Clothed in MajestyTerry Dashner………………………Faith Fellowship Church of Broken Arrow, OK 74013
Have you contemplated
beauty of God’s majesty lately? Have you heard Him speak lately?
Did you know that God has several blankets with which He cloaks Himself? His coverings are expansive, vast, and immeasurable. His majesty is beautiful and certainly beyond mortal words of explanation. So, it’s best to just stand in awe while we consider Him.
The Lord God covers Himself in three majestic hues—black, gray, and blue. He chooses His wardrobe of blue by day. He desires black by night, and woolen gray during stormy days. He is majestic in His appearance with His wardrobe of many colors.
In Psalms 93:1 it says, “The lord reigns, He is clothed with majesty; The Lord has clothed and girded Himself with strength; Indeed, world is firmly established, it will not be moved.” (NASB)
In Psalms 97:2 it says, “Clouds and thick darkness surround Him; Righteousness and justice are foundation of His throne.” (NASB)
Why do we consider His majestic covering? His majestic covering accentuates His Glory. To be heard, a voice must be amplified. To make her statement in art, an artist must use bold strokes of her brush. To be seen in midst of gross darkness, light must be greater still. God’s majesty intensifies His glory. Intensity defines our God!
His name in Old Testament is Elohim. Consider this. The verb in name construction is singular, but noun is plural. How can that be? Our God is one God. He stands alone, and no other god stands above Him; however, He is many—not many in number. He is “many.” He is much in intensity. His majesty is like sound of many voices upon skip of waters. Can you hear this? He is abounding, excessive, exceedingly, and more than enough in His manifested majesty.
