DAILY DEVOTIONAL OF THE
CHURCH OF NIGERIA (ANGLICAN COMMUNION)
DATE: MONDAY, JANUARY 01, 2024
TOPIC: THE REAL MAJESTY
READ: PSALM 8:1-9 (NKJV)
[1] O Lord, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth, Who have set Your glory above the heavens!
[2] Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants You have ordained strength, Because of Your enemies, That You may silence the enemy and the avenger.
[3] When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained,
[4] What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?
[5] For You have made him a little lower than the angels, And You have crowned him with glory and honor.
[6] You have made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet,
[7] All sheep and oxen— Even the beasts of the field,
[8] The birds of the air, And the fish of the sea That pass through the paths of the seas.
[9] O Lord, our Lord, How excellent is Your name in all the earth!
THE MESSAGE:
2022 passed as one of the very significant years of our generation. One of the events that marked the year was the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, the longest reigning monarch in British history. Her funeral service, watched by billions of people on earth, was one of the final parts of the public ceremony of her burial. However, one thing that stood out throughout the whole event was the majestic ways that ‘Her Majesty’ was mourned and buried. Watching aspects of this, I couldn’t help but think of the real ‘Majesty’ – the Lord Himself! When you think of the word ‘majestic’, you will have such image words like imposing, grandiose, magnificent, splendid, resplendent, superb, and impressive in your mind, and this wil give you an idea of what God’s name implies.
God’s name cannot be separated from who He is and what He does. A person’s name carries his authority, personality, character and nature. This should help us in appreciative worship. Heaven’s intention is that all over the earth, God’s name should cause such reaction of godly reverent awe! What is more?! His glory, splendour and beauty, are above the heavens! In other words, nothing on earth is sufficient to describe the wonder and magnificence of God. Next time you take time to worship, just remember that He is basically above whatever you can say or imagine. This should make us fall before this awesome God who is the real Majesty!’
PRAYER: Indeed, Lord, Your name is truly Majestic in all the earth!. Amen.
HAPPY NEW MONTH & NEW YEAR
