Is God Big Enough for You?

Sometimes we forget.

We forget that God is high and lifted up.

He rules...

over heaven...

and over earth.

All powers and authorities are ruled over by Him.

Our lives, our homes, our careers--everything that makes up our world is determined by our Loving Father who sits undeterred on His throne.

For this reason, now is a good time to worship Him through prayer.

Consider praying this prayer today:

The Glory of God

  Lord, You are holy, distinct and separate from all other things. 

  You are exalted over all the nations and you live above and beyond all creation. 

  The stain of sin and evil that defiled the world never had any effect on You. 

  You have always been morally perfect and separate (or transcendent) from the rest of Your fallen creation. 

  None of us has ever fully grasped your glory, however, a few people witnessed a portion of your holiness. 

Moses asked to see your glory and You hid him in the cleft of a rock, and allowed Your glory to pass before him. (Exodus 33:20) When Moses came back from spending time in Your presence, His “face was radiant.” (Exodus 34:29).  

Later Isaiah was given a vision of You seated on your throne, surrounded by seraphim who called out to one another, ‘Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of his glory.’ And he cried out, “Woe is me!” (Isaiah 6:3). 

Ezekiel had a similar experience and fell facedown (Ezekiel 1:28). 

We acknowledge that as new creations in Christ, we have also been set apart to live righteous lives. 

Give us an appreciation of Your glory so that we might produce fruit and reveal Your glory to others.

Amen.
