Daily Devotional: Sitting in the Presence of God

King David loved to play music for the Lord. He took great delight in going to worship God and even just sitting in God's presence. Have you ever experienced sitting in God's presence?

Psalm 122:1

“I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.”

What a joy to sit in the presence of God! There is no one like the Lord! No one is comparable to His goodness, His mercy, His love, His righteousness, and His glory. Everyone pales in comparison to His majesty. What a joy to simply be in the same room as Him.

How magnificent is the Lord? What words can describe His greatness? Nothing in all of creation is adequate. All the earth does not even begin to display His glory. The heavens are His footstool. He is so magnificent that the universe itself cannot contain Him.

O, let us delight in Him. Let us worship Him for all that He is! Let us rejoice in the magnitude of His glory. Let us celebrate that He alone is God, that He alone has all power, wisdom, and majesty.

Let us rejoice in the One who created us. Let us love Him who loves us so much that He sent His Son to die for us. Let us praise Him for the breath of life He gives us each day. Let us honor Him by simply sitting in awe at His presence. Let us serve Him by seeking His presence in our lives.
