Nichiren Daishonin: "Therefore, the words of this Sutra are indeed the very soul of Shakyamuni Buddha. And since every single word constitutes the soul of the Buddha, Shakyamuni Buddha will protect persons who practice this Sutra as though he were protecting his very own eyes. He will accompany such persons just as a shadow accompanies a body. How then could the prayers of such persons not be answered." (MW vol 7, On Prayer, pg 34)
When we chant the Title (Daimoku) of the Lotus Sutra, even though we do not understand its meaning and when we believe in the Master of Teachings Lord Shakya, we have his protection and his Benefit.
