As for me, its praises

Praying makes me feel closer too but not as much as praises does

When I was a Christain, I loved praises more than prayer. I loved praises not because I enjoyed praising the Christain God, I loved it because of the dancing and the melody of the songs. Prayer never made sense to me. How will your caring and loving God who knows all your needs wait for you to ask first before you get what he knows you need.

A good God doesn't need to be prayed to to do the needful.

Christianity is always in you. You can't run away from Light.

Praises brings me closer

Our faith is at the level it is today because we're controlled by feelings and emotions, all these are temporary and eventually fail.
Spiritual encounters In the place of prayers and praises are usually experienced, not felt

Which light? Baba religion na scam.

Every religion will scare you into believing their nonsense with either threat of hellfire

Or

Promise of enjoying somewhere when you die.

If you be fear fear , you go believe their lies because you no wan go their hellfire

If you are a greedy fool , you go their religion because you hear "in my fathers house there are many mansions there" , or say them go give you virgin women when you die.

easy bro, you could be excused for not believing in God but, outrightly insulting the most high is going beyond the beyond.

There is a supreme God who cares!!!

According to God, the only way to draw closer go God is through continuous submission and obedience of His teachings and commandments in Jesus Christ - there is no other way to honor God. And as He made clear in John 15 vs 7 - 15, only those who abide in Him through Obedience will He abide in. No amount of your praying or praising or any of other rituals which He never commanded will change His decree.

Ok

In Psalm 100:4
we are told to “enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise.”

Psalm 22:3 says: “But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel (His People).


Praise, provokes GOD’s manifest presence to you.

Na worship o

Worship for me.

If you want to feel close to God....

Leave a good life, Be involved in genuine charities and help humanity in the best possible way that you can.

Praying is like talking to God, Praise is boldly declaring while worship is bowing in his presence
