“I will declare Your name to my brothers; in the congregation I will praise You. You who fear The Lord, praise Him! All you descendants of Jacob, honor Him! Revere Him …” Psalms 22:22-23 (NIV)
This psalm begins with David lamenting his suffering and the suffering of our Lord, Jesus The Christ, and ends with exhortations to praise The Lord. The people were encouraged to praise, honor, and revere The Lord.
Given all that He has done for us, we ought to thank Him and praise Him, all day, every day. We ought to honor Him and revere Him by keeping His commandments and obeying His Word. Jesus said: "If you love me, keep my commandments." (John 14:15)
