Psalm 150:1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.

2 Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.

3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.

4 Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.

5 Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.

6 Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

God uses the Hebrew word translated as "praise" in this psalm 13 times. 13 the number that again and again in the Bible points to the end of the world.

Praise is mentioned 13 times because it is after 13,000 years of earth's history that God begins the judgment at the house of God (church) in the year 1988. And God is to be praised in His righteous judgment.

Praise is mentioned 13 times because it is shortly after 13,000 years (in 1994) that God begins once again to evangelize the world with the latter rain. And God is to be praised by extending forth His hand a second time to recover the remnant of His elect people.

Praise is mentioned 13 times because it is 13,000 +23 years when God transitions to the final judgment of mankind (on May 21, 2011). And God is to be praised for His righteous judgment program.

Praise is mentioned 13 times because it is after 13,000 years of history that God finally completes His salvation program and saves the last one of His elect children. And God is to be praised for extending His long suffering mercy for so long and for saving all those predestined to become saved before the foundation of the world.

13 times God emphasizes praise because it is at 13,000 years that He completes His salvation program and saves the last one of His elect. Salvation has come to the uttermost. Praise ye the LORD!
