Our Great God

Psalm 57:11

Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
may Your glory cover all the earth.

When David lifted this prayer, he wasn’t sitting on a throne; he was hiding in a cave. Yet even there, he refused to shrink God down to the size of his hard days. David chose a higher view. He looked past the shadows of disappointment and fixed his gaze on a God who cannot be diminished. When our expectations collapse, God does not. His glory still towers above the heavens. His character remains unedited, unaltered, unshaken. 

That is the God we have. If troubles come, God is still great and he is on our side.

I’m Lonnie Davis, and these are thoughts worth thinking.

Today pray:
Father, lift my eyes above my disappointments and restore my confidence in Your unchanging goodness, wisdom, and glory.
