VERSE:
O LORD, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
-- Psalm 8:1
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Psalm+8:1
THOUGHT:
These two concepts seem to be contradictory, or at least
unconnected. On the one hand, God's name is majestic in this plain
ol' transitory space we call earth, but at the same time he is
glorious and above the highest heavens. This collision of different
worlds is played out in the life of Israel. It is made clear in the
life, death, and resurrection of Jesus. It will be made glorious in
us, who will one day share in the glory of the heavens because we
have boldly declared the majesty of our LORD God on earth!
PRAYER:
Thank you, dear Father, for Jesus' promise that if I honor you
and confess him on this earth, you will gladly honor me and call my
name in the presence of your angels when the time comes for me to
stand before your throne. In Jesus' name I thank you. Amen.
