Psalm 47:1

"O CLAP your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with a voice of triumph."

As I meditate on this scripture today I am awakened again to the teaching last year on the halal. Or the proper sacrifice of praise unto God. The teacher told us that the Psalms serve as protocol for the way to enter into God's presence. And He is will us always but there are times when we praise Him or when we are caught up in prayer to Him when we can feel His presence and when He shows His wonders.

The final lesson in the halal was to rejoice; rejoice like you have lost your mind when it seems like the battle is lost--your circumstance is greater than you. This act invites God to come and fight on your behalf. This act or faith and foolishness invites God to prove Himself, and in my experience He always has.

"For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars." 2 Chronicles 16:9 He will show Himself strong:)
