Let's consider some men of strong faith
Let’s consider some men of strong faith, and their praise to God.
Abraham was praising God in the midst of persisting childlessness and worsening health conditions. Any problem that cannot stop your praise, your praise will stop that problem.
Joshua and the Israelites praised God when confronted with walls and barriers. “So the people shouted when the priest blew with the trumpets: and it came to pass, when the people heard the sound of the trumpet, and the people shouted with a great shout, that the wall fell down flat” (Joshua 6:20)
Hannah. “And they rose up in the morning early and worshiped before the LORD ... and Elkanah knew Hannah his wife: and the LORD remembered her” (1 Samuel 1:19).
The Apostles were praising God in the face of harsh persecution. “And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name” (Acts 5:41)
Job. “Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head and fell down upon the ground and worshipped” (Job 1:20). He praised God despite gross tragedy and losses.
Jehoshaphat. “... and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army and to say praise the Lord; for his mercy endureth forever” (2nd Chronicles 20:21). They praised God in the face of battles.
Faith praises Cod irrespective of feelings. Men of faith, grow spiritually in the face of persecution through the force of their faith and praise.
