Who Is God?
Scripture 2 Kings 19:15 Then Hezekiah prayed before the LORD, and said: “O LORD God of Israel, the One who dwells between the cherubim, You are God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth.
Observation: I believe we forget who God really is. We pray to Him and ask for things without considering the person that He is. He is the creator of all things, including ourselves and needs nothing from us, yet He loves us for some reason. We serve half heartily at times, pray as we are doing something else, give a small portion of our time and treasures to his kingdom and yet He owns it all and can destroy it in a moment. He is God our master and we need to treat Him as such, it is an honor to be able to go into his presence in prayer and to honor Him with the time he has given us.
Application: I take my Lord for granted so many times. My mind is focused on the things of this world instead of him. God needs to be my top priority all of the time and I need to trust Him with everything I have or better yet what He has given me. I need to come to him humbly each day and listen to his guidance for the day and I need to live in a way that will please him.
Prayer: My Lord, my Master and my love. Help me stay focused on your majesty and may I treat you better than I have. That you are the only reason I’m here and that you deserve everything that I have. I love you and want to honor you with this life. Help me serve you.
