A Prayer of Praise

Psalm 24 (NLT)
The earth is the LORD’s, and everything in it.
The world and all its people belong to him.
For he laid the earth’s foundation on the seas and built it on the ocean depths.
Who may climb the mountain of the LORD?
Who may stand in his holy place?
Only those whose hands and hearts are pure, who do not worship idols and never tell lies.
They will receive the LORD’s blessing and have right standing with God their savior.
They alone may enter God’s presence and worship the God of Israel.
Interlude
Open up, ancient gates!
Open up, ancient doors, and let the King of glory enter.
Who is the King of glory?
The LORD, strong and mighty, the LORD, invincible in battle.
Open up, ancient gates!
Open up, ancient doors, and let the King of glory enter.
Who is the King of glory?
The LORD Almighty–he is the King of glory.
Interlude

A Theme to Remember:
All that is and all that will ever be belongs to God, our Creator. He alone is worthy to be named King of kings and Lord of lords.

Words to Remember:
If any one would tell you the shortest, surest way to all happiness and all perfection, he must tell you to make it a rule to yourself to thank and praise God.
