Something that we should keep in mind when praising God, is that we should praise him without thinking about the benefits we are going to have, because God already knows everything we need.
It is better to worry because His name is honored and glorified day after day. Sometimes we see many people eager to receive a miracle or something that they have been waiting for from the Lord. This desperation of some people is because they do not trust the Lord, they only care about the problem they have.
The blessing of Jehovah is the one that enriches, and does not add sadness to it.
Every day let’s focus more on exalting His glorious name, no matter what problems come. God must always be praised, for His good works, for His might, and for all that is above us, below us, and even in the deepest. Praise God.
1 Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
3 Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
5 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.
6 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
8 Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
Psalm 148:1-9
The most advisable thing is to remember how good God is and not about the problems we have every day. He has to be praised above all, His name placed on all peoples as Psalm 148 tells us. Here He is sending us to worship God. Everything that exists, wherever we are, let us worship His holy name, because of things beset us every day, God will take care.
Let’s do this and our lives will change, we praise His name, as we said earlier. Let us praise not for the benefits we will get from Him, but because every day He renews His mercies toward us. That’s why we praise.
9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
10 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
11 Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
12 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
13 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
14 He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the Lord.
Psalm 148:9-14
Clearly this is a mandate, that all His saints worship Him alone, that they exalt wherever they are. All praise God, tribe, nation, youth, children, maidens, elders, princes, judges, and all the kings of all the earth raise their voice giving glory power and majesty to the God who lives and reigns for ever and ever.
