Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Presidents, kings, prime ministers, and rulers have a host of "wise" and diplomatic counselors. Many also surround themselves with people of power and wealth who will tell them what they want to hear. There is, however, only one King of the Nations! Only One will genuinely and ultimately rule over all peoples of the earth. He is beyond compare and has no worthy rival. His name is YAHWEH, the great I AM, the Lord God Almighty, the one true and living God whom Jesus taught us to call our Abba Father. All creatures, great and small, will one day revere God and honor him as they should today. All peoples of every nation will one day bow down and worship God one day as they should today. So, let's make sure that we, as disciples of Jesus, do it today!

My Prayer...

You are worthy of all glory and power, my God and Father. You have no rival - either in reality or in my heart. Why should you care for me when you have such power and majesty? I thank you for adopting me into your royal family by your grace. I praise you for the mercy and love that you have poured into my life. I want to respond with a life that declares that there is no one like you! In the name of Jesus, I praise you. Amen.
