Seeing everything in life as an opportunity to worship God!
In today’s devotional based on the song called, “Revelation Song”, we learn of why it is important to stand in awe at the revelation of Jesus Christ!
I hope and pray that this devotional will inspire worship in your heart! Enjoy.
Our Song of the Day is called, “Glorious”, by Brian and Katie Torwalt.
Our lives are meant to be lived in such a way that the Lord will be glorified as others observe us! We are His representatives on this earth, created in His image to reflect a glorious God back to the world.
In today’s devotional we discover the connection between God’s glory and His creation, and how we as His creation are to reflect His glory to the world around us!
Enjoy!
Our Song of the Day called “Open up the Heavens” helps us to express our desire for God to reveal Himself! I pray this devotional will help you give expression to your prayer to see God’s glory as well!
Jesus left His place of Glory, Heaven, and came to this Earth to fulfill the Father’s plan of redemption. The Earth was full of sin and darkness, and there was nothing that mankind was able to do on its own to produce light. We need a Savior, we needed light to overcome the darkness!
This Christmas season we are reminded that God almighty, the God of glory, the majestic King, brought Heaven to Earth in His Son, Jesus Christ! He did this to redeem the whole creation to Himself. His purpose was to erase the lines of separation between Himself and the nations of the world to make it possible for all the nations of the world to unite around One Kingdom – Heaven! When we choose to claim the King of kings as our very own King, we become a part of that eternal, celestial Kingdom forever! Hallelujah!
Have you seen the glories of His righteousness and the wonders of His love in your life? If so, you understand what Peter was saying in 1 Pet 1:8 when he said that we are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy! Respond by singing and lifting up your praises to God at all times!
When we offer our hearts in worship to the Lord for His work of redemption, we are then Glorifying Him in the highest form! Worshipful and devoted hearts from mankind is the supreme expression of glory to God. This is the highest form of glory from us to Him. Although God does not need our worship to be glorified, He does absolutely desire it!
The plan that included a Babe in a manger, resulted in all of humanity having access to forgiveness and reconciliation to the very God we offend and reject daily! God is not holding the worlds sins against them, but pleading with us all to be reconciled to Him through Jesus! That means that He removed the very thing that was blocking all of us from experiencing Him – sin. Christ became that sin for us, so that we can finally stand righteous before Him!
Seeing God is both a hope for the future and a hope for God’s manifest presence and activity in our lives today. We want to see Him heal, deliver, restore, reconcile, forgive, and so on right now. And we want to see Him in glory when this life is over and we move on to the next!
