Honor and majesty are before Him; Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary. Psalm 96:6

Those who seek the Lord sometimes lose a lot, because they do not observe what is before them whenever they pray or determine some blessing in the Name of Jesus. Glory and majesty are never lacking before God, but why did the psalmist make such a statement? Originally, it was made by King David in 1 Chronicles 16:27; then placed in Psalm 96, whose author is unknown. This is the reason why: we must be firm in our prayers.

If we pray with confidence that such virtues are before He who has all the power in Heaven and on Earth, will the solution given be weak, impotent or without the necessary power? Of course not. The Lord and all that belongs to Him are not lazy, but working. When ordaining your blessing, know that it will be carried out by the Creator’s ability.

Take heart in the faith even before your process of deliverance initiates, knowing that the Savior will fulfill all that He promised in the Bible. His glory and majesty lead you to believe that He regards your prayer with the utmost attention. Thus, you receive the answer of each petition. Now, take your place in Christ and pray convinced that you will be answered.

David understood that this was the case when he cried out to God before entering the battles for his people. Thus, he always won. One of his praises says: Bless the Lord, O my soul! LORD, my God, you are very great; you are clothed with honor and majesty (Psalm 104:1). The Most High is exceedingly magnificent in power and skills.

Who is God? He is more than we can define. In everything, He is greater than the human mind can conceive and is by your side, telling you: “Do not fear, because I am your God. I strengthen you, I help and uphold you with my righteous right hand”. It is time for you to change for the better, ordaining what the Word reveals to you. Be a winner!

Upon entering the Lord’s sanctuary, His beauty and strength will be available to give you victory. There, you must give Him praise for what He is and has. However, that is often overlooked. Then, you cry and complain, saying you haven’t been answered. How do you know that you haven’t been answered, if everything you ask for God grants you? Wake up!

Glory and majesty surround the Lord; strength and beauty fill His sanctuary. Act wisely when you go into the Most Holy Place, for it is the place of one who loves the heavenly Father and calls Him the true God. Be the person He made you to be – someone with the authority to bind and loose (Matthew 16:19).

In Christ, with love,
