Your praises change the atmosphere. Your praises can change the atmosphere in your house. Not all of us live in houses that have only Spirit-filled people in them, and sometimes you have to contend with atmospheres that aren't correct. If you want that atmosphere to change, praise the Lord. Your praise permeates the room with the fragrance of God and will change the atmosphere in your household. Stop criticizing and murmuring and complaining, start praising.
Your voice is a powerful instrument of warfare. You can bring the glory in any place in the world by your voice.

When we are lifted up in singing, God begins to give the answers to our trouble. First, He lifts us up above the cares, the problems, the needs. There is a realm of ease in God. We make spiritual things difficult. He wants to make them easy. He wants the King of Glory to come in and fight our battles for us.
Most of the time we are so busy fighting our own battles that we don't let the Lord do it for us.
Remember when Jehoshaphat went out against the kings, the singers and dancers(praisers) went before the army. Because the praisers went before the army, they didn't even need to fight [2 Chr 20:21-24].
And you will never need to fight your own battle if you move into this realm of praise and worship unto the Lord. The more we sing to Him, the more He will fight our battles.
