Praise Him


Praise Him

When have you praised Jesus for no other reason than the fact that He deserves your homage, simply because of Who He is? When your spirit is heavy, when your heart is broken, when your future is bleak, when your dreams are shattered, when your memories are haunting, when your burdens are unbearable. Praise him!

If He never answers your prayer, if He never heals your disease, if He never solves your fanatical crisis, if He never reconciles your relationship, if He never lifts your burden, if He never erases your memories,

Just exert your will and praise Him for Who He is! Why? Because He deserves it! And because praise is the switch that turns on the light in the darkness of your life.

So, let us praise Him

He is enduringly strong. He is entirely sincere. He is eternally steadfast. He is immortally gracious. He is imperially powerful. He is impartially merciful. He is the greatest phenomenon that has ever crossed the horizons of the globe. He is God’s Son. He is the sinner’s Savior. He is the captive’s ransom. He is the breadth of life. He is the centerpiece of civilization. He stands in the solitude of Himself.

He is august and He is unique. He is unparalleled and he is unprecedented. He is undisputed and He is undefiled. He is unsurpassed and He is unshakable.

He is the lofty idea in philosophy. He is the highest personality in psychology. He is the supreme subject in literature. He is the unavoidable problem in higher criticism. He is the fundamental doctrine of theology he is the cornerstone, the capstone, and the stumbling stone of all religion. He is the miracle of the ages.

Keep on praising Him for Who He is…

He is the key to knowledge. He is the wellspring of wisdom. He is the foundation of faith. He is the doorway of deliverance. He is the pathway to peace. He is the roadway of righteousness. He is the gateway to glory. He is the highway to happiness.

Just keep on praising Him…

His office is manifold and His promise is sure. His life is matchless and His goodness is limitless. His mercy is enough and His grace is sufficient. His reign is righteous, His yoke is easy, and His burden is light.

He is indestructible. He is indescribable. He is incomprehensible. He is inescapable. He is invisible. He is irresistible. He is irrefutable.

I can’t get Him out of my mind…And I can’t get Him out of my heart. I can’t outlive Him… And I can’t live without Him.

The Pharisees couldn’t stand Him but found they couldn’t stop Him. Satan tried to tempt Him but found he couldn’t trip Him. Pilate placed Him on trial but found no fault in Him. The Romans crucified Him but couldn’t take His life. Death couldn’t handle Him and the grave couldn’t hold Him.

And keep on praising Him

He’s the Lion and He’s the Lamb. He is God and He is man.

He’s the seven-way king:

He is the king of the Jews… That’s a racial King.

He is the King of Israel…That’s a national King.

He is the King of righteousness…That’s a moral King.

He is the King of the ages…That’s an eternal King.

He is the King of heaven…That’s a universal King.

He is the King of glory…That’s a celestial King.

….Anne Graham Lotz
