Be Thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let Thy glory be above all the earth.
Psalm 57:11

God must be exalted.

Why do we exalt Him?

  • He is a great God who created the heavens and the earth. His supremacy is beyond our imagination. He must be glorified.

Be exalted O God above the heavens and let your glory be over all the earth
Psalm 108:5

  • He is Holy.

Exalt the Lord our God and worship at His footstool, He is holy.
Psalm 99:5

  • He is my God in whom I trust. For He is faithful and loves us unconditionally.

You are my God and I will give thanks; You are my God and I will exalt You.
Psalm118:28

  • He has done great things. You know God has done so many great things in our lives. We are alive today because of His grace and mercy and favour, protection. He must be exalted for all this.

And in that day you will say,
“Give thanks to the Lord, call on His name.
Make known His deeds among the peoples;
Make them remember that His name is exalted.”
Isaiah 12:4

Lord, You are my God;
I will exalt You and praise Your name,
for in perfect faithfulness
You have done wonderful things,
things planned long ago.
Isaiah 25:1

  • He is a God of justice and covered with righteousness. And this righteousness it was imputed in us when we accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.

The Lord is exalted for He dwells on high, He will fill Zion with justice and righteousness.
Isaiah 33:5

EXALTATION

I will bless the Lord at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.
Psalms 34:1-3

The writer of this psalm praises the Lord for a miraculous deliverance from great trouble. His testimony encourages all afflicted believers to believe that they may also experience the goodness of the Lord.

As we exalt the Lord we express our gratitude to Him for all that He has done. Praise and thanksgiving are basic elements in the believers life.

We must thank the Lord through His Son Jesus morning and evening for salvation, for His love and grace, and for His faithful guidance and care. We should express our gratitude for the Word of God and for His spiritual gifts.

We need to exalt God despite the circumstances we are facing. Just thinking of His wonderful deeds…hey!!! A song of praise should start on our mouth. And it feels good even to us as worshippers…what more for the One being exalted? I guess it is time we make a decision to exalt God since it is supposed to be a believer’s lifestyle. Praising Him and giving thanks in the name of the Lord Jesus.

Lord, I thank You for all that You have done in our lives. We exalt You because You are a great God. We shall exalt You as long as we live. Be glorified Lord in Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen!!!
