"I Feel Like Praising Him" by Shirley Caesar is a powerful gospel song that is all about the joy of praising the Lord. The song opens up with the repetition of the line "I feel like praising, praising Him" which is a proclamation of the singer's desire to worship God. The melody then repeats, but adds the line "Praise Him in the morning, Praise Him all day long", emphasizing that the time to praise the Lord is always and to do it with all your heart, mind, soul, and strength.
The second verse implies that the time to praise the Lord is limited because there is always the possibility of it being too late. "I'm gonna praise the Lord while I have a chance" implies that the opportunity to worship may not always be present and thus we should take advantage of it while it is available to us. This is then echoed in the repeat of the chorus.
The third verse takes a more personal tone as Caesar sings "If you don't wanna praise Him don't bother me/ If you don't wanna go don't hinder me". This is a powerful message about staying focused on one's own relationship with God, and not letting others' choices or opinions interfere with it.
This song is an uplifting and encouraging reminder to always praise God, especially during times of struggle. It encourages us to embrace worship as a daily and lifelong habit, as the chorus repeats "I feel like praising, praising Him" and emphasizes the importance of praising His name continuously.

***Greetings, Beloved of God. This message is lengthy but, it is very important.
The ancient Israelites was tested by the Sabbath commandment to see if they would keep Godβs law or no in Exodus 16:4β
Do not be surprised if God allow man to do a similar test, enforce some type of Sabbath law to see who we will follow and obey.
**********************************************
Right now, we all do not see eye to eye, but, please hear me out..............
There is no way anyone can prove from the KJV Bible that Saturday, Sunday, etc. is the biblical seventh day Sabbaths. For, the words Saturday, Sunday, etc. do not appear in the Bible.
A continuous Saturday, Sunday, etc., βman made Sabbathsβ ARE NOT the true Bible Sabbaths because they are not calculated by true time. Godβs true time is written in Genesis 1:14.
When God commanded us to keep a seventh day Sabbath, kill the Passover on the 14th day of the first month, keep the day of atonement on the 10th day of the seventh month, etc......would He not have given us a calendar/Time to find these dates?
Yes, He would have and He did, in Genesis 1:14. We are commanded to keep the days, years, etc. by the lights in heaven (the sun, moon and stars.)
God did not specify which days, so, we must conclude that He meant for all of His 3 category of days to be kept by the lights in heaven.
*********
The Sabbath command is one of the Ten Commandments listed in Exodus 20. It is just as important as the other nine and God commands us to keep it.
Multitudes of people think and teach that we are only required to keep 9 of Godβs Ten Commandments. My Friend, if we think this way, we are already deceived.
***The Sabbath is a feast. Leviticus 23:1-3
***The moon is for seasons. Psalms 104:19
***The lights in heaven are for seasons, etc. Genesis 1:14
***The words βfeastβ and βseasonβ comes from the same Hebrew word, MOED.
***MOED is, appointed times, appointments, feast, season, etc.
The Sabbath is a MOED, an appointed time , a feast, a season, etc. Therefore, the moon, along with the other lights in heaven, are for Sabbaths.
THE SABBATH IS TO BE CALCULATED BY THE TIME GOD ORDAINED IN THE BEGINNING OF CREATION NOT BY MANβS TIME/CALENDARS.
Who can prove from Genesis 1:14 that the Sabbath day is not calculated by the lights in heaven? Although many have tried, it cannot be refuted!!
Take a glimpse at the dates in Genesis 7:11 and Genesis 8:4,13,14. Are these dates calculated by the Time God commanded in Genesis 1:14 or by the Gregorian time or some other man made time?
********
There are about 167 countries that keep Sunday as the seventh day and the remaining, approximately, 64 countries keep Saturday as the seventh day.
If there is a βseventh day Sunday lawβ enforced and the remaining 64 countries change their calendars to read Sunday as the seventh day, then, the world will be keeping Sunday the seventh day as the Sabbath.
Mon. Tue. Wed. Thur. Fri. Sat. Sunday Law
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7
What day will you and I then keep as the Sabbath?
