Here are the concluding verses of the Vishnu Sahasranaam, which highlight it's significance
In the above verses have been given a complete enumeration of the thousand divine names of the the Great Being Keshava, who is the fit object for all praise and prayer.
Nothing evil or inauspicious will befall a man here or hereafter who daily hears or repeats these names
Whichever devoted man, getting up early in the morning and purifying himself, repeats this hymn devoted to Vaasudeva, with a mind that is concentrated on Him...
That man attains to great fame, leadership among his peers, wealth that is secure and the supreme good unsupassed by anything....
He will be free from all fears and be endowed with great courage and energy and he will be free from diseases. Beauty of form, strength of body and mind, and virtuous character will be natural to him.
Free from all sins, a man devoted to Vaasudeva and completely dependent on Him attains to the eternal status of Brahman.
No inauspicious things can happen to a devotee of Vasudeva. The person will conquer the cycle of birth, death, fear and disease.
One who reads this hymn every day with devotion and attention attains peace of mind, patience, prosperity, mental stability, memory and reputation.
Such a person is not caught by anger, binding, jealousy, or any inauspicious event. Such a bhakta becomes a "punyatma" and merges with the Purshottama (i.e. supreme being)
All scriptures consider right conduct as the foremost requisite. Dharma is based upon right conduct, and Dharma, Achyuta is the master.
The rishis, pitrus, the devas, the great elements and in fact all things moving and unmoving constituting this universe have originated from Naaraayana.
The Yoga, Jnaana, Saamkya, sciences, arts, works, Vedas, scriptures, spiritual illumination -- all these have originated from Janaardhana.
Mahaavishnu is the one all-comprehending being who appears as many. He is the essence of all brings, the consumer of the world, the indestructible one, and the master of all. Pervading all the three worlds, He enjoys all entities constituting them.
Whoever desires advancement and happiness should repeat this devotional hymn on Vishnu composed by Vyaasa.
Never will defeat attend on a man who adores the Lotus-eyed One, who is the Master of all the worlds. Who is birthless, and out of whom the worlds have originated, and into whom they dissolve.
& Of Course Sai baba has asked us to "Read it slowly, little by little, read daily one name at least and it will do you good."
