I Worship Your Majesty: Honoring His Greatness

Times of prayer and bible study should bring us face to face with the majesty of God. Daily, the Christian should meditate upon the Lord and His goodness. When you think of His power and goodness, it will inspire you to worship and praise rather than doubt and complain. You will trust God for who He is in all honor and adoration.

Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, thou art very great; thou art clothed with honor and majesty. (Psalm 104:1)

The psalmist commanded his soul to bless the Lord. Christ is to be worshipped with our whole being. He is great and truly is worthy of our praise. He is deserving.

On today, remember that He is clothed with honor, glory, power, and majesty while remaining full of love and compassion. Lift your eyes to Him who is faithful and say, “I Worship Your Majesty.”

Prayer of the Week:

“Lord, I thank you for experiencing you and your excellent majesty through Christ. On today, help me to continually recognize your power fully. Amen.”

The Praise Robbers: Keep the Praises of God Guarded

In the world, we have individuals known as grave robbers. They wait until a body is placed in the ground and under the cover of darkness, they dig it up and get what they can get. Well, in our Christian walk, we have praise robbers.

What are praise robbers? They are things that come in our lives and we allow them to stop and cut off our praise. They come during the dark and difficult times in our lives. What are some praise robbers? Well, let’s see… pain, persecution, disappointment, worries, woes, trials, tests, tribulations, people, places, and thing.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or , or peril, or sword? As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. Romans 8:35-37 (KJV)

Don’t allow the praise robbers to make you a thief. Don’t allow things to separate you from God’s love. When you submit to them and withhold praise and worship, you become the chief praise robber. Your praise and worship belong to Him; remember He creates the fruit (praise) of the lips. So, on today, know that God is with you and your situation will never overturn the fact that He is worthy.

Prayer of the Week:

“Lord, grant me grace, when conflicts arise. Help me to honor you as I face conflicts. Let your will always be done. Amen.”

 

I Am Yours: We Belong to Christ

    Because of Jesus Christ, we have a relationship with the Father. He claims us as His children. We belong to Him and nothing can change this. As long as we live in Him, He will keep His hands upon us. The Song of Solomon reveals the depths of Christ’s love for the Church.

My beloved is mine, and I am his: he feedeth among the lilies. (Song of Solomon 2:16)

The damsel in this scripture declares how she and her beloved belong to one another. This is how we should view our relationship with Christ. We have Him and He certainly has us. Because of this, we should be willing to submit ourselves to Him daily; only doing those things, which please Him.

Because we belong to Him, our faith and hope in unfavorable situations should remain. Let us now declare our love and devotion to Him by saying, “I Am Yours!”

Prayer of the Week:

 I ask for a renewal on today. I remember how you have blessed me. I will recall to mind your word. Help me to stay on the right path. Amen.”
