"Moses said, "This is what the LORD orders you to do, that the glory of the LORD may appear to you. Approach the altar," Moses then told Aaron, "and make your purification offering and your burnt offering in atonement for yourself and for your household; then make the offering of the people in atonement for them, as the LORD has commanded."" Leviticus 9:6-7
Approach the altar, there is purpose in our worship, notice we are to bring our offerings and sacrifices to God. It is not vain worship but a sacred tradition that continues till this day. Can you imagine what the people saw and what they felt? His word tells us:"Fire came forth from the LORD's presence and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar. Seeing this, all the people shouted with joy and fell prostrate." Leviticus 9:24. We may not see this happening physically today but He does come forth, our shouts for joy is the great Amen. "And even though our gospel is veiled, it is veiled for those who are perishing," 2 Corinthians 4:3. My prayer today is that you see the glory of God and fall prostrate to His great mystery.
What is God saying to me: Live your faith, you have been given instruction, my words are not empty promises but eternal life.
Father God, you know my shortcomings and my weaknesses, I lean on You for strength, I bring myself to Your altar and fall prostrate at Your feet. I am only a child trying to understand, living in a world that denies you, show us Your glory. Thank You Father for making Your presence known in our birthday celebration, You are always present, May we recognize You. Prayers for the upcoming Men's Day Gathering, You have laid out the plan, we are just to follow Your commands. For the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
Mary, Mother of Love, pray for us.
Will wonders never cease in how You reveal yourself to us!!
