In what ways can we acknowledge God's majesty as seen in Ezekiel 10:20? Focus Verse: Ezekiel 10:20 “These were the living creatures I had seen beneath the God of Israel by the River Kebar, and I realized that they were cherubim.” What the Verse Reveals about God’s Majesty • Tangible glory—real, living cherubim carry His throne (cf. Ezekiel 1:26–28). • Absolute sovereignty—He reigns above all creation (Psalm 97:9). • Perfect holiness—heavenly beings surround Him in ceaseless adoration (Isaiah 6:1–3). • Unchanging faithfulness—Ezekiel sees the same cherubim multiple times, underscoring God’s consistent nature (Malachi 3:6). Ways to Acknowledge His Majesty • Worship with holy awe – Offer reverent praise, mindful that the same God Ezekiel saw receives our worship today (Hebrews 12:28–29). • Submit to His sovereign rule – Yield daily decisions to His revealed will (Proverbs 3:5–6). • Proclaim His glory publicly – Speak of His greatness to family, friends, and congregation (Psalm 96:3). • Guard the sacred – Treat Scripture, corporate worship, and the ordinances with solemn respect (1 Corinthians 11:27–29). • Pursue personal holiness – Allow the vision of cherubim—sinless beings—around His throne to motivate separation from sin (1 Peter 1:15–16). • Anticipate future glory – Live in hope, knowing we will one day see the King in His splendor (Revelation 22:3–4). Practical Daily Steps • Begin each morning reading a psalm of praise, voicing it aloud. • Schedule brief “awe pauses” during the day—moments to recall God seated above the cherubim. • Memorize Ezekiel 10:20 and Psalm 99:1 to keep His throne in view. • Integrate worship music that exalts God’s holiness into household routines. • When making plans, consciously ask, “How does this decision honor the King who reigns above the cherubim?” Closing Encouragement The same majestic Lord Ezekiel witnessed still rules unchallenged today. Recognizing His glory fuels wholehearted worship, steadfast obedience, and unshakeable hope until we behold Him face-to-face. |
