Wow!

Wow God!

When was the last time I started off our time together with a “Wow”? Thank You Lord. Right now I ask that You would make me acutely aware of every single wow moment of this day.

It started very simply with the full-blown singing of ♫Our God Reigns♫ followed by my looking up the lyrics. Seeing two books of scripture listed under the title, I found my attention taken from the song directly into Your Word.

Father, I am amazed. Wowed, if You will. Lord, how easy it is for me to freely belt out the chorus here. Its truth filling my soul. But then I looked deeper into the lyrics. These are not words taken from the heart and mind of a songwriter. No. They are found right here in Your Word. Wow God. Wow!

Isaiah (52:7; 53) foretold Your coming. Your purpose. Your Passion. This always amazes me. Such detail as to what was to come. It’s one thing to have Dr. Luke (24:5-6, 39) give the historical account after the fact, but Isaiah speaking of it beforehand? Amazing!

♫How lovely on the mountains Are the feet of him Who bring good news, good news Announcing peace, Proclaiming news of happiness. Our God reigns, Our God reigns…♫

Wow Lord! Straight from Your Word into our hearts and our souls. Wow God! Let us use Your Truth well. Exactly as You would have us. Thank You. I love You. Amen.
