Scripture:
Revelation 4:11 – “You are worthy, O Lord our God, to receive glory and honor and power. For you created all things, and they exist because you created what you pleased.”
Observation:
John describes for us what worship is like in heaven. In response to the four beings ceaselessly praising God Almighty, the twenty four elders fall down before the throne of God to worship and lay their crowns there. The elders worship by saying God is worthy to receive honor, glory and power. God is deserving of our praise as He created all things purposefully. This confirms that from creation forward, God is in sovereign control of the world.
Application:
We should worship God as the beings and elders do in heaven! Our worship should be continual and in response to His authority over our lives not as a result of our situation. I need to fall down and praise God for who He is and what He done daily! God created us to be in a relationship with Him and through our faith in the sacrificial death and resurrection of Jesus we will spend eternity in heaven. God is deserving of all of our honor, glory and praise as he is Almighty. God created all the heavens and earth along with each of us to worship Him.
Prayer:
Father, Thank you creating us and sending Jesus so we can worship you. Let me praise you never ending as in heaven because you are worthy of all our honor and praise.
