Read Psalm 96:1-13NKJV

1 Oh, sing to the Lord a new song! Sing to the Lord, all the earth.

Sing to the Lord, bless His name; proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.

Declare His glory among the nations, His wonders among all peoples.

For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.

For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the Lord made the heavens.

Honor and majesty are before Him; strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

Give to the Lord, O families of the peoples, give to the Lord glory and strength.

Give to the Lord the glory due His name; bring an offering, and come into His courts.

Oh, worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! Tremble before Him, all the earth.

10 Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns; the world also is firmly established, it shall not be moved; He shall judge the peoples righteously.”

11 Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and all its fullness;

12 Let the field be joyful, and all that is in it. Then all the trees of the woods will rejoice

13 before the Lord. For He is coming, for He is coming to judge the earth. He shall judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with His truth.

If you want to see the glory of God, just look at nature, especially the sky.

The heavens are like a showroom of His glory.

In Psalm 24:8, David asked who is the King of glory and the answer came back that He is the Lord, strong and mighty.

Psalm 29:3 says He is the God of glory.

Psalm 138:5 says that great is the glory of the Lord.

Up to today, people are still talking about Solomon’s wealth and the splendor and glory of His palace, but Solomon’s glory is like trash before that of God.

As rich as Solomon was, he did not build roads using gold.

In the city of my Daddy, pure, transparent gold is used as paving stones and the gates are made of pearls.

Oh, my God is glorious!

If your father were the richest man in the world, you would let people know that you are the son or daughter of so and so.

Your Father in heaven is more glorious than anyone can imagine, so why do you keep quiet about Him?

  • Perhaps you are one of those who get to certain circles and hide their faith.

You act as if you are not a child of God in your office or at secular events.

If your father were the richest man in the world, you would use your surname everywhere you go.

You should be proud of your Daddy, telling everyone about Him everywhere you go.

In fact, His glory should be radiating through you so much that anyone that sees you will know that you are a child of God.

Verse 3 of today’s Bible reading says you should declare God’s glory among the heathen, not just when you are in Church amongst Christians.

Verse 10 says that you should tell the people that God reigns; He is the King of Kings and is coming to judge people righteously.

Do you do these things?

Application – God is too glorious for you not to talk about Him. Tell someone about Him today.
