Empowered by Praise | Eternal Benefits: Empowered by Praise (Part 1)

In Eternal Benefits, Dr. Michael Youssef opens the six-part Empowered by Praise series with a deeply personal testimony, calling believers to examine the spiritual condition of their hearts through the lens of praise. Drawing from Matthew 12:34 and Psalm 22:3, Dr. Youssef declares that praise is not optional—it is essential fuel for victory, intimacy with Christ, and spiritual power. He outlines four divine truths: Praise reveals our true spiritual state, refocuses our destiny, reestablishes God’s reign, and reinforces our relationship with Him. The call is urgent: begin each day praising the Name, character, and mercy of God, and watch the Holy Spirit ignite victorious living. Praise is not a feeling—it is an act of faith and obedience that draws God’s sovereign rule into our lives. Let us rise each morning with praise on our lips, inviting Christ to reign over our hearts, homes, and witness. The time is now.