Already today, there are βSunday Blue Lawsβ on government books.
Man can change βtheirβ time anytime and deceive the world under the leadership of Satan. We must calculate Godβs Sabbath by Godβs Time so The Great Deceiver can not trick us about the true Sabbath and βcauseβ us to worship him.
β He will think to change time and laws.β says Daniel 7:25
He only βTHOUGHTβ to change time when He βsupposedlyβ had replaced Godβs calendar with his calendar on earth. For he could not and has not truly change time because Godβs Time sits in the heavens where no man can tamper with it! The sun, moon and stars, the lights in heaven, are Godβs Time/Calendar.
*********
Godβs Calendar has three category of days, the new moon day, the six work days and the Sabbath day. 2 Kings 4:18-23 & Ezekiel 46:1-3. The new moon day is the first day of the month, the beginning of months. These days never, ever, ever overlaps each other on Godβs Time!
........However, this is not true on the famous Gregorian calendar. The new moon day falls anywhere and everywhere on that calendar, in a given month.
For example, sometimes, the new moon day falls on a βman made Saturday Sabbathβ, on a βman made Sunday Sabbathβ, in the midst of the month, etc.
How can it both be the first day of the month and the seventh day Sabbath?
How can the first day of the month start in the midst of a month?
God said in Genesis 1:14 to, let the lights in heaven be for days, etc.
So, which one or ones of Godβs three category of days are kept by the lights in heaven?
...The new moon day?
...The six work days?
...The Sabbath day?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Example of Godβs months:
1st week... new moon day, six work days and Sabbath day
2nd, 3rd, 4th weeks....six work days and Sabbath day
The next month the cycle starts over.
Godβs months reset. Read Luke 6:1
Man uses this same concept. For example:
The 1st and 3rd Sunday in August, the 1st and 3rd Sunday in September.β
βThe 2nd and 4th Sabbath in April, the 2nd and 4th Sabbath in May.β
Note: There is never, never, ever, ever, 5 weekly Sabbaths in any one of Godβs months.
This is not true on the Gregorian calendar. Sometimes, there are 5 weekly βGregorian Sabbaths.β This is not in align with true time.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I believe there is a great deception coming to get people to worship Satan through a false Calendar/Sabbath controversy.
God is a God of truth. God guides people by His truth. Godβs Word is truth. Truth is our shield and buckler. Truth will keep us from all deceptions, the mark of beast, etc.
Christ did not suffer on the cross for us to walk in a lie and continue to cling to our traditions! He did not die for us to keep obeying the βvoice of manβ above βthe voice of God!β
Read the stories about βKing Saulβ in 1 Samuel 15 and the βman of Godβ in 1 king 13. Let us learn a lesson from these testimonies....Obey Godβs Voice!
When we do and teach manβs commandments for doctrine, it is vain! It is useless! God does not honor it! There will be no reward!
Again! there is a great possibility some type of βMan made Sabbath Lawβ could be enforced. These latter days crises seems to be pointing in that direction. If this is not true, then, we do not have to worry about it......But.....
....If it is truth then, we need to become more knowledgeable about this subject in order to make the right decision whom we will honor and serve.
A Sabbath test will reveal those who believe Gods Word in Genesis 1:14 and those who do not believe His Word.
Whether there is or whether there is not a βSabbath Testβ, we still need to know the truth about Godβs Time written in the Word of God so we can be obedient in all things.
***Worship Him that made heaven, earth and sea.
***Babylon is fallen! Babylon is fallen!
***Do not worship the Beast and receive his mark, whosoever does, will be eternal lost and be burnt with fire and brimstones.
****Read Revelation 13 & 14
This truth about Godβs Calendar/Time and The Sabbath written in Genesis 1:14, Leviticus 23:1-3, Psalms 104:19, etc.is spreading throughout the four corners of the earth.
This message enrages many who claim to be followers of Christ because they can not refute it. It seems, the people outside the church buildings are the ones eagerly accepting it and believing it.
Please let us consider what is being said here and further research this important subject before it is to late.
Peace and Love Friends of God
