What does the Bible say about praising God?

Answered in 21 sources

The Bible emphasizes that praising God is the purpose of creation and salvation, as seen in Psalms where it is stated that everything that has breath should praise the Lord.

The Bible teaches that the purpose of creation is to glorify and praise God. As indicated in Psalm 145, David begins and ends his psalm with a call to praise the Lord. This isn't merely an act of worship, but rather the very reason for our existence—both in creation and in salvation. Every gathering of believers centers around the act of praising God for His mercies, greatness, and works throughout history. Our lives are to be marked by a consistent commitment to extol God's name, acknowledging His sovereignty and goodness.
