“Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to Your name give glory because of Your lovingkindness, because of Your truth. Why should the nations say, “Where, now, is their God?” But our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases.” (Psalm 115:1-3)

The battle in the world is easy to see. There are those who know that the Lord God made all things and that honor and glory belong to Him. Then, there are those who are vying for honor to get glory for themselves. You see it all around you. Which of these people will you be? To whom shall you render honor and glory? The Lord alone is worthy of all honor and praise.

Lord teach me where I am caught up in the nonsense of this age. Lead me away from the way of the world to see things as they always have been. You are unchanging, gracious and merciful. In Your mercy, open my eyes to see and my ears to hear the immutable truth that You alone are beyond the ages and yet You have made Yourself known to those who have eyes to see and ears to hear.

Lord Jesus, You have come that we may see the light and come into a life of praise and worship. Lead me, O Lord, to the place where, in spite of the noise of the wicked, I live in praise and worship of You in eternal Trinity. Guide my thoughts and actions to reflect a life of praise and worship. May I abide in You knowing that in You alone is the hope of the ages. Amen.
