Psalm 100:2

Serve the Lord with gladness;

Come in His presence with singing.

God will lift us up when we serve Him with gladness. We draw closer to God in our praise and worship of Him and enter His holy presence.  On those days when the enemy comes pounding on the door. Praise the Lord. Lift your hands and worship to beat back any darkness that tries to invade. Praise the Lord. Break down the barriers and hold back the tide all when we Praise the Lord.
