David praised the Lord in the presence of the whole assembly, saying,
"Praise be to you, O Lord, God of our father Israel, from everlasting to everlasting.
Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours.
Yours, O Lord, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all.
Wealth and honor come from you; you are the ruler of all things.
In your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all.
Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name.
Observations:
-This is a great prayer of praise to our God and King.
-Everything is God's. He is ruler over all.
-Wealth, honor and strength are gifts from God, not of ourselves.

The concepts in God’s word are from God, when I misunderstand the concept it becomes mine.
Please admonish me of any of my own concepts.
Moreover, when God gives any man wealth and possessions, and enables him to enjoy them, to accept his lot and be happy in his work –this is a gift of God
King Solomon – Ecclesiastes 5:19
Any man fortunate enough to receive a gift from God is truly blessed. Many times the ability to enjoy is the gift unrealized. God may provide only one gift, but with this gift, he provides a multitude of ways to enjoy. The first is often more easy to realize than the second. If God has given you the first, earnestly seek Him and He will allow you the multitude of the second.
