Bless the LORD, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. Psalms 103:20 (kjv)

Our opening scripture is a command to the elect angels of the LORD of Hosts. God's Angels that excel in strength, do His commandments, and hearken unto the voice of the LORD, are commanded to bless the LORD.

This is awesome, because God only accepts praise and worship from godly creation. He doesn't accept praise and worship from devils and demons.

Jesus rejected praise from demons:

7 He shouted at the top of his voice, "what do You want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? In God's name don't torture me!"
8 For Jesus had said to him, "come out of this man you impure spirit!" Mark 5:7-8 (NIV)

Likewise, Apostle Paul did not accept praise from demons:

16 Once when we were going to the place of prayer we were met by a female slave who had a spirit by which she predicted the future. She earned a great deal of money for her owners by fortune-telling.
17 She followed Paul and the rest of us, shouting, "These men are servants of the Most High God, who are telling you the way to be saved."
18 She kept this up for many days. Finally Paul became so annoyed that he turned around and said to the spirit, "In the name of Jesus Christ l command you to come out of her!" At that moment the spirit left her. Acts 16:16-18 (NIV)

Mankind, who are created in the image of God, can offer blessings, praise/worship, and hear the voice of the LORD better than the angels simply because they are God's image.

The born again Christian has a greater responsibility here to offer holy blessings, praise /worship, and hear the voice of God better than all of God's creation.

We need to praise/worship Him more than ask for our needs. Therefore, endeavour to praise/worship God more than you ask for your needs.

Thanks For Reading!

Those Who Praise/Worship God In Holiness Have Their Needs Met Even Before They Ask!!

The only food we can offer God is praise and worship.

Very correct @prettyjules, thanks for that awesome reply!

Powerful piece. We humans were created for His pleasure meaning to make him happy. And the only way to do that is honour him and praise him. Praise him in your works,talk,every thing we do.

I remember a shocking verse He showed me in the book of job one time. Job 4:18

He charges his angels with folly.

Thats a great contribution from you, thanks for sharing yours words!

Thanks for blessing us again with God's word

To God be the glory! @fatherfaith, your comment is highly appreciated! !
