There are two things at play when we worship God as creatures who can think and reason, but are also feeling and passionate. For the western world, these concepts are often reverse order presented in the passage. In the passage we acknowledge, as with most psalms, God’s overall majesty. For the psalmist, there is to be a certain level of praise afforded upon this simple truth. The concept here is that on the basis of God’s ontology alone, he is to be respected and well regarded. We do this on a small scale with some animals that we call majestic. On a larger scale we speak of elemental forces in this way. Things like fire and the ocean are to marveled as much as they are to be feared. Yet, the passage also demands that our rationale mind be equally engaged. The western world views this as a far superior outlook, but it’s arguable. The psalmist gives humanity reasons that are ultimately personal and smaller in scope than majesty alone. He notes the specific ways in which God was personal and intentional and calls for worship on this level as well. Ultimately, worship in Psalm 99 is a juxtaposition of the two ideas. Worship ought to be on a personal level as much as it should be on an impersonal level. God is not one or the other. He is both holy and with us. One could argue that this mystery is another level on which he should be worshipped.
