GOD DESERVES OUR PRAISE [Psalm 9] a
1. “I will praise You, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works.
2. I will be glad and rejoice in You; I WILL SING PRAISE YOUR NAME, O MOST HIGH."
Psalm 9:1,2 (NKJV)

1. “I will praise You, O LORD, with my whole heart; I will tell of all Your marvelous works.
2. I will be glad and rejoice in You; I WILL SING PRAISE YOUR NAME, O MOST HIGH."
Psalm 9:1,2 (NKJV)
• David said he will tell about God’s marvellous works.
FOR He has done great and marvelous things (Psalm 9:1).
- If you can think, you will know how to thank God.
- When you praise God, you provoke Him to do more of the like of what He has just done in your life.
- You should always acknowledge God’s goodness in your life.
YOU praise God with your whole heart, and not half-heartedly.
- Truth: God MAY have not done all you wanted Him to do, however, that which He has done is good.
- God deserves our thanks and praises.
• In the work of Ministry, your focus should be on God, and appreciate Him for every result, no matter how minute or small the result might look.
- Ascribe the glory of your success to God.
ACKNOWLEDGE Him and tell Him that He is the One who has performed the miracles, and let people know that HE is the reason for your success: “Sing praises to the LORD, who dwells in Zion! DECLARE HIS DEEDS AMONG THE PEOPLE" (Psalm 9:11).
• You cannot but have a reason to praise God if you walked with Him as you ought to.
- In walking with God, you experience His amazements and surprises EVERY minute, hour, and day.
- God is awesome and greatly to be praised.
- God’s deeds should be declared among the people: "THAT I MAY TELL OF ALL YOUR PRAISE IN THE GATES OF THE DAUGHTER OF ZION. I will rejoice in Your salvation. I will rejoice in Your salvation" (Psalm 9:14).
NOTE: Testimonies of God’s deeds stimulate faith in other people.
- The testimony given will reproduce its kind.
WHEN you give a testimony of what God has done, it provokes Him to do more.
• God avenges for His elects, particularly those who are humble: "When He avenges blood, He remembers them; HE DOES NOT FORGET THE CRY OF THE HUMBLE [afflicted]" (Psalm 9:12).
- God listens to the cry of the humble: "Have mercy on me, O LORD! Consider my trouble from those who hate me, YOU WHO LIFT ME UP FROM THE GATES OF DEATH" (Psalm 9:13).
- Then YOUR love for the truth makes you humble.
YOUR level of humility determines your depth in God.
NOTE: “God resists the proud, BUT GIVES GRACE TO THE HUMBLE” (James 4:6).

A LITTLE LOWER THAN THE ANGELS [PSALM 8] A

1. “O LORD, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth, Who have set Your glory above the heavens!
3. “When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,
4. What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?”
5. FOR YOU HAVE MADE HIM A LITTLE LOWER THAN THE ANGELS, And You have crowned him with glory and honour."
6. You have made him to have dominion over the works of your hands; You have put all things under his feet,
7. All sheep and oxen—even the beast of the field,
8. The birds of the air, and the fish of the Sea that pass through the paths of the seas."
Psalm 8:1,3-8 (NKJV)
• God is awesome. He is too much!
- Considering the heavens and all He has made, no one should boast before Him (1 Corinthians 1:29,31).
- Nature speaks about God (Romans 1:19,20).
- However, if God gives you the opportunity as an individual to do a particular thing, you should see it as a privilege.
- If someone is not willing to do God's bidding, He has any number of people He can use—He can do without any man, no one can hold Him to ransom.
- God would not need the help or assistance of anyone to do whatever He purposes to do.
• Truth: Every servant of God should always see it As a privilege to be considered HIS minister.
- God made man a little lower than Elohim–God (Psalm 8:5).
~ Man has God’s attributes.
~ We have ability to reason, and comprehend things.
~ We have ability to plan things and accomplish whatever the plan may be: “And the LORD said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; NOW NOTHING THAT THEY PROPOSE TO DO WILL BE WITHHELD FROM THEM" (Genesis 11:6).
~ Ability to bring to fulfilment what they have proposed was given to man through their oneness and language.
~ Through their oneness and language, they could bring to fulfilment whatever they have determined to do.
- God crowned man with glory and honour.
GOD made him have dominion over the works of His hands; God puts all things under his feet (Psalm 8:6,7).
NOTE: God created man to rule and dominate the world:
27. “So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.
28. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every living thing that moves on the earth” ” (Genesis 1:27-28).
