Praise God

 The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom; all those who practice it have a good understanding. His praise endures forever! Psalm. 111:10

Psalm 150  (verse 6) adds, “Let everything that has breath praise the LORD.”

Not only that, but Jesus pointed out the praise potential of rocks! When the Pharisees told Jesus to rebuke the people who were shouting His praise during His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, Jesus said:

“I tell you that if these should keep silent, the stones would immediately cry out”

(Luke 19:40).

Throughout the whole creation, praise comes naturally. But with humans, it seems a little harder. We want to know why. In this world under Satan’s sway (1 John 5:19), we find it easier to be suspicious and cynical than spiritual and lyrical about praising God.
