Derek Prince - Are You Spiritually Alive or Dead?

Now, let me briefly close with a little list, without going into all the references are given in your outline. First of all, when to praise God? And the answer is: every day, forever and ever, at all times, and continually. It leaves no doubt. Now, how to praise God? With the whole heart, with understanding, with lifted hands, with joyful mouth and lips, lifting the hands, as an evening sacrifice, with the dance, with the timbrel and dance. And scripture references are given.

Who is to praise God? And Psalm 148 gives a list of 29 different kinds of people who are to praise God. And then if you still in doubt, Psalm 150 says "everything that has breath", that leaves out nothing. But there's just one class of people who do not praise the Lord. Who's them? The dead. So, you know your problem. Now, if you're not praising the Lord, you've got your own diagnosis: you're not physically dead, but you are spiritually dead.
