His Kingdom On The Rise -- September 6, 2009

Then the seventh angel sounded: And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!” And the twenty-four elders who sat before God on their thrones fell on their faces and worshiped God, saying: “We give You thanks, O Lord God Almighty, The One who is and who was and who is to come, Because You have taken Your great power and reigned.

Revelation 11:15-17

When the trumpet sounds and God’s kingdom is announced those who God has given place to in heaven will initiate worship. Thanks will be given to the eternal God who has been ruling behind the scenes from beginning. God will be worshipped because He has used His power to take control of our entire universe and begun His direct rule.

I need to be ready to worship God whenever He interacts in my life. Recently I asked for a schedule change from my employer. I expected to lose benefits because of the reduction of hours. However my boss who the Lord has given me favor with arranged for me to keep all of my benefits! I couldn’t believe it. I have been telling everyone this week and I have been praying for the Lord to help me be wisely productive on the job so that I can honor Him there.

Thanks to You, Jesus. You were, You are, and You always will be! I worship You for acting in my life. Let me be and initiator of praise and worship. I worship You because You set my world in order.

On My Face,

Pastor Jason
