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)

You have proclaimed Your name: The LORD, the LORD God, compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in loving-kindness and truth, keeping loving-kindness for thousands, forgiving iniquity, transgression, and sin. Exodus 34:6-7(NASB) And this name of Yours is my strong tower. Proverbs 18:10(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)

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.

Behold, these are but the fringes of His ways; and how faint a word I hear of God! But His mighty thunder, who can understand? Job 26:14(NASB)

Touching the Almighty – I cannot find Him; He is exalted in power, and He will not do violence to justice and abundant righteousness. Job 37:23(NASB) He is exalted far above all blessing and praise! Nehemiah 9:5(NASB)
