The heavens declare His glory

Psalm 19:1 – The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

Finally, I have been able to post a slide show of pictures that show forth the heavenlies and the handiwork of our Creator in the skies.  Most of these came from Facebook pictures that were posted by various friends throughout the United States. 

The entire Psalm 19 reflects on the righteousness and faithfulness of our God who created and still creates His glory in the earth.  He created glory when he established the earth in Genesis 1 and when He created man in Genesis 2.  He is still creating His glory in the lives of believers who are allowing His transformation to take place in their lives.  II Corinthians 3: 18 says, “ And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed in his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.”

As we enter into a new year full of unknowns, the one thing we can be sure of is that God, the creator of the universe and the creator of our lives, is bringing forth a people who reflect who He is.  The glory of the Lord is filling the earth even as the waters cover the seas and that is happening through those who have totally surrendered to His handiwork in their lives by the power of Holy Spirit.  It is time for us as believers to live as though our lives are not our own, they have been bought with a price and they have been bought by the blood of Jesus Christ so that His glory is released into the darkness that is invading the earth.  This is a time to develop the glory of God in our own lives so that His light is released through us into the darkness.  

Making resolutions for a new year are generally futile, but making quality decisions to follow wholly after Christ and what He is doing in the earth will bear fruit for many generations.  What decision do you make in this critical hour in history concerning the Christ to whom you belong?  Will you be an example of His righteousness and faithfulness in the earth or will continue to live life as though it is yours?
