As we conclude our journey through this worshipful hymn ask the Holy Spirit to open your eyes to see Jesus clearly. Marvel at the majesty of our Savior. Let’s think about this.

Every Knee Will Bow

Jesus is the the fairest of all. By far. He has no equal. Not even anyone in His league.

Accordingly, He alone is worthy of all worship. How are you acknowledging Him for who He is? Are you humbling your life before Him every day? Or are you waiting for the day when every knee will bow?

That day is coming. Get ready for it by bowing before Him today. And every day.

Glory and honor praise adoration

To the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 1:25 ESV

Because He has become our Savior, He is worthy of all the praise we could ever bring. Jesus deserves glory and honor, praise and adoration, majesty, dominion, and authority. He has the name that is above every name and one day every knee will bow before Him.

Are you driven to offer praise to Jesus? The glory that is due His name and no other? Do you sing His praise? Do you live for His glory? Do you pray and give to see His kingdom come on earth as it is in heaven? Do you long to stand in His presence and praise Him?

RESONATE!
Take a few moments think about how worthy Jesus is of your worship. There is truly no one like Him. Make this your simple prayer “Spirit, consume my life with a passion to praise Jesus.” 

Every Tongue Will Confess

Now and forevermore be Thine

How about your tongue? Do you use it every day for the glory of Jesus, or for your own glory? He is worthy of your worship now, as much as He will be worthy forevermore.

Now and forevermore be Thine

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Hebrews 13:8 ESV

There will come a time when every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Those who know Him will exalt Him accordingly for all eternity. We will never cease to praise Him because He will never cease to be the same. Get your praise started today if you have not already done so.

Praising Jesus forever sounds great. But remember, forever includes today, right now. Are you waiting to praise Jesus? Though we long to be in His presence praising Him forever, forever starts right now. Do not wait for forever to begin. Start praising Jesus today.

RESONATE!
Take a few moments and think about how you use your tongue. Do you use it to praise Him every day? If you are looking forward to spending eternity doing it, maybe you should start practicing that now. Give Jesus praise by praying a simple prayer like this, “Jesus, help me praise you today and every day.“

Jesus, thank You for being Lord of all and for revealing that to me. I long to be in Your presence eternally, but want to practice my praise every day. Help me Lord. In Jesus name. Amen.

Conscientious Thinking!

Welcome to Thursday Thoughts at Resonant 7, where we reflect on the reality of God and resolve to let it resound in our lives, repeatedly. Let’s think about this.

Beautiful Saviour Lord of all the nations

The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost. 1 Timothy 1:15 ESV

Here we see the quality above all others that makes Jesus the fairest. He is never more beautiful to us than when we see Him as our Savior. But He is not only our Savior, He is the Savior of the world, of people like us, and not like us, though we are all the same in needing a Savior.

Son of God and Son of Man

Who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. Philippians 2:6-7 ESV 

Here are the credentials that allow Him to serve as our Savior. He is fully God, and so has untold power. He is fully man, able to identify with our every weakness. He brings that power and weakness together by becoming our Savior. There is no one more fair.

Glory and honor praise adoration

To the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 1:25 ESV

Because He has become our savior, He is worthy of all the praise we could ever bring. Jesus deserves glory and honor, praise and adoration, majesty, dominion, and authority. He has the name that is above every name and one day every knee will bow before Him.

Now and forevermore be Thine

Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Hebrews 13:8 ESV

There will come a time when every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Those who know Him will exalt Him accordingly for all eternity. We will never cease to praise Him because He will never cease to be the same. Get your praise started today if you have not already done so.

Take a few moments to talk to Jesus about what has come to your mind, or listen to what He is saying to you, then I will read our text once more, with the refrain.

Beautiful Saviour Lord of all the nations
Son of God and Son of Man
Glory and honor praise adoration
Now and forevermore be Thine

Take the mindfulness of God’s presence cultivated in these last few minutes into the next ones and beyond.  Until next time,
Be Resonant.
