"I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. (2) My soul shall make its boast in the LORD, the humble shall hear of it and be glad. (3) Oh magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt His name together."
Psalm 34:1-3 NKJV
If it is not already your practice, praise God throughout the day. Exalt Him when you wake up, when you eat, when you leave the house and when you return. An attitude of worship and trust in the Lord will make an amazing difference in your life. Why not speak in tongues for a time; just let the Holy Spirit use the words that reach deeper into the spiritual realm (Ephesians 6:18).
Basically, it is getting into a routine of praising and blessing God before anything else; before you do anything or before you go anywhere. Also, don't forget to ensure that you're dressed in God's Armour (Ephesians 6:10-18).
Train your soul - Mind Will and Emotions, to be synchronised to the Holy Spirit at all times. This includes what we think and learn about and what we take on board. Have a will that says, 'This is the day the LORD has made, we will rejoice and be glad in it.' (Psalm 118:24). This is a choice we make - a choice to be so grateful to God for all He's done, that we just want to praise and rejoice in Him.
Don't forget, when we praise and rejoice in God, it stops the devil in his tracks. He doesn't want any part in a worship session. He backs off and flees. Therefore, if you want to keep the devil at bay, do it the right way, get praising Jesus.
Our emotions begin to bubble when we praise God. Just close your eyes and picture a scene in Heaven. God is in the distance - a huge figure clad in glistening white; and before Him angels and saints are praising, bowing, standing up and bowing again. Picture yourself there. The atmosphere is breathtaking, there's no words to describe itl. This is why we need our prayer language. Now realise that, who you've been praising and worshipping, lives in your heart; accompanies you throughout your day - Jesus Himself. We have so much to thank Him for.
As we boast in the Lord, we may be saying, 'Thank you for a new day of my life Lord, thank you for Your constant faithfulness; the care and provision You give me each day.' There is so much we need to be grateful and thankful for. We only scrape the surface most days.
As we begin to get our prayer, praise and study time right, our walk with Jesus will take off in a more powerful way!
