Is God glorious in our eyes?

Psalms 24:8 says, 'Who is the King of glory? The LORD, strong and mighty, the LORD, mighty in battle!'

Is the Lord seen as glorious in your eyes?

If not, may I persuade you to consider what the Lord has done on our behalf?

Jesus, upon Calvary defeated and conquered every enemy, breaking every weapon of the enemy into pieces by His finished work of complete obedience. Not only that but He triumphantly rose from the dead and ascended. CH Spurgeon comments that, "when this happened He completely overturned the hopes of hell leading captivity captive, making a show of our enemies openly, triumphing over them by His cross." How mighty & glorious is our Lord!

You know, every arrow of guilt that Satan might have shot at us is broken, because who can charge us? Our Lord is mighty!

What victories has grace won in our evil hearts? Can you rejoice when Jesus' work in your life has subdued your will, and sin is dethroned? What a mighty Lord!

Brothers, the name of Jesus is great beyond compare! For we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. Through Him, we shall cast down the powers of darkness which are in the world. Spurgeon writes that "by our faith, and zeal, and holiness; we shall win sinners to Jesus, we shall overturn false systems, we shall convert nations, for God is with us, and none shall stand before us." Praise HIS HOLY NAME!

What a Mighty LORD!!! He is GLORIOUS!!!
