The Holy Bible
teaches us how to DOUBLE attack our problems and to defeat them. Psalm 63 is a Psalm
of David when he was in the wilderness of Judea. David was in the cave of
Adullam with all the members of the "3-D Club"—everyone who was in
DISTRESS, and everyone who was in DEBT, and everyone who was DISCONTENTED
(bitter of soul). There were about 400 of them; and David became captain of
them.
The prophet Gad warned
David to leave there and go to the land of Judah, so David went into the forest
of Hareth (1 Samuel 22:5). Psalm 63:3 says, "Because your loving kindness
is better than life, my lips shall praise you."
The Hebrew word
for "praise" used in this passage is "shabach" and means "to address in a loud tone”, and also
"to pacify." It is found 11 times in the Tanakh (Hebrew Old Testament). In eight of those passages it is
used to express PRAISE. In the other three, it is used in passages to STILL,
such as concerning the calming of the sea (Psalm 65:7; Psalm 89:9) and also of
calming or quieting things within a person's heart (Proverbs 29:11). "Shabach" means "to praise, to
still, to triumph." You can praise with words, you can calm with words,
and you can triumph with words.
FIRST, use
praise!
The Bible teaches
that God inhabits, or dwells in, the praises of His people. Literally he
"makes his house" in the praise of His people. "But You are holy,
You that inhabits the praises of Israel" (Psalm 22:3). When you praise
God, you are creating an atmosphere for God to invade your situation!
Also, if it is a
situation where someone is angry with you (justly or unjustly), ask God to turn
the situation around and claim this promise from His Word. "Surely the wrath
of man will praise You: [and] the remainder of wrath You will restrain"
(Psalm76:10). Pray, and ask God to make the person's wrath PRAISE God. Then ask
God to restrain the remainder of the wrath! I have done this many times in my
life and I have NEVER seen it to fail. God has always honoured His Word!
SECOND, do what
Jesus did!
In the Brit
Chadashah (Hebrew New Testament) at Mark 4:36-39 we read:
And when they had
sent away the multitude, they took Him [Jesus] as He was in the ship. And there
was also with Him other little ships. And there arose a great storm of wind,
and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. And He was in the
back of the ship, asleep on a pillow, and they awoke Him, and said unto Him, 'Master,
don't you care that we perish?' And He arose, and REBUKED the WIND, and SAID to
the SEA, 'Peace, be still.' And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
Many of you know
the Biblical truths of speaking in faith. We can see this in Mark 11:22-24 in Jesus'
own words. The purpose of this teaching is to draw attention to WHY our Lord
spoke to BOTH the wind and the sea.
There may be
certain circumstances in your life NOW—and probably will be in the FUTURE—which
will require you to DO what you learn in this [article]. For whatever reasons
of causation, certain situations can CONTINUE that the enemy would use to bring
fear, defeat, concern, sickness, poverty, or other malevolent processes into
action. There are two (2) things you need to do:
1. You need to speak to the CAUSE—the ROOT or ORIGIN—of
these processes and rebuke them as Jesus did the wind: command them to cease
and desist in the name of Jesus.
2. You need to speak to the EFFECT—THE CONTINUING PROCESS—which
is the result of the cause as Jesus did to the sea: command the process to die
and cease operating in the name of Jesus.
Now, you know how
to DOUBLE ATTACK your problems and to DEFEAT them!
You can PRAISE!
You can CALM
You can TRIUMPH!

b'Shem Adonai.
