Quite a song… God’s majesty exalted; the people’s sin exposed and punished; eventual redemption, restoration and atonement. It is the song of history, the basic story line of the Bible.
The continuous thread is the wonder, majesty, and awe of the One who created, called forth a nation, established and guided that nation, corrected and rebuked her when she fell short and eventually comes to her aid and restoration results. It is God’s Song.
I am awed at the majesty of God Who knows the end as well as the beginning. God knows. God KNOWS! It is as if the span of time is in one photograph to the Lord.
My mind flows down God’s wonder trail. “In the beginning God…” (Gen 1:1) begins the Bible. God always was and always will be. Outside of time Himself, and yet God created time and from time to time God enters time to reveal Himself, to call a people to Himself and to save and restore them when they fall. God sees the end. God orchestrates the end. God is in absolute control.
This is the God who has called a people to Himself through faith in Jesus –the One and Only Son- and Who holds and guarantees our eternity in and by His hands.
This is the God I praise as I begin today.
Praise be to God, the Almighty the King of Creation. O my soul sings of His faith and salvation. All you who hear now to His presence draw near. Join me in glad adoration!
Praise You Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Praise and bless You. Amen.
