Psalm 29
We do not make God anything. He is what He
is, that's His Name: YHWH. So when we ascribe value and honor to Him, we do not
make Him exalted or praiseworthy by our words; He already is those things,
we're just agreeing. Our voices merely enter the chorus of Heaven already chanting, "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty!"
God's voice, however, is powerful and
creative. Where it is heard, it creates, and it makes. By merely His speaking, forests
are felled and kingdoms are conquered. By His voice life is illuminated. So
great is His might, in fact, He can rule the world from a seated position.
Agree with reality by ascribing value to
God. Use your words to give glory to His Word -- not because His Word needs your
support, but because you are supported entirely by His Word! -- not because
He relies on your testimony, but because you rely completely on His.
