Eternal King & Maker of All Things
Idolatry and hypocrisy have permeated every fiber of Judah’s
national life. People, prophets and
priests alike practice worthless
worship in haughty indifference.
But through Jeremiah, God delivers
a ringing indictment. Their nation
with all its outward splendour –
will be reduced to a heap of ruins
because of the people’s arrogance
and idolatry. At the thought of Judah’s imminent divine surgery,
Jeremiah weeps unashamedly
for his hardhearted countrymen.
Praise Eternal King & Maker of all:
You are great; and Your name
is great in might, Who would
not fear You, O King… For this is
Your rightful due (Jer 10:6-7).
But the Lord is the true God;
He is the living God and
the everlasting King (v10).
He has made the earth by His
power, He establish the world
by His wisdom… For He is
the Maker of all things (v12-16).
Lord, You are great and greatly
to be praised. Great is Your power.
You have stirred our hearts so that
we take pleasure in praising You.
You have created us and our hearts are restless until they rest in You.
Lord, we affirm Your power over
the circumstances of our life. And since You are powerful & wise, we’ll
give You all praise and glory. Amen
Glory be to You O God the Father,
the Maker of the whole world.
Glory to You O God the Son,
the Redeemer of humankind.
Glory to You O God the Holy Spirit,
the sanctifier of Your people.
I am giving thee offering
with my whole thought.
I am giving thee praise
with my whole tongue.
I am giving thee love
with my whole devotion.
I am giving thee worship
with my whole life. Amen.
Lord, I contemplate Your great
power in creating the universe.
I know that You have power over
all the natural forces that U created.
I know that I could not take a breath
or be sustained upon this earth
except by Your sustaining grace.
So I join the psalmist to praise You.
Praise You for Your mighty deeds.
Praise You for excellent greatness.
Let every day of my life praise You.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
