“Great is the LORD in Zion; he is exalted over all the nations. Let them praise your great and awesome name—he is holy” (Ps. 99:2).

Truly you are worthy to be exalted over ALL the nations, for you are the maker of EVERY nation: “All the nations whom you have created will come before you, O Lord, and glorify your name” (Ps. 86:9).

Your name, Lord God, is worthy of praise, for it is truly great and awesome. You are Yahweh (LORD),

the Holy One,

utterly other,

spotless, clean,

free of any corruption within or without,

unable to sin,

shining in glorious purity,

full of goodness, righteousness and love,

empty of all evil, darkness and negativeness,

Hater of sin and Lover of sinners.

You, LORD, are absolutely worthy of praise, because of your perfect character, your powerful deeds, your persistent love.  So, we bow before you in humility, we rise up in obedience, giving you honor, rejoicing and delighting in being your children.

Picture: the Creator of all holds us in His hands.
