22.01.2022 Perspectives from Above Anne Cetas I will not yield my glory to another. Isaiah 48:11... Isaiah 48:511, 17 Ezra 12; John 19:2342 When Peter Welch was a young boy in the 1970s, using a metal detector was only a hobby. But since 1990, he’s been leading people from around the world on metal-detecting excursions. They’ve made thousands of discoveriesswords, ancient jewelry, coins. Using Google Earth, a computer program based on satellite imagery, they look for patterns in the landscape on farmland in the United Kingdom. It shows them where roads, buildings, and other structures may have been centuries ago. Peter says, To have a perspective from above opens a whole new world. God’s people in Isaiah’s day needed a perspective from above. They prided themselves on being His people yet were disobedient and refused to give up their idols. God had another perspective. Despite their rebellion, He would rescue them from captivity to Babylon. Why? For my own sake, . . . I will not yield my glory to another (Isaiah 48:11). God’s perspective from above is that life is for His glory and purposenot ours. Our attention is to be given to Him and His plans and to pointing others to praise Him too. Having God’s glory as our own life’s perspective opens a whole new world. Only He knows what we will discover about Him and what He has for us. God will teach us what is good for us and lead us along the paths we should follow (v. 17). What can you praise God for today? How might you go about having God increase in your life and you decrease? God, I want my life to be about You and not myself. Teach me and change me.

18.01.2022 Truly Humble, Truly Great Winn Collier [Christ Jesus] made himself nothing. Philippians 2:7 Philippians 2:111... 2 Chronicles 3031; John 18:118 As the American Revolution concluded with England’s improbable surrender, many politicians and military leaders maneuvered to make General George Washington a new monarch. The world watched, wondering if Washington would stick to his ideals of freedom and liberty when absolute power was within his grasp. England’s King George III saw another reality, however. He was convinced that if Washington resisted the power pull and returned to his Virginia farm, he would be the greatest man in the world. The king knew that the greatness evidenced in resisting the allure to power is a sign of true nobility and significance. Paul knew this same truth and encouraged us to follow Christ’s humble way. Even though Jesus was in very nature God, he did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage (Philippians 2:6). Instead, He surrendered His power, became a servant and humbled himself by becoming obedient to death (vv. 78). The One who held all power surrendered every bit of it for the sake of love. And yet, in the ultimate reversal, God exalted Christ from a criminal’s cross to the highest place (v. 9). Jesus, who could demand our praise or force us to be obedient, laid down His power in a breathtaking act that won our worship and devotion. Through absolute humility, Jesus demonstrated true greatness, turning the world upside down. How does the depth of Jesus’ humility surprise you? How does His humility force you to reconsider your definition of greatness? Thank You, Jesus, that in Your most destitute and (seemingly) disgraceful moment, You demonstrated Your true power and greatne

02.01.2022 Our Reason for Joy Xochitl Dixon Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the people of Zion be glad in their King. Psalm 149:2 Psalm 149:15... 2 Chronicles 3233; John 18:1940 When the school year began a few years ago, fourteen-year-old C.J. would hop off the bus every afternoon and dance down his driveway. His mom recorded and shared videos of C.J.’s after-school boogie time. He danced because he enjoyed life and making people happy with every move. One day, two garbage collectors took time out of their busy work schedule to stomp, spin, and sway with the young boy who inspires others to dance with him. This trio demonstrates the power of sincere and infectious joy. The writer of Psalm 149 describes the original source of enduring and unconditional joyGod. The psalmist encourages God’s people to join together when we can to sing to the Lord a new song (v. 1). He invites Israel to rejoice in their Maker and be glad in their King (v. 2). He calls us to worship Him with dancing and music (vv. 13). Why? Because the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with victory (v. 4). Our adoring Father created us and sustains the universe. He delights in us just because we’re His beloved children. He designed us, knows us, and invites us into a personal relationship with Him. What an honor! Our loving and living God is our reason for everlasting joy. We can rejoice in the gift of His constant presence and be grateful for every day our Maker has given us. Why does knowing God delights in us encourage joy in all circumstances? How can you express your joy in the Lord throughout the day? Thanks for loving us, delighting in us, and knowing us, God.
