Passion for Praise: 'With Their Faces to the Ground'

Thursday, February 9, 1961

And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living beings. And they fell before the throne with their faces to the ground and worshiped God. And they sang, "Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and strength belong to our God forever and ever! Amen."
— Revelation 7:11-12
