Bible Commentary

Psalms 150:2

Here the psalm answers WHY we praise: because of what God has done (His mighty acts in history and in our lives) and because of who God is (His excellent, surpassing greatness). Both reasons are inexhaustible.

Memory phrase: Praise God — He is great!

Talk about it: What is one amazing thing God has done that makes you want to praise Him?

Prayer: God, I praise You for what You have done and for who You are. You are so great!
