Day 7 "Clothed In His Majesty"
Good Morning Beauties!
Awesome! I used to say that word a lot to express my excitement and approval towards many things. It could have been a suspenseful movie, delicious food, or good news from a friend. Everything was “awesome.” I often delivered the announcements during the service at my church, and used the word to describe the morning, the chili cook-off, the new Women’s Bible Study, and the “awesome” opportunity to work in the nursery where volunteers were needed.
After one particular service, my wise pastor talked to me in his office. He simply asked me, “If you could choose just one word to describe God, what would it be?” I immediately said, you guessed it, “Awesome.” He then went on to say, “if you use that word to describe God, could it possibly be used for anything else, or is it a word you reserve for Him?” Ever since that conversation, I use that word for God alone, because, what else am I in awe of? I can enjoy something, or take delight in something, but God alone causes me to stand in awe of His majesty.
“Be in awe before His majesty. Be in awe before such power and might! Come worship wonderful Yahweh, arrayed in all His splendor, bowing in worship as He appears in the beauty of holiness. Give Him the honor due His name. Worship Him wearing the glory-garments of your holy, priestly calling!” Psalm 29:3 The Passion Translation.
Beauties, we are given garments of His majesty to wear as His beloved. Look at what He says in Psalm 30:11, “Then He broke through and transformed all my wailing into a whirling dance of ecstatic praise! He has torn the veil and lifted from me the sad heaviness of mourning. He wrapped me in the glory garments of gladness.” The Passion Translation.
Are you walking in this gladness God has already given you? What weighs you down in the heaviness of mourning? Will you release it to Him today? Selah.
