Im confused as to why people are always so full of praise for GOD when it was supposedly his son Jesus that died for all us sinners? What exactly did GOD do to deserve all this praise?

Without God, Jesus would not have existed since Jesus was the first of all God's creations.
COLOSSIANS 1:14-16--"in whom we have the redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of the sins, who is the image of the invisible God, first-born of all creation, because in him were the all things created, those in the heavens, and those upon the earth, those visible, and those invisible, whether thrones, whether lordships, whether principalities, whether authorities; all things through him, and for him, have been created."
REVELATION 3:14--"And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write: These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God:"
PROVERBS 8:22-31--"The LORD possessed me (Jesus) at the beginning of His way, Before His works of old. I have been established from everlasting, From the beginning, before there was ever an earth.
When there were no depths I was brought forth, When there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, Before the hills, I was brought forth; While as yet He had not made the earth or the fields,Or the primal dust of the world. When He prepared the heavens, I was there, When He drew a circle on the face of the deep, When He established the clouds above, When He strengthened the fountains of the deep,
When He assigned to the sea its limit, So that the waters would not transgress His command, When He marked out the foundations of the earth, then I was beside Him as a master craftsman; And I was daily His delight, Rejoicing always before Him, Rejoicing in His inhabited world, And my delight was with the sons of men."

God is Christ and the Holy spirit. You should read genesis, revelation and Paul's letters to the Churches such as Corinthians, Ephesians, Galatians. These will help you understand the power of the trinity that is not separated. Are you new in the faith? Because if you don't know then I'm not sure if you're a Christian. The bible says that " All knees will bow and every mouth will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord" . Honey, God has different names and he took the form of a man to die for our sins. He deserves our praise and HE IS one and the same.
I pray that God bless you and opens your heart and eyes to see him.

God the Father is the one who loved the world so much He gave His only begotten Son. Jesus did what He did out of love for God the Father.

Even though it was Jesus who died for our sins, it was God who planned. Praise and thanks go to Jesus for what he did, but this must always be adressed through and towards the Father of Jesus and the Creator of all things, without which creation we would not exist.

Jesus didn't want to be worshipped, he was trying to bring us all closer to God. If you regard all the things in life that you love, and the things, people and creatures that interest you, you'll decide for yourself if God deserves your private praise.

Jesus IS God! He is the Lord of Lords and King of Kings!
See John 10 and See John 1:1

Would you send your son to die for people that didnt love and appreciate you? God did! God is worthy to be praised because he is the almighty that has created everything you know!

God created you, me and the guy next door.
God created the heavens and the earth.
It is through God that we can even take a breath everyday.
God sent his only begotten Son to pay the debt for our sins.
Now that is an awesome father, willing to find a way to restore us to intimate communion with our one and only creator.

He is the one who created us, the Heavens, the Earth, the animals, plants, the very air we breathe. That is why I praise His Holy Name. Without God, you would not exist.
