Do you know that life without praise unto God is a disaster? Praise unto the Lord is the solution for the challenges of life at this time. As such, making praise a life style is absolutely a wise decision. This post emphasizes the need to be praising the Father as a lifestyle.

Praise unto God brings Him to the scene while praise to the devil attracts the enemy. Are you wondering how people praise the devil?
