Psalms 148:1 "Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: Praise Him in the heights."

Psalms 148:3 "Praise ye Him, sun and moon: Praise Him, all ye stars of light."

Psalms 148:4 Praise Him, ye heavens of heavens, And ye waters that be above the heavens."

The "heavens of heavens" is the third heaven, that is the heaven that comes to this earth later. It is the eternal kingdom that comes after the great white throne judgment that sends Satan and his followers to the lake of fire.

God has made His decree, His Word, and written it down in the Scriptures; and in time heaven and earth shall pass away, but His Word shall stand for ever. Jesus told us this in Matthew 24:35. You can count on it.

Psalms 148:7 "Praise the Lord from the earth, Ye dragons, and all deeps:"

Even the animals of the earth, and the sea life big and small in the depths of the ocean praise the Lord. God created them and controls them also.

Psalms 148:9 "Mountains, and all hills; Fruitful trees, and all cedars:"

Psalms 148:10 "Beasts, and all cattle: Creeping things, and flying fowl:"

Both plant life and animal life are in reverence to God for He created all life.

Psalms 148:11 "Kings of the earth, and all people; Princes, and all judges of the earth:"

Peoples of every nation and ethnic background have been created by our Lord, for He sets up the nations and He takes nations down.

Psalms 148:12 "Both young men, and maidens; Old men, and children:"

Both in your youth and in your old age, you should praise the Lord.

Psalms 148:13 "Let them praise the name of the Lord: For His name alone is excellent; His glory is above the earth and heaven."

You had better praise and appreciate our Father for He is good to us, and gives us our blessings and protection. He is the one that gives eternal life, for He is a merciful God.

Psalms 148:14 "He also exalteth the horn of His People, The praise of all His saints; Even of the children of Israel, a People near unto Him, Praise ye the Lord."

Leviticus 10:3 "Then Moses said unto Aaron, "This is it that the Lord spake, saying, `I will be sanctified in them that come nigh Me, and before all the people I will be glorified.' " And Aaron held his peace." If you are one of His saints, you will come nigh unto the Lord and God will be sanctified in you. Others will see Him in your and be drawn to our Father what they see in your life.
