What actions can we take to acknowledge God's exaltation in our daily lives? Setting Our Eyes on His Supremacy “For You, O LORD, are Most High over all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods.” (Psalm 97:9) • This verse is not poetic exaggeration; it states literal reality—God reigns unrivaled. • Every response that follows begins with fixing our hearts on this truth. Lift Him Up in Worship • Start and end each day by declaring aloud His greatness (Psalm 145:1-3). • Join congregational worship consistently—Hebrews 10:24-25 ties gathering with honoring His supremacy. • Sing songs that exalt His attributes rather than focus mainly on our feelings. Surrender Daily Choices • Ask, “Will this decision display that Christ is Lord?” (Colossians 3:17). • Submit plans to Him in prayer before acting (Proverbs 3:5-6). • Choose obedience even when culture pulls opposite (Acts 5:29). Speak His Glory to Others • Share how God has shown Himself “far above all gods” in your life—simple testimonies magnify Him (Psalm 96:3). • Use everyday conversations to attribute blessings to His hand (James 1:17). • Encourage fellow believers with reminders of His exalted reign (1 Thessalonians 5:11). Treasure His Word • Read Scripture daily, receiving it as infallible truth (2 Timothy 3:16). • Memorize verses that proclaim His greatness—try Psalm 57:5 or Isaiah 45:5-6. • Meditate on passages until they shape thought patterns (Joshua 1:8). Live with Joyful Holiness • Purity and integrity spotlight His exalted character (1 Peter 1:15-16). • Serve others selflessly; greatness expressed through humility mirrors Philippians 2:9-11. • Celebrate His victories in your life with gratitude instead of self-credit (Psalm 115:1). Rest Confidently in His Reign • When anxious, recall that the “Most High” rules today’s details (Psalm 97:9; Matthew 6:31-33). • Trust His sovereign timing; His throne is secure, so you can sleep in peace (Psalm 4:8). • Face opposition knowing every “god” or power is already beneath His feet (Ephesians 1:20-22). By weaving these practices into ordinary moments, we acknowledge—continually and visibly—that the LORD is indeed “Most High over all the earth.” |
