Glory Among the Nations?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for all those who declare your glory among the nations. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Today, people from around the world can find themselves in close proximity to those who have never ventured far from home. The world has come to our doorsteps. A number of factors account for this, including immigration. Because people from different nations and diverse cultures now live nearby, it is possible to declare his glory among the nations without traveling far and wide.
Psalm 96:1-5 (ESV) is about singing a new song to the lord and declaring his glory.
“Oh sing to the Lord a new song;
sing to the Lord, all the earth!
Sing to the Lord, bless his name;
tell of his salvation from day to day.
Declare his glory among the nations,
his marvelous works among all the peoples!
For great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised;
he is to be feared above all gods.
For all the gods of the peoples are worthless idols,
but the Lord made the heavens.”
Be bold in declaring God’s glory. Think of the marvelous works he has done. Praise him. Do not worship counterfeits. False gods did not make the heavens.
