Insights from the Book

 Bishop Oyedepo unveils the power of praise which has been ignored in the body of Christ thereby denying ourselves of some outstanding results that can baffle the world. He made bold to say that Praise remains the cheapest access to the Most High God. It is appreciating the acts of God in your life. The greatest obstacles facing you in life may never require more than praise to become a miracle.

The book further provides a deeper understanding that you can praise your way out of penury into plenty, out of sickness into health, and out of smallness into greatness. He explains that although prayer has its place, it cannot compete with praise in potency. Praise is much more effectual than the longest fast any man can engage in. He further explains that it is possible to pray amiss, but you cannot praise amiss. In his submission, when you praise God, the greatness of His power shatters the plan of the enemies. It is high time believers rediscover the dynamics of praise and engages it meaningfully to the growth of the kingdom of God.
