Majesty

I had the privilege of enjoying worship with some of my family yesterday.  Though it was a special treat for me to be with family I especially appreciated the selection of music. Nearly every selection emphasized the majesty of our Lord.  “Majesty” is one of those words that sounds like its meaning.  It has the feeling of kingly splendor and sovereign power.  What word could be more appropriate for our wonderful Lord?  He is the King of kings and Lord of lords!  I need to be reminded often that I serve this King and He wants to be Lord of my life.

Since I’m enjoying a couple days with my daughter and her family I’ll close with this challenge from the Apostle Paul found in 1 Timothy 6:11-16.

“But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance, and gentleness. Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses. In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen.”
