The Lord is in control. He is King of Kings. He is both holy and just. He answers our prayers and yet also disciplines us for disobedience and rebellion. He is a loving Father to His people. He is worthy of praise and worship.
Praise to the LORD for His Fidelity to Israel.
1The LORD reigns, let the peoples tremble;
He is enthroned above the cherubim, let the earth shake!
2The LORD is great in Zion,
And He is exalted above all the peoples.
3Let them praise Your great and awesome name;
Holy is He.
4The strength of the King loves justice;
You have established equity;
You have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.
5Exalt the LORD our God
And worship at His footstool;
Holy is He.
6Moses and Aaron were among His priests,
And Samuel was among those who called on His name;
They called upon the LORD and He answered them.
7He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud;
They kept His testimonies
And the statute that He gave them.
8O LORD our God, You answered them;
You were a forgiving God to them,
And yet an avenger of their evil deeds.
9Exalt the LORD our God
And worship at His holy hill,
For holy is the LORD our God.
When you reflect on your life, not your intentions, is their clear evidence you are exalting the Lord? or yourself and your desires? Ask the Spirit to show you and then take time to listen, without getting defensive. Be like a child, seeking to hear the instruction from his Father as to what he should do to please Him.
