Psalm 24
Psalm 24
The earth is the Lord's and all that is in it,
the world, and those who live in it;
for he has founded it on the seas,
and established it on the rivers.
Who shall ascend the hill of the Lord?
And who shall stand in his holy place?
Those who have clean hands and pure hearts,
who do not lift up their souls to what is false,
and do not swear deceitfully.
They will receive blessing from the Lord,
and vindication from the God of their salvation.
Such is the company of those who seek him,
who see the face of the God of Jacob.
Lift up your heads, O gates!
and be lifted up, O ancient doors!
that the King of glory may come in.
Who is the King of glory?
The Lord, strong and mighty,
the Lord, mighty in battle.
Lift up your heads, O gates!
and be lifted up, O ancient doors!
that the King of glory may come in.
Who is the King of glory?
The Lord of hosts,
he is the King of glory.
Sometimes all we need to do is rest in His glory. We need to be still and take harbor against life's storms with the King of Kings.
He is glorious. He is righteous. He is every good thing.
He is the author of this world and the creator of everything we see. He knows more about this world than we can possible imagine. He has created the foundation of this world. He has established the chief cornerstone as well through His Son and our Savior (Ephesians 2:19-22). Through His salvation we are made clean and set free from this world. We are given an eternity of Glory through our mighty King.
So even when the world feels broken, when all seems lost - we can take comfort knowing that He is not going anywhere. He is in control; He is strong and mighty.
When we focus on His glory and the gifts He has bestowed upon us: grace, forgiveness and redemption; when we meditate on His glorious love for us... the hardships in this world fade away. In light of His glory we are consumed with peace and hope.
Let us cling to His glory and majesty in the coming days and hold tight to His beautiful righteousness and powerful strength.
Let us be still. Let us rest in awe of His glory and know His perfect peace.

I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being. Ephesians 3:16
