What does the Bible say about magnifying the Lord?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible, particularly in Luke 1:46-47, emphasizes that magnifying the Lord involves recognizing His greatness and praising Him for His mercy.

In Luke 1:46-47, Mary expresses that her soul magnifies the Lord because her spirit rejoices in God her Savior. Magnifying the Lord does not suggest that we can make Him any greater than He is, for He is already infinitely above our highest thoughts. Instead, it means having larger, truer conceptions of His greatness and making His mighty acts known. When we meditate on God’s attributes and proclaim His glory, we facilitate a greater understanding of Him, both for ourselves and others. Thus, magnifying the Lord involves an active and ongoing acknowledgment of His majesty, goodness, and grace.
