Worshiping the Holy One
Gary WilkersonJanuary 3, 2022
Do you ever see people acting holy? They’re the ones who usually tell you, “I’m fasting today.” They’re also usually the ones that make you feel guilty.
The Jewish Rabbis that you see down by the Wailing Wall, they look very holy. I mean, they kind of dress holy, if there’s such a thing. I was in Israel once down at the Wailing Wall, and a holy man walked up to me. He was very kind, and he even showed me the synagogue, then at the end, he said that he would pray for me and my family and that he would be very willing to accept my donation for his seven children.
I’m not trying to be offensive at all, but that experience proves that we’re not made holy by what we wear. We can perhaps be unholy by what we wear, but there’s not a holy outfit except one, and God wears it. It’s his perfect purity. It’s illuminous, full of glory. It’s also not just something that he puts on in the morning. If he could borrow my suit, I think it would start glowing as well, not because of the garment itself but because of the holiness in God.
When John, who wrote about God being love, had a vision of heaven, he also got a revelation about God’s nature. He observed angelic beings singing, “Holy, holy, holy, is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come!” (Revelation 4:8, ESV).

God isn’t holy sometimes. He doesn’t ever have to repent. He doesn’t make a single mistake. He doesn’t put his head down and say, “For seven billion years now, I’ve lived a perfect life until Gary Wilkerson made me mad.” He needs no repentance. He doesn’t have to have his son come to him and say, “Father, get your act together” because he is holy always, totally, fully.
That truth should cause us to fall down like the 24 elders John also saw in his vision and cry out, “Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they existed and were created” (Revelation 4:11). Hallelujah!
