Praise the LORD! Praise, O servants of the LORD, praise the name of the LORD!
God's excellence towers far above the heavens, yet He deigns to cast His eyes upon the earth and govern all things according to His will. When you see sudden changes in the world, do not lose sight of His providence; He permits no disorder that is not under His sovereign direction.

Commenting on Psalm 113:1-9
Praise must flow from those who serve God best, for His service itself is praise. Prayer asks for mercy; praise blesses Him for mercies already given. Ye who are His own servants above all others, let your devotion pour out entire unto Jehovah only, for if His servants do not praise Him, who will?
AI summary
Praise is pressed upon us repeatedly because we are slow to it, yet those who serve Him know Him best and have the most reason to praise Him. It is their business to speak well of their Master; if they do not, who should?
