Come Out With Your Hands Up!

Remember those old movies where you had the "Good Guys" and the "Bad Guys" and you knew that at some point during the movie the Bad Guys would get themselves cornered in some old shack/barn with no way out and have some sort of shoot out with the police. It usually ended up one of two ways: The bad guys would be shot and killed or the cops would shout "Come Out With Your Hands Up!" and the Bad Guys would surrender.

Have you ever found your self in a situation where you felt cornered like there was no way out? Perhaps you feel cornered by debt, stress, anxiety, or some other challenge that life might bring. Did you know that God has already equipped you with the weapons you need to overcome any situation in life?

When You begin to Praise/Worship God, he steps into your situation; He inhabits the praises of his people (Psalms 22:3) To "Inhabit" means to: dwell; remain; sit; abide. God is not a God of confusion, so in order for him to "Inhabit" (dwell, remain, sit, or abide)in your Praise/Worship he has to first fix your situation!

So the next time you feel cornered, take a lesson from the "Bad Guys." Go ahead and surrender (to The Lord) and "Come Out With Your Hands UP!"

Be Blessed Today!
