Father Knows Best
March 9th, 2014
Revelation 5:1-14
The best time of day for me is in the morning, between 5:00 and 6:30 AM. At this time everything is peaceful, everyone else is sleeping, and I can spend time with the Lord. It is this time of day when I, like the psalmist, can say, “I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify your name forever” (Psalm 86:12).
There is something about singing praise to our Lord who is worthy of our praise. The very last verse in Psalms tells us, “Let everything that has breath praise the LORD” (Psalm 150:6). By praising God with our whole being we are offering Him a sacrifice of praise, a spiritual offering. It is through this sacrifice of praise that we are ushered into the presence of the almighty King. There we sing the praise of the “Lamb who was slain” for our sin. He is worthy of our highest worship, our deepest devotion, and our greatest honor.
Our heavenly Father, whose wisdom surpasses all understanding, knows what is best for our lives. He wants to communicate this to us.
