gloryinthehighest

“From the rising of the sun to its going down, the Lord’s name is to be praised. The Lord is high above all nations, His glory above the heavens. Who is like the Lord our God, who dwells on high?” Psalm 113:3-5

Go somewhere far. I mean real far. Get in your car and travel to a distant land. Well, not that far. But far enough to where the city lights disappear. Park the car on the side of the road, get out and look up at the stars, and what will you see? You will see the majesty and wonders of God. And somewhere up there in the spiritual realm, God Almighty sits upon His throne, above the earth, above all the nations, and above the heavens. The Psalmist proclaims, “Who is like the Lord our God, who dwells on high?”. There is no other who can do the things that our God can do. The prophet Isaiah declares in chapter 44, verse 6, “Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel, and His Redeemer, the Lord of hosts: ‘I am the First and I am the Last; Besides Me there is no God.’”

God has created the moon, the stars, planets, mountains and yes, even ugly looking bugs. Life may be too busy to include all the things that you want to do. Just make sure that you take time out and gaze upon the glory in the highest. Remember, “The Lord is high above all nations, His glory above the heavens. Who is like the Lord our God, who dwells on high?”.

    Do You Love Your Church?
    I love what Jesus says about the church. The church is the bride of Christ. He loves the church because the church is a place where we tell people about Jesus and what He did for us. It’s a place where we can share each others burdens and be a family. When you brag on [...]

    The Spirit is Moving
    The word of God says that Jesus has ascended into heaven and at this very time sits at the right hand of God the Father. If that is not enough for you, according to John 16:7, Jesus sends us the Holy Spirit to live within each believer. John 16:8 also happens to give us the [...]

    Lead!
    When we think of Moses, we think “Leader” with a capital L. The guy was awesome! It seemed like daily he would look to heaven and say “OK God, what next?!” And as another day passed, Moses would again look to heaven and say “How about today, Lord, tell me what to do.” Moses was [...]

Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.
