Revelation 4:11You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.”
The significance of this verse is awesome. God is worthy, he and he along is worthy, why? Because he is our Lord and God and creator. The phrase Lord and God means that it is he to whom a person or thing belongs, about which he has power of deciding, the owner who is in control. So if he is worthy because of being "Lord and God" then I must ask myself is he in control of my life? Or is something else in control of my life? Nothing else is worthy, nothing else should be in control.
He is also creator and by his will I was created and have being. God created (formed, designed) us for and by his will. Why? Because is is God's intention that if he is in control of our lives then he plans to work through and in us to accomplish his will of reconciliation. God's desire is to be in relationship with us. God created us to be in relationship with us. He wants to accomplish this by taking our lives and showing others that this can be a reality.
Because He is our Lord and God and our creator. He is worthy to receive glory, honor and power. Glory means to exalt, honor means highest value and power means ability. God is all of these things and nothing I do or do not do changes that about Him. However I can be one who points others to see his glory, honor and power.
Father give me strength today to demonstrate who you are, to be a mirror example of Jesus to others. May my life point people to see your glory, honor and power. May I be open to learn new things and see things I have taken for granted. So that I can better accomplish your will in my life.
