Our Heart Song To God

Revelation 5:13

And I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and in the sea, and all that is in them, saying, “To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be blessing and honor and glory and might forever and ever!”

“Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come. Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come. Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come. Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come. Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come....” (Revelation 4:8b, repeated)

Is this our heart’s song to God? Do we desire to praise Him because HE IS HOLY? Because He is LORD? Because He is MIGHTY? Because He is ETERNAL? Because He is GOD? May we dwell upon this verse and see the levity of it. This verse can be restated as such, “So holy is God. Holy beyond comprehension. Holy describes Him, because He is perfectly and completely Holy. When I dwell upon the thought of His holiness, I cannot begin to fathom it. I tremor with remorse because I know how disgusting and unholy I am. However, great is the Holy One who REDEEMED me and made me as He is, holy. He is the beginning of all. He made us. He is the Creator and never leaves. He is near to me and knows everything about me, past, present and future. He holds me in His hands, ALWAYS.”

We are told in Scripture that on a day every tongue will confess and every knee will bow because God is the Lord over all Creation. Since that day is coming, I pray that we sing this song to Him every day and we confess Him every day starting now. May we not wait to sing this song when it is too late. May we live lives that reflect this now. May our lives revolve around God and His precepts. May we abide in Him. May we seek Him above all else. May we give our all for Him our of crazy love, because He loved us with CRAZIER love. May our lives give Him all the glory and all of the honor and all of the might in us. May we sing praises to His name. May we love Him with all of our hearts. This life is the training ground for eternity. If we sing praises to God now, we will sing them in eternity. However, if we praise ourselves or sin, we will praise sin for all eternity with a hardened heart towards God and a deep seeded hatred towards Him and all that is good. We truly do reap what we sow.
