God's ways are made known on the earth, and His salvation among the nations when His people receive grace and blessing from God. Arguments are important, but unless people see the blessing of God on God's people few will believe. Conversely, the revelation of God's blessing can overturn a thousand arguments, the reality of His goodness. Now this is not an argument for cheap prosperity teaching, but the fundamental truth is that God is good, and the fundamental lie put about by the devil is that God is bad. This is what the serpent did in the Garden of Eden, and if you listen to any of the new atheists, or the humanists, it is what their arguments boil down to.
So we need to praise the Lord, Praising the Lord is one of the best ways of releasing the blessing of God. Praise and receiving the blessing of God are key tools in evangelism. They are also key tools in spiritual warfare. Sometimes we can find all sorts of opposition to praising God, but we need to fight with all that we have and to insist on praising the Lord. Ultimately, no one can stop the praises of God being heard.
