Who deserved to be praise

 Opinion news

               In my opinion news of the day I will put deal with the topic of who deserved to be praise? before I even give the meaning of praise let me say this, if you observe well African people which I am, you will see that praise or praising is a natural things for African, we can sing and dance in any situation and circumstance, I mean at joyful time or sad time we do sing, that the things I do no longer accept. Now what is praise; it is to express warm approval or admiration of.... , For me it go beyond just singing and dancing because it is kind of putting the person or things you are praising as your God, and you can not do anything without it or him.

               I will put my opinion on this scriptures First Samuel 18:7 and Acts 10:26, these two scriptures is about the women singing and dancing on David and King Saul killing of enemies and Peter telling Cornelius that he is a man like him, why I choose these two scripture it is simple, when you look they way the society is built you will find there is always a man who is praise above the rest, check in political party the leader is praise all the times by songs and dancing, in the church the senior pastor also is praise more than God, other can say I am the God that you do not see therefore believers are prayer in the name of the God of their leader, soccer players, actor and actress which we called today celebrity all are praise and worship, you will see that the trouble of David against King Saul started by the song like the one sung by the woman, it will birth jealous and bitterness, even lust. countries fighting family disputes also killing because one was praise above the others.

             What is bad, it is when someone is praise in the manner that the person think that without him nothing will work, Mobutu was elevated so high that he was thinking that the Congolese people are nothing without him, when a leader live only for praise that make the leader to think he is the all of all, let see what Peter did, when he comes to house of Cornelius, Cornelius was ready to worship him and praise him, remember Peter did walk and talk to Jesus face to face and he is a man whom God used so mighty at the times but surprise surprise Peter refused to get all the praises and he equal himself to Cornelius by saying I am a man like you, that show leader and by saying that he directed all the praise and adoration to God, by this we understand that the one and only who deserved the praise is God no one else, you may respect a man but not praise him, you may honor a man but not praise him, because a man is the instrument that God use nothing more, you need to know with or without that man you were going to get your blessings anyway because God is the sole provider.

            Songs and praise must go to God, this is why I have find it difficult to praise a man and make the man look like God, let sing the Lord at all times and praise the Lord in the morning, mid day , and evening when the sun set, he is worthy and deserved to be praise, let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Praise the Lord not Man and you will be free.

                   Be bless all of you
