Acknowledging His Greatness
(Adoration)

Lord, I give thanks for Your greatness, Your goodness, and Your love; and I now draw near to enjoy Your presence.

Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand,
Or marked off the heavens with the breadth of his hand?
Who has calculated the dust of the earth in a measure,
Or weighed the mountains in the balance
And the hills in scales? (Isaiah 40:12)

You are the Lord, and there is no other;
Apart from You there is no God. (Isaiah 45:5–6)

Take a moment to consider God’s awesome majesty, and thank Him that He loves you and wants an intimate relationship with you.

I will not slander other believers. . . . There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the One who is able to save and to destroy. Who am I to judge my neighbor? (James 4:11–12)

The one who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him. But the one who hates his brother is in the darkness and walks in the darkness and does not know where he is going because the darkness has blinded his eyes. (1 John 2:10–11)

Lord, I praise You for the living power of Your Word and for the abundance of Your grace. I thank You for creating and loving me. May I not slander others, but love them.
