Majesty

We are coming into the third week of Advent and what a week this is to celebrate. We have been using a series that Rev Reeder introduced to us a month ago and it has been such an eyeopener. Paul’s letters to the churches throughout the Mediterranean served as both encouragement and warning for those new to the faith family but what truly amazes me is how relevant they are today. Consider this, the world is slowly losing touch with the majesty of the Creator. He is being reduced to a “once a week” visit, if that, and the fear of His majesty is getting so watered down that the urgency to seek Him out is falling down most people’s priority list. This past Sunday, we looked at the Ministry of Christmas and really drilled down to the foundation of faith, that being, we are more than observers of the majesty of Christ but rather are called to be ministers of the Word. Many will ask “what do we say?” Consider seeking it out in His Word!

When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen. Eph 2:14-21

His majesty has overcome the world and His Word is the perfect place to start sharing from. Don’t water it down because He who created the universe has empowered the faithful to speak through the power of the Holy Spirit. One can only wonder if Jack Hayford had this passage in mind when he wrote “Majesty”.

Majesty, worship His Majesty.
Unto Jesus be all glory, honour and praise!
Majesty, Kingdom Authority,
Flow from His throne, unto His own
His anthem raise!

This week we celebrate the Majesty of Christmas, week three of Advent, with Rev Bob Hillock. We invite you to join us this Sunday either in person or watch us online at 10:30 AM.
