Isaiah 25:1 (KJV) O LORD, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.
When God in anger strikes a city, a country, or the earth as a whole, is this a reason for praise? Those in fellowship with God will grieve for the misery that comes to men, but may praise God that He is working His purposes out, faithfully and justly, judging wickedness, and saving and protecting His people in the midst of disaster.
God has always been faithful and He is the truth. He has always existed, and He has done amazing things which we can’t hardly comprehend. When is the last time you praised God simply because He is God, Creator of Heaven and Earth? We often thank Him for what He does for us, but we forget to praise Him for being God. Let’s remember to praise Him, because all of creation praises Him and we should join in the song.
