EXALT THE LORD OUR GOD AND WORSHIP HIM

Proclamation:
“The King is mighty, He loves justice; You have established equity; … Exalt The Lord our God and worship at His footstool; He is holy.”  Psalm 99:4-5 (NIV)

Explanation:
The words of this psalm of praise are thought to have been written under the influence of The Holy Spirit of God by King David.  He says that The Lord God reigns, He is great, He is awesome, He is holy, and He is mighty.  In the past, He led and protected His people, He spoke to them and answered their prayers.  He forgave their sins but He also punished them for their misdeeds. (Psalm 99:8)  They were encouraged to lift up His name and to bow down at His feet.

Application:
The Lord God is holy, and He is also great and powerful.  He is ruler over all the earth and He is worthy of our praise and worship.  He is The King of all kings, the creator of all things, and He rewards of those who diligently seek Him. (Hebrews 11:6)  He answered them in the past when they called to Him, and He will answer us when we call upon Him.  The effectual fervent prayers of the righteous are productive. (James 5:16)
