Oh Lord, my God, how majestic You are! When I lift my eyes to behold You, I see a King whose glory is uncontainable, whose beauty is beyond description, and whose power shakes the very foundations of the earth. You sit enthroned above the heavens, clothed in splendor and majesty, wrapped in light as with a garment (Psalm 104:1-2).
Your throne, O God, is a throne of fire. Flames of holiness dance around You, radiating light that pierces the darkest places. The ground beneath Your feet glows like molten glass, alive with the power of Your presence. Around You is a sea of crystal, shimmering with colors no human eye can fully grasp (Revelation 4:3, 6). Lightning flashes from Your throne, and thunder declares Your voice, mighty and unshakable (Revelation 4:5).
You are the God of the whirlwind, who rides on the wings of the wind (Psalm 18:10). The skies themselves are Your canopy, stretched out by Your hand, and the stars bow before You, each one burning with the light of Your command. With a word, You set galaxies into motion, and with the same breath, You know the number of hairs on my head (Luke 12:7). What kind of God is this, who holds the universe in His hands and still calls me by name?
Your majesty, Lord, is fierce, yet tender. You are the Lion of Judah, roaring with power, defending Your people with a love that cannot be contained. Yet You are also the Lamb who was slain, stepping into my brokenness to redeem me with the blood of Your sacrifice (Revelation 5:5-6). Your love is a burning fire—consuming, purifying, relentless.
The Weight of Your Glory
I see, in my spirit, the vision You gave Ezekiel. Your glory appeared like a storm cloud, alive with fire, bursting with light that flashed like lightning. Creatures surrounded You, each one radiant with life and covered with eyes, reflecting Your infinite wisdom and power. And above them, there You were, seated on a throne of sapphire, blazing with fire, and crowned with a rainbow of emerald light—a symbol of Your eternal covenant with Your people (Ezekiel 1:26-28).
And like Ezekiel, I am undone before You, Lord. How can I stand in the presence of such majesty? How can my lips, so unclean, even speak of Your glory? Yet You do not cast me away. Instead, You invite me closer, to gaze upon You, to know You, to be transformed by You.
John saw it too—Your throne room, surrounded by worshippers from every tribe, tongue, and nation, crying out day and night, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come!” (Revelation 4:8). Their voices rise like thunder, and the elders fall to their knees, casting their crowns at Your feet. The sheer weight of Your presence fills the heavens, and all of creation bows before You.
Majestic Savior and King
Yet Your glory is not confined to the heavens. You revealed Your majesty on earth through Jesus Christ, the radiance of Your glory and the exact imprint of Your nature (Hebrews 1:3). In Him, Your infinite greatness took on human form. The One who commands the stars knelt to wash feet. The One whose voice shakes the mountains chose to bear the mockery of men. You, the King of Glory, hung on a cross so that I might be crowned with life eternal.
What love is this, O God? What majesty is this, that stoops so low to lift me so high? Your ways are higher than my ways, and Your thoughts are higher than my thoughts (Isaiah 55:8-9). I can only marvel, I can only fall to my knees and worship You.
A Heart Transformed by Your Glory
Lord, let the vision of Your majesty burn within my heart. Let me see You as You are: the God who is both fierce and tender, holy and merciful, powerful and personal. As I gaze upon Your glory, transform me. Burn away my fears, my doubts, my sins. Fill me with the fire of Your love, so that I might reflect Your light to a world that desperately needs to see You.
Let Your glory become my cry and my song. Let me declare with every breath: “Yours, O Lord, is the greatness, the power, the glory, the victory, and the majesty; for all that is in heaven and in earth is Yours. Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and You are exalted as head over all” (1 Chronicles 29:11).
You are the King of Glory, the Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle (Psalm 24:8). You are the God who was, who is, and who is to come. You are the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end.
Today, I bow before You, not just with my knees, but with my heart. I declare that You are God, and there is no other. Let Your glory fill the earth as the waters cover the sea. Let Your glory fill my life, that I might call it forth in others, that I might proclaim Your name to all creation.
Be exalted, O King of Glory. Be magnified in my life. Be glorified forever and ever. Amen.
