Before God's Throne

When you recite the "Lord's Prayer," and you say, "Thy Kingdom come," you have just asked the Messiah to come into your world; A world meaning your heart, marriage, your fears, and doubts.  This is a bold request for God to occupy every corner of your life.  Who are you to ask such a thing?  You are a child of the King, so go boldly.

Lift up your eyes to the maker of mountains you can't climb.  And there in the midst of it all, He will hear your voice speak, while you rest in His holiness.  Then you will see those mountains are not that high.

The eyes of the Lord are everywhere, keeping watch on you.  Your prayers please Him, and He loves you when you pursue righteousness.  When you approach His throne, you become a crown of splendor in his hand, and your God rejoices over you.  Pretty awesome you might say.  He makes something beautiful, beautiful out of your presence.

Just think, you are in the presence of Jesus, who has gone into heaven and is at God's right hand--with angels, authorities and powers in submission to Him.

Clothe yourself with humility which comes before honor because;

"God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble".

Cast your anxiety on Him because He cares for you.  Stand firm in the faith, and the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will make you strong and bold.

Welcome to the glory of your king, The God of creation is ready to meet with you.  As you reach out to Jesus with trembling hands, rejoice and praise His holy name.  It is because of His great name, you can boldly take your place:

"Before God's Throne"

I thank You Jesus for the priceless gift you gave me.  In this life, to the cross I will cling, and in Your arms seek rest.  For You are my Savior and because of Your outrageous love for me, saved me from an eternity in hell.  Worthy is the Lamb.

"Let us, then, feel very sure that we can come before God's throne where there is grace".  
                                                                   (Hebrews 4:16)
