October 2nd -- 1 Chronicles 16
GIVE UNTO THE LORD THE GLORY
TO divest ourselves of all pride of achievement and to humble ourselves before the Father is a prerequisite to worshipping Him for this ought to be our first reason for praying to Him: "Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name: bring an offering and come before him: worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness."The scientists who unravel some of the secrets of the molecule and the genes; the astronomer who peers out into frighteningly vast space; and the astronauts who photograph the beauties of nature's colours on earth, all proclaim the wondrous and mighty works of God. They unfold for us a multitude of reasons for our humble worship of the Father and the Psalms must often put into words for us what we feel about His Majesty.
