TOPIC: BOWING TO GOD’S MAJESTY
4:34. And at the end of the time I, Nebuchadnezzar, lifted my eyes to heaven, and my understanding returned to me; and I blessed the Most High and praised and honored Him who lives forever: For His dominion [is] an everlasting dominion, And His kingdom [is] from generation to generation.
4:35. All the inhabitants of the earth [are] reputed as nothing; He does according to His will in the army of heaven And [among] the inhabitants of the earth. No one can restrain His hand Or say to Him, “What have You done?”
4:36. At the same time my reason returned to me, and for the glory of my kingdom, my honor and splendor returned to me. My counselors and nobles resorted to me, I was restored to my kingdom, and excellent majesty was added to me.
4:37. Now I, Nebuchadnezzar, praise and extol and honor the King of heaven, all of whose works [are] truth, and His ways justice. And those who walk in pride He is able to put down.
THE MESSAGE:
Nobody taught Nebuchadnezzar to praise God. He experienced what he could not explain and started to sing praises of God. God decided to teach him a litle lesson and to demonstrate His power again to Nebuchadnezzar by turning him to feed on grass like oxen. He immediately turned to a chorister to praise the greatness of God. He realised that God “…does according to His will in the army of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth. No one can restrain His hand or say to Him, ‘What have you done?’” (verse 35). Imagine the benevolence of God in the whole matter; He preserved the kingdom for Nebuchadnezzar for the seven years he was off the throne. Any of his ambitious officials could have seized power or slain the king and taken over. Many find it very difficult to recognise and honour God until they find themselves in horrible experiences, like Nebuchadnezzar.
Right now, can you pause and recall the goodness of the Lord to you and your family from your time of birth till date? Have you found time to praise God for any terrible condition you scaled through? You don’t need to wait until you go through a negative experience before you realise it is time to give God quality praise. Start today to praise God for all the daily benefits He loads us with.
PRAYER/SONG: “Who is like unto Thee, O Lord?(2x), Among the gods, who is like Thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders, Halleluiah!”
