September 29, 2025 – When Majesty Walks In
Sermon: 1973 Soon Coming of Our Lord, Part 1
Pray Over This
“I, John, both your brother and companion in the tribulation and kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was on the island that is called Patmos for the word of God and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s Day, and I heard behind me a loud voice, as of a trumpet, saying, ‘I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,’ and, ‘What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.’”
Ponder This
Sometimes we talk too casually about our Savior. Let’s suppose it’s Sunday morning. People are coming into the sanctuary. The ushers are at the door, greeting people and giving them a smile and a handshake. The call to worship is given and the pastor stands in the pulpit to intone the morning prayer. And suppose he prays something like this: “Lord Jesus, we’ve come today to give You glory, honor, and majesty. Lord Jesus, we pray that You’ll show up here today.” This type of prayer is not uncommon.
Suppose then, the back door opened, and down that aisle comes the same One John saw on Patmos. His hair is white and glistening, whiter than snow. His face shines with a shekinah glory, brighter than the sun. His feet glow as if in a furnace. His voice is deafening. He’s wearing regal robes, and He walks down the aisle.
What would you do? You’d fall on your face before Him, would you not? That’s what John did. John said: “When I saw Him, I fell on my face like a dead man.” May God forgive our irreverence! We do not take these matters seriously; we forget the majesty of God so quickly that we would be shocked if we truly beheld Him.
- What are some things that remind you of God’s glory? What makes it easy to forget it?
- What would change if you remembered God’s glory all the time?
Practice This
Spend time pondering God’s glory and majesty. Praise Him for who He is.
