Day 2 - Week 32 - Revelation 4:11 "You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being."

What wonderful words of praise we have before us!  This one should start to just roll off of our tongues fairly quickly...

You are worthy, our Lord and God...

To really praise God, you have to understand how absolutely worthy He is of our praise, and that He alone carries that worth.  No one and nothing else can rival His worthiness in our hearts if we are going to truly praise Him.

We're told in Hebrews that without faith it is impossible to please God.  Hebrews 11:6, "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him."  Well, if you are not sold out to a good, solid, absolute faith in Him, don't try to force words of praise to Him.  They will ring hollow.  You cannot sincerely sing praises to God without having a heart that is yearning to be completely His, ready to surrender absolutely to His will....for He is worthy.

He is worthy of our lives, of our surrender.  He is worthy of everything that we can offer.  Through Him we have breath and life, and without Him, we are nothing but the dust from which we were created. 

If you are a person of faith, start thinking about the worthiness of God...there is none like Him.  He alone is worthy, and He alone is able to do everything that is necessary to keep this universe in balance.  He spoke it into existence, and His word keeps it going until He says "stop." 

And when that day comes, we will truly see His unveiled worth --- we will see with eyes that have been reborn into eternal vision the majesty and glory that surround Him, and we will finally understand in totality that...
YOU are worthy, our Lord and God!

I can hear it being shouted by the languages of every tribe and every nation...what a glorious time that will be!

God is worthy of our love, praise and adoration. He is the power of the universe. It is because of God's power that we exist. We are alive because He made us and He made this world. He is worthy of our praise because He gave His son for us. God's plan for this earth is for us to believe and have faith in Him and in Jesus Christ, His Son and our Savior. God is truly Worthy, He is above all things. His Glory and Grace sustains me.
