Today's Verse: Deuteronomy 10:21

Thursday, October 21, 2004

He is your praise; he is your God, who performed for you those great and awesome wonders you saw with your own eyes.
— Deuteronomy 10:21

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

He is our praise! The God who parted the Red Sea and supplied manna to the Israelites in the wilderness is also the God who did the most amazing miracles in us — he has turned our selfish hearts to do his will and turned our lives to do his eternal work in the world. Then, after doing those things in us, he has gifted us and empowered us to do those things he has placed in our hearts. He is our praise, the One we worship and the One who makes us worthy worshipers!

My Prayer...

You are worthy, Abba Father, of all glory, honor, and praise. You have done great and mighty works through the history of your people, Israel — most of who were everyday people. Thank you for using me to do your work in my world as well. I praise you, dear Father, for using everyday folks to do your eternal work. In the name of Jesus, my brother and King, I pray. Amen.
