Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!


1. Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!

Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee.

Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty,
God in three persons, blessed Trinity!

2. Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore thee,
casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;
cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee,
which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.

3. Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide thee,
though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see,
only thou art holy; there is none beside thee,
perfect in power, in love and purity.

4. Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty!
All thy works shall praise thy name, in earth and sky and sea.
Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty,
God in three persons, blessed Trinity. Amen

Does God really hold us accountable for all our actions?

Image
  Accountability is giving an account of yourself to someone—where you’ve been, what you’ve been doing, who you’ve been with, how you will perform a certain task, or what your motives are. The one who is holding you accountable has the freedom, perhaps the right, to ask for a report. But don’t most of us resent it when we are fully accountable? We may feel that it restricts us and forces us to expose dark corners of our lives we’d prefer to keep hidden. Although genuine accountability may be uncomfortable, it’s necessary, for it keeps us honest, moral, and on the right path. It urges us to do what we should do, even if we prefer not to. If we answer to no one, aren’t we free to go where our desires lead rather than where God leads—a dangerous game?  Bosses may or may not do a good job of holding their employees accountable. Parents may or may not always do such a good job of holding their children accountable. How well do you hold yourself accountable to someone else? When we ...

What is the greatest thing that can be accomplished?

Image
To accomplish something is to complete a task, whether it is washing the dishes or winning the Super Bowl. The Bible mentions many physical accomplishments, but it also highlights spiritual accomplishments, which we so often overlook—an active prayer life, Christian maturity, telling a neighbor about your faith, a moral victory over temptation, a tender word of encouragement to a child. These kinds of accomplishments need to take priority in our lives. What is my greatest accomplishment? How do I achieve it? Ecclesiastes 12:13 Here now is my final conclusion: Fear God and obey his commands, for this is everyone’s duty. Jeremiah 9:23-24 This is what the LORD says: "Don't let the wise boast in their wisdom, or the powerful boast in their power, or the rich boast in their riches. [24] But those who wish to boast should boast in this alone: that they truly know me and understand that I am the LORD who demonstrates unfailing love and who brings justice and righteousness to the eart...

Overcoming False Accusations

Image
  We live in a world where our sinful nature urges us to first look out for ourselves. Rather than take responsibility for our own actions and faults, our first instinct is to accuse someone or something else – anything to take the focus off ourselves and avoid the consequences of our mistakes.  But accusations are often justified as well – a crime is committed, a costly mistake is made, a sin was committed that threatens a relationship. In these cases, it is necessary to accuse the one who did wrong so that justice can be served and restitution made. Before we accuse, we must be very careful to have all the facts, and to make an accusation in a way that focuses on righting the wrong, not on destroying the accused. Accusations have the power to destroy another person, so we must be extremely careful before we point our finger. Ultimately, God knows all motives and he will bring justice to the guilty in his time. Why are accusations made against me? Psalm 35:11 Malicious witnes...

How do we break the chains of addiction?

Image
  Who in his right mind would volunteer to become a slave, chained to a life of bondage? Yet that’s just what addiction is: self-imposed slavery, selling oneself into bondage to habit or a substance. While we typically think of addiction as a problem related to drugs or alcohol, there are other addictions that can also be destructive. We may become addicted to work, addicted to gambling, or addicted to pornography. We all have our addictions, whether they are “minor” bad habits or dangerous dependencies. One thing we are all dangerously addicted to is sin. When it comes to rejecting God’s way of living and doing what seems best to us—well, we are hooked. So how do we break the chains of our sin addiction? Ironically, it is by submitting to the control of God and his Holy Spirit. We are still controlled, but his control is always for our benefit and health, not our destruction. God’s transforming power is the only thing that can ultimately heal us from all addictions. Can addiction ...

What Excludes us from God's Presence?

Image
What should we admit? Psalm 51:3-5 For I recognize my rebellion; it haunts me day and night . . . I sinned; I have done what is evil in your sight . . . For I was born a sinner— yes, from the moment my mother conceived me. Leviticus 5:5 " When you become aware of your guilt in any of these ways, you must confess your sin. When you become aware of your guilt in any of these ways, you must confess your sin. We should admit all of our sins to the Lord. Romans 10:9 If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 14:11 For the Scriptures say, “As surely as I live,” says the Lord, “every knee will bend to me, and every tongue will declare allegiance to God.” Philippians 2:11 Every tongue [will] declare that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 1 John 2:23 Anyone who denies the Son doesn’t have the Father, either. But anyone who acknowledges the Son has the Father also. We must admit that Jes...
