Witty – I praise you Lord for possessing such quick understanding and intelligence about people and events. “Now Jesus’ mother and brothers came to see Him, but they were not able to get near Him because of the crowd. Someone told Him, ‘Your mother and brothers are standing outside wanting to see you.’ He replied, ‘My mother and brothers are those who hear God’s word and put it into practice.’ (Lk 8:19-21)
633. Word – I praise you Lord that “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.” (John 1:1) Thank you Lord for blessing us with the Word in flesh, Jesus Christ who lives in us.
634. Word of Life – I praise you for allowing me to have such free access to the word of Life. “That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked at and our hands have touched – this we proclaim concerning the Word of Life.” (I John 1:1)
635. Worshipful – Praise you Lord for being the only God I desire to worship. Moses wrote, “Do not worship any other god, for the Lord, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.” (Ex. 34:14)
636. Worthy to Be Praised Above Everyone Else – I praise you Lord for being worthy of praise at all times. “You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power. For you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.” (Rev. 4:11)
637. Worthy to Be Thanked in Every Situation – I praise you Lord that you are worthy to give thankfulness to at all times despite the outward circumstances or my personal feelings. I thank you for the directive, “Rejoice always, and pray without ceasing, and in everything give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.” (I Thes. 5:16-18)
638. Wrath – I praise you Lord for your righteous anger. Paul wrote, “The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness.” (Rom. 1:18)

640. Writer – I praise you Lord that you not only inspired the prophets to speak your truth, but you also wrote for others to benefit from your wisdom. “They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing Him. But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with His finger. He said, “If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.” Again He stooped down and wrote on the ground.” (Jn. 8:6-8)
641. Zealous – I praise you Lord for being zealous for your reputation, purposes and people. You spoke to Ezekiel, “I will make known my holy name among my people Israel. I will no longer let my holy name be profaned and the nations will know that I the Lord am the holy One in Israel. Therefore, this is what the Sovereign Lord says, “I will not bring Jacob back from captivity and will have compassion on all the people of Israel, and I will be zealous for my holy name.” (Ezek 39:7,25)
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.” (Ephesians 1:3)
