OUR FATHER WHOM WE EXTOL AND WHOM WE EXTOL TO OTHERS

Psalm chapter 99 verse 3 - 4  says this;

Let them praise your great and awesome name— he is holy.

The King is mighty, he loves justice—you have established equity; in Jacob you have done  what is just and right.

This passage exhorts the people of God to praise the great and awesome name of the Lord who is Holy and who loves justice. 

The passage then addresses the Lord, the King of Zion,  with honor for the things He has done for Jacob that are Just and right.

The whole chapter alternates between speaking of the Lord in third person (He loves justice) and addressing him in second person (you have established equity).

The Psalmist is pivoting between addressing the people about the Lord and addressing the Lord directly. Following, is the whole of chapter 99 color coded to show this pattern. 

The Lord reigns, let the nations tremble; he sits enthroned between the cherubim, let the earth shake. Great is the Lord in Zion; he is exalted over all the nations.

Let them praise your great and awesome name—he is holy. 

The King is mighty, he loves justice—you have established equity; in Jacob you have done what is just and right.

Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his footstool; he is holy.

Moses and Aaron were among his priests,  Samuel was among those who called on his name; they called on the Lord and he answered them. He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his statutes and the decrees he gave them.

Lord our God, you answered them; you were to Israel a forgiving God, though you punished their misdeeds.

Exalt the Lord our God and worship at his holy mountain, for the Lord our God is holy.

This Psalm give us a model for our lives where we honor the Lord by speaking to Him directly with praise and affirmations of His greatness and goodness. 

Then we also honor the Lord when we speak to other people of His greatness and goodness and when we exhort others to honor and praise Him.

Amen.
