[Tweet “We tend to wait until things get really bad before attempting to do something good enough to counteract it.”]He had already established the pattern of praise, and that’s what enabled him to keep singing praises even when the place where he praised had changed.

Never stop praising because our praise invites His presence into the situation, and anywhere He goes, breakthrough follows.
