我必除去你的不信。你曾求要有更大的信心，我必應允，但這要求你凡事都要行在感恩的心態當中。親愛的，信心與抱怨無法共存。你要麼擁有極大的信心和感恩，要麼充滿懷疑和抱怨。選擇讚美吧，你必看見你的信心增長。
與我同行在讚美的大道上，那些曾禁錮你的監獄之門將會為你豁然敞開，正如它們為保羅和西拉所成就的一樣。你的讚美如同榮耀的入口，將你的心意與我的心意相連。它使你能夠像我一樣去思考，並以天國清晰的視角去看。讚美，在等候之中領受信心已然成就之工，它洋溢着生命，這生命不會因逆境的壓制而被扼殺【歸於沉默】。當為我所做的一切而歡欣，尤其在你憑天然的肉眼無法看見的時候。讚美會將你提升到更高之處；讚美會除去不信的蒙蔽。
保羅和西拉毫不畏懼，在半夜禱告並唱詩讚美神，所有其他的囚犯都在聽他們的敬拜。忽然，一場巨大的地震震動了監牢的根基，霎時間，所有監牢的門一下子全都開了，所有囚犯的鎖鏈也都鬆開了。——使徒行傳 16:25–26
0907 Praise opens the door
Walk with me on the highway of praise, and I will remove your unbelief. You have asked for greater faith. I will grant it, but it requires that you walk in the spirit of gratitude for all things. Faith and complaining cannot live together, my beloved. You will either have great faith and gratitude, or you will have great doubt and complaining. Choose to praise, and watch as your faith increases.
Walk with me on the highway of praise, and the prison doors that have held you back will fling wide open, just as they did for Paul and Silas. Your praise is like a portal of glory that connects your will to mine. It enables you to think like me and to see with the clarity of heaven’s perspective. Praise receives the finished work of faith in the midst of waiting. It is teeming with life that is not silenced by contrary circumstances. Rejoice in all that I’m doing, especially when you cannot see it with your natural eyes. Praise will lift you higher. Praise will remove the shroud of unbelief.
Paul and Silas, undaunted, prayed in the middle of the night and sang songs of praise to God, while all the other prisoners listened to their worship. Suddenly, a great earthquake shook the foundations of the prison. All at once every prison door flung open and the chains of all the prisoners came loose. –Acts 16:25-26
