Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research. The Four I Wills of Worship I will praise you, O Lord, with my whole heart. I will show forth all your marvelous works. I will be glad and rejoicing you. I will sing praise to your name, O Most High. Psalm 9 1 to 2. Praising the Great I Am is the most heavenly of Christian duties. The triumphs of the Redeemer ought to be the triumphs of the redeemed. These two verses shift the worshippers' attention to the giver of grace, whose marvelous works reflect his greatness. These four I Wills demonstrate David's desire to praise God with a sincere heart and emphasize his resolve to praise God publicly. Heart felt gratitude and praise should always be on the lips of God's redeemed. I will praise is a Christian's natural response to who God is and what he's done for him. He praises God's great name when he meditates on his unchanging attributes. I will tell of all God's marvelous works is captured in one Hebrew word used especially in reference to God's redemptive miracles. Secular writings describe such works figuratively as ones that take your breath away. I will be glad and rejoice and I will sing praises to the Almighty are repeated many times in the Psalms and O Most High depicts God as the exalted ruler of his creation always vindicating his children and judging the wicked. The believer purely worships God when he praises, speaks, rejoices, and sings to the Most High how great you are our Lord and greatly to be praised.
