Acts of expression lead to feelings of intimacy so when I praise, feelings of love toward God grow in me and feelings of being loved by God grow in me. You already experience this principle in all your most meaningful relationships: your family, closets friends, and others you might think of as being in your inner circle of trust. These are people you confide in, are transparent with, sharing your hopes, your dreams, your laments…all of these repeated acts of expression build in you feelings of love and intimacy. The same is true with our relationship with God. So when Jesus tells us to love God with all hour heart, soul, and mind, He isn’t just giving us the greatest commandment. He is giving us the greatest promise! Your heart is capable of feeling love for God and feeling loved by God that flows from every part of who you are — heart, soul, and mind. Praise is a way that we build those feelings of love because praise aides us in telling God how we feel. Remember, acts of expression lead to feelings of intimacy! Tonights message builds on this principle and teaches us how physical posturing during our acts of praise bring emphasis to the sentiments we are expressing to God and amplifies the feelings of intimacy that ensue! As we continue this series Holy Roar, tonight we learn about Yadah and Barak, what Chris Tomlin and Darren Whitehead refer to as the posture of praise.
