I'm at a loss for words...

in a very true sense and I need prayer please! :>
The Lord has been telling me the past weeks that I need to praise Him.
I need to open my mouth and sing aloud worship songs.
It has become a more pressing thing as of late. I've been feeling that if I can just sing during church worship time then some strongholds of the enemy will be broken. I know that there is healing and power and that God works in us when we praise Him. I've even told this to other people!
My problem is that I am TERRIFIED of singing in public. I can SPEAK in public like addressing a crowd no problem but if singing is involved I clam right up.
I've struggled through services crying from fear and whispering and squeaking the words during worship time. I used to sing alone ALL THE TIME and yes, even the praise songs I heard at church. Then I got married and I mostly forgot about singing by myself.
SO during these past weeks with the Lord pressing me to praise Him I have found my problem is worsened. Today at church I was determined to sing along during worship time. I would start to open my mouth and all the sudden I would be overwhelmed with tears and nothing would come out of my mouth! I was not sad,happy,angry or anything! After a few attempts I was getting really extremely annoyed and then angry. I wondered if this was the enemy keeping me from doing what he hates most? It was just so frustrating you don't even know. I tried to just sing and not think about what I was saying just so at least I could get my lips and voice to move. Then again in starting to open my mouth the tears would start and my throat would close up. I was by then angry after the fifth try and just gave up.
I'm frustrated that this happens also when I try and sing again alone as of late. I'm frustrated that instead of getting the ball rolling in what the Lord is telling me to do I NOW have to wait until church service next Sunday to try again!
So after all that I would like prayer please. I'm very sad and upset about this and angry. I don't want the enemy to have a foothold in my life anymore! :<
Thankyou so much! :>
