Give Glory to God as the Creator of the World

Adoration 1.10 | NASB

I must give glory to Him as the Creator of the world and the great Protector, Benefactor, and Ruler of the whole creation.

Worthy are You, my Lord and my God, to receive blessing and honor and glory and power; for You have created all things, and because of Your will and for Your praise they exist and have been created. Revelation 4:11(NASB)

I worship Him who made the heaven and the earth and sea and springs of waters; Revelation 14:7(NASB) who spoke, and it was done; who commanded, and it stood fast; Psalm 33:9(NASB) who said, “Let there be light,” and there was light; Genesis 1:3(NASB) “Let there be a firmament,” and he made the firmament; Genesis 1:6-7(NASB) and he made all very good; Genesis 1:31(NASB) and they stand this day according to his ordinances, for all things are his servants. Psalm 119:91(NASB)

Yours is the day, Yours also is the night; You have prepared the light and the sun. You have established all the boundaries of the earth; You have made summer and winter. Psalm 74:16-17(NASB)

You uphold all things by the word of Your power, Hebrews 1:3(NASB) and in You all things hold together. Colossians 1:17(NASB)

The earth is full of Your possessions, as is the great and broad sea. Psalm 104:24-25(NASB) The eyes of all look to You, and You give them their food in due time: You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing. Psalm 145:15-16(NASB) You preserve man and beast, Psalm 36:6(NASB) and give food to all flesh. Psalm 136:25(NASB)

You alone are the LORD; You have made the heavens, the heaven of heavens with all their host; the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them; You give life to all of them; and the heavenly host bows down before You, Nehemiah 9:6(NASB) whose sovereignty rules over all. Psalm 103:19(NASB)

A sparrow does not fall to the ground apart from You. Matthew 10:29(NASB)

You made man at first of dust from the ground and breathed into him the breath of life, and so he became a living being. Genesis 2:7(NASB)

And You have made from that one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation. Acts 17:26(NASB)

You are the Most High, who rules over the realm of mankind and bestows it on whomever You wish; Daniel 4:25(NASB) for from You comes justice for man. Proverbs 29:26(NASB)

Praise God for His Heavenly Splendor and Glory

Adoration 1.9 | NASB

I must give to God the praise of that splendor and glory wherein He is pleased to manifest Himself in the upper world.

You have established Your throne in the heavens, Psalm 103:19(NASB) and it is a throne of glory, lofty and exalted; and before You the seraphim cover their faces. Isaiah 6:1-2(NASB) And it is in compassion to Your people that You obscure the face of that throne and spread Your cloud over it. Job 26:9(KJV)

You make Your angels spirits, and Your ministers flames of fire. Psalm 104:4(NASB) Thousands of thousands of them minister to You, and myriads of myriads stand before You, to do Your pleasure. Revelation 5:11(NASB) They are mighty in strength, and obey the voice of Your word. Psalm 103:20-21(NASB) And I have come by faith and hope and holy love into a spiritual communion with those myriads of angels and the spirits of the righteous made perfect, even to the general assembly and church of the firstborn, in the heavenly Jerusalem. Hebrews 12:22-23(NASB)

Acknowledge God’s Unchanging Truth and Greatness

That His truth is invariable, and the treasures of His goodness inexhaustible.

You are good, and Your loving-kindness is everlasting. Psalm 136:1(NASB)

Your loving-kindness is great towards me, Psalm 117:2(NASB) and Your faithfulness is to all generations. Psalm 100:5(NASB)

You are good and do good, Psalm 119:68(NASB) good to all; and Your mercies are over all Your works. Psalm 145:9(NASB) But surely God is in a special manner good to Israel, to those who are pure in heart. Psalm 73:1(NASB)

O that You would make Your goodness pass before me, Exodus 33:19(NASB) that I may taste and see that the Lord is good, Psalm 34:8(NASB) and his loving-kindness may be always before my eyes. Psalm 26:3(NASB)

Lastly, that when I have said all I can of the glorious perfections of the Divine nature, I fall infinitely short of the merit of the subject.
