Psalms 113

1 Praise ye the Lord. Praise, O ye servants of the Lord, praise the name of the Lord.

2 Blessed be the name of the Lord from this time forth and fear ever more.

3 From the rising of the sun unto the going down of the same the Lord's name is to be praised.

4 The Lord is high above all nations, and his glory above the heavens.

5 Who is like unto the Lord our God, who dwelt on high,

6 Who humbleth himself to behold the things that are in heaven, and in the earth!

7 He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and he lifteth the needy out of the dunghill;

8 That he may set him with princes, even the princes of his people.

9 He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children. Praise ye the Lord.

1S 2:8 - He raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and he lifteth up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the Lord's, and he hath set the world upon them.

Isa 26:19 - Thy dead men shall live, together with my dead body shall they arise. Awake and sing ye that dwell in dust: for thy dew is as dew of herbs, and the earth shall cast out the dead.

Prasie ye the Lord! Oh, praise ye the Lord! Look at the barren land that he has brought us from, and praise Him!! He has allowed our sins to be taken from us and for us to be cleansed!! A people who had never given fruit are now a part of a fruitful tree, so praise Him!! He is worthy of all praise from sunrise to sunset! When there was no one who could help us, who was there? So praise Him! When there was nothing that could change our situations, who came to our aid? So worship Him!! He has taken us from a place of desolation to a place of prosperity, so give Him the honor He deserves!! Just as he has lifted unworthy pilgrims from the dust in times past He has given us the opportunity to be lifted up as well! Sing praises to His name!! He is the almighty! The all powerful! The all knowing! The King of Kings and Lord of Lords! He is Jehovah! He gave his son to us not only to suffer on that cross but also to lead us into the promised land!! So let us drop our differences and put away our prides and prejudices and give reverence and honor to the only one who has the power and the mercy to change the human soul and take us to that Spiritual place that we have been given to dwell! He has given us, even us, a chance to live in righteousness and receive the almighty reward of eternal life!! Look back, just for a moment, and see where he has brought you from!! Again, praise ye the Lord! Oh praise ye the Lord! If you do not feel this gratitude or have to experienced this change it is highly urged that you find your place in Jesus Christ! He is the way! He is the truth! And he is the life!!! Be drawn to him today and............praise Him!!!! Have a great day!!!
