"Praise is cardinal to the believer, because it is his
cheapest access to the Most High God. It is also one his surest accesses to the
realm of the miraculous. Praise is also a preservative of the blessings of God.
Blessings may come without it, but it takes praise to preserve the blessings.
It is to one’s blessings what salt is to meat – it keeps it from decaying.”

“Unfortunately, the power in praise has been ignored in the
body of Christ. People think it is for those who don’t know how to pray, but
that is far from the truth. I have proved in my life that praise is much more
effectual than the longest fast any man can engage in. Also, although prayer
(no matter how fervent) has its place, it cannot compete with praise in
potency. Praise makes things work cheaply.” Page 5
“There is no way you can use scientific measures to
understand the truth of the gospel, because it is far above it. Science cannot
authenticate the truth. God says: For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways (Isaiah 55:8). That is why we cannot use the
wisdom of this world to authenticate the truth of God’s word. You have to be
spiritually minded to grasp the things of God. Embrace the ‘foolishness’ of the
gospel, so that your wisdom can be established upon the earth, because the
foolishness of God is wiser than men and His weakness is stronger than men. So
whatever He tells you to do, do it, or you keep going in circles.” Page 6
“There’s a degree of comfort and restful confidence that
comes on those who live a praiseful lifestyle.” Page 7 (See Genesis 49:8-9)
“Do you want to go up? Praise is the ladder to use. Just
trigger off that Judaic nature inside you! You will be so restful. You will
couch like a lion, and when you wake up, anything you find will be food for
you.” Page 8
