| Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth. |
| —Psalm 96:9 |
The magnificence of God’s holiness is so overwhelming that all who enter His Presence find themselves bowing before Him and even hiding their faces from Him. Yet, part of the wonder of belonging to Jesus is that, as God’s one and only Son, we can stand in His Presence and experience the reality of God. In Christ, we meet God face to face. Our only reasonable response is to worship Him. The Psalmist writes these words in Psalm 96:9:
Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth.
At the beginning of this new day, let’s remain conscious of the fact that—in all that we say and all that we do—we worship the God who loves us and gave His Son as the sacrifice for our sins. Let’s revere His Name, serve Him with devoted hearts, and lovingly and tenderly share what He has done in our behalf to a world who needs to hear this critically important message.
