He is worthy to be praised

"Rejoice and praise God"
Luke 19:37

It's one of the easiest things to forget, I think, when we're praying.  Our priority is our needs, wants and desires.  And hopefully it occurs to us to thank Him for how He has blessed us, and answered yesterday's or last month's prayers.   But how often do we just praise Him, simply because He is God?

He is Ancient of Days
"I watched till thrones were put in place, 
And the Ancient of Days was seated;
His garment was white as snow, 
And the hair of His head was like pure wool.  
His throne was a fiery flame, Its wheels a burning fire"
Daniel 7:9

He is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah
"Then one of the elders said to me,  'Do not weep!  
See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, 
the Root of David, 
has triumphed!"
Revelation 5:5

He is Majestic
"Who is like You - majestic in holiness,
awesome in glory, working wonders?"
Exodus 15:11

He is the Healer
"Praise the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits - 
who forgives all your sins and heals all your diseases"
Psalm 103:2-3

He is Righteousness
"There is no God apart from Me,
a righteous God and a Savior; there is none but Me"
Isaiah 45:21

He is our Shield
"Every word of God is pure;
He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him"
Proverbs 30:5

and best of all....

He is Unchanging
"I am the Lord,
I do not change"
Malachi 3:6

~ "If these should keep silent, 
the stones themselves would cry out" ~
Luke 19:40
