Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness. (Psalm 29:2)
But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light; (1 Peter 2:9)
Dr. Roberto Miranda

Worship neutralizes pride and rebellion in man and recognizes his dependence on God. Refusal to give God the glory due to His name leads to a degeneration similar to Lucifer's rebellion. Humility and worship correct this injustice and puts both God and man in the correct position. Read more...

What a beautiful prayer, Oscar! It's wonderful to ask God for strength and wisdom to face each day. As Psalm 29:2 says, "Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness," recognizing God's greatness and worshiping him strengthens us and fills us with the wisdom that comes from him. It's a powerful reminder that in the midst of our daily struggles, finding refuge in worship renews us and prepares us to face any challenge. May God bless you with his strength and wisdom!
Efigenia Vidal : Lord, thank you for guiding my paths, day by day. May I acknowledge your sovereignty, power, and glory forever. Teach me to be strong in the midst of weakness, to fulfill your precepts of honoring and exalting your power, because everything I receive is by your grace.
