THE GLORY OF GOD

The heavens declare the glory of God;

    the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

Day after day they pour forth speech;

    night after night they reveal knowledge.

They have no speech, they use no words;

    no sound is heard from them.

Yet their voice goes out into all the earth,

    their words to the ends of the world.

In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.

It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, like a champion rejoicing to run his course.

                                                      - Psalms 19  verse 1 - 5

The visible universe does declare the glory of God. The beauty and vastness and wonders of our universe display the unimaginable skill and power of our Lord.

The heavens, in spiritual terms, also declare the glory of God. They shed abroad the incredible riches and majesty of the most High.  The ear that is inclined to hear will perceive the ongoing exaltation of the great God of heaven. 

This broadcasting is not in word or speech but is a voice carrying knowledge that reaches all corners of the world. 

In this spiritual realm, the 'sun'  has a tent from which he emerges like a bridegroom to complete his circuit.

The glory of God should be our permanent pursuit. Our thoughts, our words and our actions should glorify God all the days of our lives.

Amen.
