One of the things God has been showing me lately is how great He is. Whether it be through chapel, songs, Jesus times, other people’s spew on their revelation of the amazing Word, and/or my own revelations. Everything has been showing me what an amazing, absolutely awesome, drop-dead wonderful and gorgeous, jaw-dropping fantastically magnificent God truly is. And led me to realize. That it is all about Him. Every song that expresses my weakness, has been giving me a different side of the song. For example: How He Loves. I used to love this song because the amazing thought was, “Oh my goodness, I am loved…I am a wretched sinner…but I am loved!” And this thought is in no way sinful or bad. But the new side I have been seeing of this song are the two words “How He”. ‘Cause previously, I was so wrapped up with the two words “loves us,” but now, I see…it’s really How He loves. It’s how He is a promise keeping God to Abraham by saying, “through you, all nations will be blessed.” Also promising Moses that He will deliver His people out to the promise land. Just the two words “How He” reminds me of everything in the Bible. How He promised Abraham, Issac, Jacob, and the Sons of Israel. How He heard and saw the Israelites’ suffering. How He preserved the Israelites in the desert. How He led Joshua and the next generation into the promise land. How He led Samuel our of the dry spell during the times of the Judges. How He was with King David all His life. How He sovereignty used Tamar, Rahab, Ruth, and Bathsheba to be part of the Genealogy of Christ. How He waited so patiently for Israel and Judah to return to Him. How He justly exiled Israel and Judah. How He graciously brought the exiles back. How He led Nehemiah to rebuild the walls. How He came down. How He died. How He resurrected. How He gave the gift of the Holy Spirit. And how He is still with us.
It is all about God.
And we are nothing.
Not that we are worthless, disgusting mistakes or accidents because we are precious in His sight.
But because when we examine who is truly worthy of every thought, God surpasses us to the point where it is SAFE and JUST to say we are nothing.
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. (Philippians 4:8)
And so Psalm 27:4 makes so much more
One thing have I asked of the Lord,
that will I seek after:
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
all the days of my life,
to gaze upon the beauty of the Lord
and to inquire in his temple.
Brothers and sister, it is all about Him.
