The Glory of the Lord
Scripture Ezekiel 1:28 Like the appearance of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the brightness all around it. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD.
So when I saw it, I fell on my face, and I heard a voice of One speaking.
Observation: Ezekiel was describing his dream and in it he saw the glory of God. When he was in His presence the first thing he did was fall on his face in reverence. He described God’s glory like a bright rainbow surrounding him.
Application: I’ve experienced God’s grace, love and mercy. I can only imagine what His glory will be. Each day I try to glorify God in what I do, because He deserves everything that I have and everything should be used for His glory. I believe we are called to show God’s glory along with His love, grace and mercy to the world. So many people may not experience firsthand God’s glory unless they receive Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Our job is to help make that introduction.
Prayer My Lord I wait for the day that I’m in your presence and experience your glory first hand. May I finish this race you have set me on in a way that will glorify your name. I’m your servant help me serve you.
