Psalm 8:1-4 NKJV
O LORD, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth, Who have set Your glory above the heavens! [2] Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have ordained strength, Because of Your enemies, That You may silence the enemy and the avenger. [3] When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained, [4] What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?
Good Morning!
One thing that we all are not good at is listening. Sometimes we need to take in the glory of God around us and just appreciate all that He has done. He shows His glory to us in many ways, birds chirping, butterflies fluttering, a wide assortment of animals that are beautiful and majestic, and landscapes that are breathtaking.
Think about the billions and billions of creatures (man, animals, fish, insects, etc.) that God gives breath to right now. Think about the earth floating in just the right place in our solar system turned at just the right angle to sustain life. Think about the atmosphere that holds the air we breath in place and gravity that keeps our feet on the ground. Think about the waves that crash on the shores and they know just where to stop so the earth doesn’t flood.
Psalm 19:1-2 NKJV
The heavens declare the glory of God; And the firmament shows His handiwork. [2] Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge.
There are so many examples around the earth that we simply cannot ignore His Glory shown through all of it. Let God speak to you through the examples that you see around you every day and listen for that still small voice that whispers to you to direct your paths. Then speak back to The Lord and share your inward thoughts through prayer and meditation on His Word.
Lastly, don’t hide your light but share it with others at every opportunity through acts of kindness and speaking life into others through the power of the Holy Spirit.
It is time to not only study the Bible, but to “do” the Bible. There are churches full of people that all they do is study the Bible, but never act on what God’s word tells us to do. Jesus’ orders were for us to “go and bear fruit.” That is simple, yet so hard for so many people.
John 15:16 NKJV
You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.
Go and bear fruit today and every day while opening your eyes and ears to see and hear what God has in store for you!
I love you and am praying for you today!
