Top Highlights
“Praise, in its essence, is adoration of God. For a workable definition, however, we must qualify this. Praise is always active, assertive, demonstrative, and open. It is not passive, presumptuous, undemonstrative, or secretive. Wherever it is mentioned, movement, action, sounds, and songs are seen and heard.” (Page 18)
“Now we learn the key to history. Not only are there two realms of reality, the seen and the unseen, but the unseen realm controls the seen. We have had it the other way around. This is the reason it has been difficult to have faith, for faith’s foundational claim is that real, genuine reality is in the area of the invisible.” (Page 23)
“The purpose of creation is praise. In Isaiah 43:21 God declared, ‘… the people that I formed for myself, THAT THEY MAY PROCLAIM MY PRAISE’ (caps mine). Praise is the reason for the existence of the universe, man, and all creation included.” (Page 27)
“Let us use, then, as our working definition of praise, the following description: praise is adoration of God that is vocal, audible, or visible (any one or all of these at a time).” (Page 19)
“The truth is that praise is strength and strength is praise From the simple, the toddlers and babes” (Page 33)
