And that's why anything breathing, and let me put it this way, everything breathing is praising the Lord. Even the first time they pop a baby on the behind, in Jewish, in Hebrew theology, the baby breathes in. And when he does, he says, Yah. And when he exhales, Yahweh, which is the name of God. The very breath of God is praise to God. The birds are praising him. The cattle are praising him on a thousand hills. The animals and the wildlife in Africa are praising the Lord.

… He brought you from death to life to worship. That's why the Bible said, let everything that hath breath praise the Lord. God breathed on mankind in the book of Genesis 2 and verse 7 and made man a living soul. The only other time that God breathed on someone was in John 20, when before he left this world, Jesus breathed on a group of his disciples and said, receive ye the Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is nothing less than the breath of God. So when he says, let everything that has breath, let everything that has the breath of God in you, praise the Lord.

We were liberated so that we could leap for him. He took those cigarettes out of your fingers so you could clap your hands and praise him and not burn yourself. …

But in Psalm 47, verse 1, it says, clap your hands, all you people, and shout with a voice of triumph. He didn't say, do one or the other. He said, do both hands.

… it means for us to create a sound. That even for let everything that has breath praise the Lord, that our breath has to push through matter. has to disrupt molecules in order for our voice to translate into praise in heaven. When I thought about that spiritually, it made me realize that it's not just it pushing through molecules within our body, but sometimes it's pushing through our doubt. It's pushing through our fears. It's pushing through our stress and our worry. And so I believe that God put within our body a reflection of what happens in the spirit. I talked about our brain interpreting that sound, the disrupted molecules into sound, and how the Spirit allows for translation for us as well. That's why we have to have a relationship with the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit helps us to discern people's temperaments. The Holy Spirit makes intercession on our behalf. That means I'm praying the best thing I know to pray, but I don't know the full will of God, I don't know what God is gonna do in my situation, but I pray anyway, recognizing that the Holy Spirit is translating my prayer. …
