Are You Using Praise for Your Elevation? | Matthew 21:8‑10 & Luke 19:37‑40 | Pastor Dr. Alton McKinl
When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the crowd’s praise filled the streets — garments laid down, palm branches waving, voices shouting “Hosanna!” (Matthew 21:8‑10). In Luke 19:37‑40, even when the Pharisees tried to silence the celebration, Jesus declared that if the people kept quiet, the stones themselves would cry out.
This message challenges us to see praise not as a reaction to blessing, but as a posture that positions us for God’s next move. Pastor Alton unpacks how authentic worship can lift you above fear, opposition, and self‑doubt — and how withholding praise can limit your spiritual elevation.
You’ll discover:
• Why praise is a spiritual weapon and a faith statement
• How worship shifts your perspective in seasons of waiting
• The link between gratitude, obedience, and breakthrough
• How to praise even when circumstances haven’t changed yet
If you’ve been holding back your worship, this sermon will inspire you to lift your voice, open your heart, and let praise carry you higher in God’s purpose.
💡 Watch now and step into the kind of praise that moves heaven and changes your life.
