God’s Glory

The heavens declare the glory of God (Psalm 19:1).

We can too. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all peoples (1 Chronicles 16:24).

God’s Glory

“A glorious throne set on high from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary (Jeremiah 17:12).”

We enter God’s throne room and know love beyond measure. We see His glory, above all else. That is why we pray.

 

A Fact to Consider When you Pray: God Dwells in Dazzling Splendor

“They saw the God of Israel. There was under his feet as it were a pavement of sapphire stone, like the very heaven for clearness” (Exodus 24:10).

Think about this small glimpse of God’s glory as you approach His throne through prayer.

Intentionality in Prayer, #3

“To this end we always pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling and may fulfill every resolve for good and every work of faith by his power, so that the name of Jesus may be glorified in you (2 Thessalonians 1:11-12).”

Pray about the work of God on earth and in people’s lives.

To the Glory of God

“It is my prayer that your love may abound more and more . . . to the glory and praise of God (Philippians 1:9-11).”

Prayer produces love which brings God glory.

God’s Unseen Beauty

The skies faithfully proclaim God’s glory (from Psalm 19:1-2). Their silent, austere beauty renews itself with every sunrise and goes ungazed at by half the world.*

Be one who sees God’s beauty as you pray.

We saw God’s Love and Power and Goodness

When she told me what the leadership decided, I wanted to petition, and get others to join me, so those in charge would change their decision.

But I stopped myself. I believe God is good, powerful, loving and wise. I believe He answers prayer.

Yesterday, our prayer was answered. And all I did was pray.

To God alone be the glory.
