“Give unto the LORD the glory due unto his name; worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness.” – Psalm 29:2
_______________ In view of the vivid display of God’s power in the storm, the psalmist calls on the angels in heaven to acknowledge the existence of a power so much greater than their own. Although this was addressed to the angels, all of God's creatures should give glory and honor to His name, recognizing Him as the God of glory who possesses power that is beyond any of His creatures and beyond anything we can imagine. He should be acknowledged as the one who is truly powerful and magnificent. God deserves our praise, worship, and admiration for who he is and his amazing works. It is right and fitting that we should give to Him the glory due to his name and worship him in the beauty of holiness. There is nothing more important than this. We wouldn't even exist without His power. We would have nothing at all apart from His grace, compassion, and kindliness. How are we to worship him? "In the beauty of holiness." Beauty is the expression of holiness in the works of our Father in heaven. It is a testament to His perfect design and perfect workmanship. When something is well-made, it shows that the designer was thoughtful and careful in their work, and that it was done with excellence and splendor. We owe God our utmost respect and gratitude for all he has done for us and for all we have, as well as for the privilege of enjoying and experiencing the beauty of his work. May he help us stir ourselves to give Him the glory due to his name, and to worship Him in the beauty of holiness. Amen. ___________ By Gale Henderson. All rights reserved.
