Praise—It’s For God’s Glory!
April 2nd, 2019
Ephesians 1:7-14
Recently I found a dead pigeon on my front lawn as I trimmed the shrubbery. Being something of a bird watcher, I picked it up (gloves on!) and noticed one leg was banded. I cleaned it off and wrote down the numbers. From there I went to my computer and looked up the records of Carrier Pigeons. I learned a lot about that bird as I read over the documentation. The racing club that owned the bird was identified, the date it was banded, and the last recorded entry about the bird, which was several years earlier.
As a Christ-follower, you too have been marked with a seal that declares great truths about your identity and your Owner. What’s more, it’s not just a static mark or band, as in the case of the Carrier Pigeon. You have been sealed with the Spirit of God who is actively working in your life. He is creating His character traits in you. He is equipping you to experience the life for which you were created.
Today, you will experience the blessing, presence, and guidance of your Father who is in Heaven. Wouldn’t this be a great time to offer Him praise?
