  Praise the Lord

1. We are commanded to praise God.

  “This day shall be for you a memorial day, and you shall keep it as a feast to the Lord; throughout your generations, as a statute forever, you shall keep it as a feast.“

  Exodus 12:14

2. There also is a can’t-help-it aspect to praising the Lord.

  A. Starting now and forevermore

  “After this I heard what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying out, ‘Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God, …’ “

  Revelation 19:1

  “Once more they cried out, ‘Hallelujah!’ “

  Revelation 19:3a

  “And the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshipped God who was seated on the throne, saying, ‘Amen. Hallelujah!’ “

  Revelation 19:4

  “Then I heard what seemed to be the voice of a great multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out, ‘Hallelujah! For the Lord our God the Almighty reigns.’ “ 

  Revelation 19:6

  B. We praise in advance of the day.

  C. Doesn’t mean it’s not difficult.

3. What does this praise look like?

  “Who is a God like you, pardoning iniquity and passing over transgression for the remnant of His inheritance?”

  Micah 7:18a

  “To whom then will you liken God, or what likeness compare with Him?”

  Isaiah 40:18

  “To whom then will you compare me, that I should be like him? says the Holy One.“

  Isaiah 40:25
